Fantastic and I look forward to the day that I can ride in one, but the only issue I can see is it’s grounded footprint; you’ll need a large drive for you want to be dropped off at home and even businesses will need a large area of parking lot
I would like to have heard more about the FAA aircraft certification progress. What are the contingency procedures in the Joby for critical systems failures? What happens if a motor fails? What happens if a propeller gets stuck in a horizontal or non-vertical position? Does the aircraft then have to land like a conventional airplane? If so, where? How much battery reserves (time) does it require at its planned landing time? Lots of questions. Hopefully the answers are coming…?
How much luggage would you be allowed to bring? If you search it, it says 1000lb load. With an avg weight of Americans at 185lbs (multiplied by 5), it doesnt leave much at all.
Carbon fiber manufacturing is cool, but it’s been around for 50 years and not exactly new tech or this aircraft. Same with flight simulators. I was hoping they spend more time on the stuff I was really curious about, but they rushed through it. How exactly is it quieter, is it spinning slower? Is it the blade tips? How quiet is it? Like what are the decibels? How many engines can it loose and still fly? How about when it’s hovering? I have lots of doubts because on my small drone, any engine failure causes it to flip and fall out of the sky. I would love to have seen test video to prove it can still fly with those failures.
It sounds like a big leaf blower or giant electric weed trimmer, like a big air whoosh with an electric whine. There is no big helicopter thumping or airplane engine noise that travel so far. When it flies overhead at 1000 feet it's pretty quiet; probably barely audible when it's windy. When it's taking off and you're nearby it's not so quiet, but much better than normal aircraft. They manage it with redesigned wingtips of the props and spinning them slower. They can do that because they have lots of propellers providing lift. Electric propulsion systems are also inherently quieter than reciprocating engines. Joby has fewer propellers than other EVTOLs, so they may have less redundancy. Most have eight props, some even more. Joby can lose all engines and glide in if it's within glide-reach of a runway or field. It can lose one engine for sure and still land vertically. I have to think it could lose two and land vertically, but I'm not sure if it can lose two front engines on the same side. It can probably lose over 50% of its engines and land horizontally like an airplane. Having six tilt propellers plus wings with three-axis stability and sophisticated control systems and software make it nothing like hobby drones. These electric motors also are double motors, with two separate windings in one unit. If one unit fails, it powers it's other unit, and doesn't miss a beat. Other EVTOLs have double props hooked to one unit, one on top and the other below it. They all also have three or more battery arrays with three or more different controllers that should fail for different reasons. These things are far more redundant than any other aircraft. And electric propulsion is far more reliable and needs less maintenance than conventional propulsion systems.
Don't be curious, you have to act, don't be smart, you can think of problems, Chinese engineers can also think of, you think you are smarter than the Chinese?
Needs to be simplified. The Chinese already have a 2 passenger autonomous version of this. Contrary to what some people below are saying autonomous air taxis are the wave of the future. Why drive, when you can fly everywhere.. The vast majority of Americans don't go more than 40 to 50 miles in a day, so a pay to play autonomous air taxi will eventually replace most cars and roads. Autonomous air taxis and humanoid robots are coming soon and about to change everything...
"Easy to fly" is a double edged sword - too many autopilot systems stop working and suddenly the pilot doesn't know how to safely descend in an emergency.
@@thisisreallife9026 I’m not so sure. The mechanics seem much simpler than a helicopter. Even if the avionics are more complex. And even if multiple engines fail it can still land. Helicopters are notoriously dangerous and difficult to maintain. I predict eVTOLs will largely replace them in the future.
I wonder where are they going to park while waiting for the passenger? The area it occupies is bigger than a truck, so waiting for passenger in Manhattan would be difficult. Aside from that, pretty cool industry, which I hope will work.
probably mentioned below. But what about real world weather? you book your flight for your final leg home and then a nasty snow squall hits. Would you be stranded at airport?
Surely we will see these "air taxis" take flight only in the bigger, busier cities first as airport transfer vehicles before they trickle down to those smaller cities and rural areas that have fewer established transit services and really need them (like Las Vegas, NV and Emporia, VA). Los Angeles and New York City will, inevitably, be first in line. But I will keep following updates on the service, and we will see how well it performs in the transit/travel market.
Not a taxi. These Giant Drones that can carry a few humans will not fix transportation for the masses. Its real goal is to be a cheaper alternative to helicopter. Still only rich people will be able to afford it. I think we will see Giant Drones ferry the rich over specific routes that avoid places with a lot of buildings or people on the ground.
Definitely let them fly from one compound to another and not have to interact or even see the underclass on the street. A dream come true for the modern oligarch.
By that logic we should have also stopped building these expensive automotive vehicles a 100 years ago, because they were only for rich people anyways. It's actually rich people who pay for the necessary development cost to make high-tech scalable and therefore cheap.
@@pelleban the VTOL cannot counter rotate so looses one critical safety feature. Wouldn’t it be better to develop a E Helicopter for future energy consumption?
@@glennlewman4186 Not sure but if it were I think they would. Range is probably the biggest thing, also a multiple engine type that can fly with 2 engines malfunctioning is probably safer than helicopter. Afaik helicopter are very unsafe relativ other plane types. But if I'm not mistaken traditional vtols like the Osprey have terrible safety records, prone to crashes, however these things ca fly with 2 malfunctioning engines and electrical engines dont fail as easily as combustion engines.
It will always be next year. Show it carrying the weight necessary the distance necessary one year and then i might believe people will ride them next year.
Amazing. Technology. It's a difficult and a long road to get this certified and being used in production, but any endeavour of such significance is not easy. Joby is doing all the right things to make air taxis a normal thing - production, training, contracts with other players. Go go Joby.
Finally!!! Its just an electric helicopter and considering how bad climate change is gonna get, the crosswinds will make this thing fall from the sky like a fly
Helicopters have 1 main rotor and 1 tail tail rotor which means no failsafe. In this case there are multiple props which allows for multiple failsafe options. Way safer + autonomy helps navigate better than humans although people will be navigating and overseeing the systems.
oooo, u've explained everything except that most important thing and thats related about elecric motors, they have how much power and works for how far that go? after how long does it need be recharge and what is capacity of the battery? that has how many km/hr speed?
I don't care about the technology of their eVTOLs. If they keep the name JOBY, the business won't take off. I know it's "just a name", but a company's name can make or break a company.
Great Idea, But where can you travel less than 100 miles that can't travel faster by car? Round trip from Austin to San Antonio is 145-170 miles round trip. Downtown Houston to Katy? 45 miles. Again why? Cost prohibited. In my opinion.
@matthewbarry7026 OK. But the cost to keep this thing charged Is Significant. You have to burn way more fossil fuel. A puddle jumper is way more cheaper in the long and short run. Unless they pair this with a micro nuclear power plant. ($$!) 🤔🤣😂 Solar ain't reliable enough to depend on. I have a Tesla it's cool but I charge it way more often than I fueled my ICE car.

@@jizzlecizzle1388 and what a fascinating piece this would have been had they delved into that and the many other aspects of actually making this fantasy a reality
That sound test was a different model with different motors that had gears and it crashed. The new craft is different and doesn't have gears. The sound will be different and louder if its carrying a load. Empty would be quieter but that shouldn't be the test.
@David0gden how much weight is it carrying and how long does it stay in the air? Take a video of it if it's longer than 2 minutes because that's longer than joby ever shows. The sound doesn't matter if it can't lift the necessary load and move it somewhere. The more it lifts the louder it would be. I think joby is going to go down like a lilium if they don't prove they can move something somewhere soon. I know they can lift 1 man for at least a minute but is that it? Please take an unedited video of the entire time its airborne of it happens frequently and you are telling the truth.

I sat there and watched the perfect Oct night looking at the sky, empty blue, memorising with it's space that is free for everyone. Then I thought we are approaching the era when it is about to end.
The human race must and will progress. But in that progression we also lose much. And the days that the night skies are filled with these things are something I look forward to with utter dread.
Wasn't similar with cars? E.g. you had a house, a cottage and an open field with wilderness. Now in many places there are motorways and other roads
@@sebastianzukowski7985 most human beings don't want to live next to a motorway or major road😂
Of course they don't, but sometimes it's unavoidable. These also appeared over time, same as flying vehicles will.
@@sebastianzukowski7985 I'm in stoke Newington looking at the moon and a clear sky. It gives me peace and freedom of spirit to see that space. In 10-20 years that will be gone. I've dreaded it for a long time to be honest as it's that close.
We need some escape from a city and the sky is the best we have
Don’t worry mate these won’t be around Stoke Newington for awhile 😂 enjoy your clear night skies
It's very misleading to ignore the addition of their composite epoxy, making all the parts terrible for the environment. You'll be making videos about how we scrap all the carbon composite parts in a few years...
They have these things called helicopters….
Autopilot would be nice
Airtaxis exist! They are called Helicopters…..
It must be full autopilot
How it’s made is irrelevant compared to how it will actually work in the real world. This report leaping from “maybe there will be custom landing pads” to “this could be available next year” was just wild. Please tell me they at least paid you for this ad.
No, it's not.
Joby is working on the vehicle.
Others on the vertiports.
The same way companies working on cell phone are, most of the time, separate from those providing the service, the network.
@@jizzlecizzle1388 and what a fascinating piece this would have been had they delved into that and the many other aspects of actually making this fantasy a reality
@@BusterDarcyit would be fascinating if they lifted some weight and moved it somewhere one of these years.
That sound test was a different model with different motors that had gears and it crashed. The new craft is different and doesn't have gears. The sound will be different and louder if its carrying a load. Empty would be quieter but that shouldn't be the test.
@David0gden how much weight is it carrying and how long does it stay in the air? Take a video of it if it's longer than 2 minutes because that's longer than joby ever shows. The sound doesn't matter if it can't lift the necessary load and move it somewhere. The more it lifts the louder it would be. I think joby is going to go down like a lilium if they don't prove they can move something somewhere soon. I know they can lift 1 man for at least a minute but is that it? Please take an unedited video of the entire time its airborne of it happens frequently and you are telling the truth.
@David0gden question: what is the difference between joby and lilium?
Answer: a year.
Being honest is cool, dude.
@David0gden umm no they were actually a hoax.
@@David0gden not jets, ducted fans and it ended up being all lies. Marketing and lies. Like this.
@@David0gden lilium is out of buisness, they are bankrupt. This one will be after archer goes. They aren't competing they depend on eachother to keep up the charade that it's possible.
To the moon ~
For rich people.
This product is a solution to a non-existent problem 🤑
I think if this became affordable or even a taxi service. I would alleviate ground traffic for lots of others. So not entirely a waste of time
@@capsulecorp2309, it won't alleviate road traffic outside of very specific areas.
There's virtually no chance it will become a solution for mass transit.
There're already people paying for heli taxi.
Other riche people would select this solution to avoid traffic, instead of, currently, ordering a chauffeur.
Traffic is a present problem, but some places reached the limit on lane expansions.
@@Bodan_Takanuva 😒
The CEO hasnt answered a single question as it was asked lol
He's not the CEO
Imagine getting in a flying car in West Virginia and Kentucky and Ohio and they sell them at all the car dealerships in West Virginia and Kentucky and Ohio
Bet they could make a submarine so's we can go see the titanic.
Her question was "How do you close the door?". Really?
Not me.
Amazon air
Who is demanding air taxis as economies are about to enter a multi year recession? Why would people who need such a service transition from a certified reliable helicopter with a proven safety record?
When will india become like this
When tesla comes this business.. near days.. another fear to this company 😢
will pilots lose their jobs soon?
Бесплатно добро раздают? А как же баланс во Вселенной! Сколько добра столько и зла!
So when it crashes the carbon fibers will protect me? 😂
Eventually, maybe SOMEONE will ask about the glide ratio of a fully loaded JOBY..................
