I am an Archer investor from Turkiye since 2023 almost 1,5 year. I admire how you are capable of eVTOL techonology and proud to be your Invsestor.All the Best wishes.
If Sandy is invested I’m going to take a close look @ Archer. I’ve followed a couple of his “Interested” interviews into an investment (relatively small, don’t have much) and been happy about it.
Thank you for the tour. It's nice to see a comparison between Joby and Archer's manufacturing principles. I wonder why they chose a cylindrical cell structure for their battery packs. Prismatic cells have better characteristics for energy density and charge/discharge rates. Also, it would be interesting to know what they are doing for their battery management systems. It's hard to tell from the video how they are monitoring and balancing cells which is incredibly important to prevent cell damage and runoff. On a side note we should have all invested in 8020, looks like every machine they have is built from it 😅.
I do believe this will take off but as one comment said, there are those that will avoid it because of the size of the EVTOL. It is a bit of a scary thing to ride in at hight altitudes. However, there will be enough of a market to be profitable. If you know your history this has been done before, air transport to and from the airport from city centers. cheaper then adding new lanes to roads and or building tunnels to the airport.where this is going to shine is military applications. I see this replacing the Helicopter.
I'm absolutely thrilled to see Munro Live explore the innovative work at Archer Aviation. As an investor in their groundbreaking technology, I am proud to be part of this journey towards revolutionizing urban air mobility. Seeing the dedication to engineering excellence and sustainable solutions like this makes me believe that the spirit of the Wright Brothers lives on. They would surely be proud of how far aviation has come, especially with the advancements in eVTOL technology. Keep pushing the boundaries, Archer Aviation!
Speaking as a meteorologist, weather will constrain flight OPS on occasion. Rains, high winds, vertical wind shear, icing, and lightening strikes come to mind. VTOL near rooftop heliports can be especially dangerous (limited hover time and obstructions). Short flight times, near real-time weather radar, and highly accurate WX forecasts serve to mitigate these risks. But it's likely some special instrumentation and procedures will be needed at some heliports (FAA Certification?) Also flying is uncomfortable and scary for some who avoid small aircraft travel like the plague. Believe e-VTOL market way overstated by most. Yet love the cool factor and these guys deserve my support so investing some coin at present. What's to say, a fool and his money are soon parted.
People drive and fly in the same conditions everyday. Aircraft use static wicks for lightning strikes which would be rare anyway especially since aircraft avoid flying in storms. So you'll either be stuck in traffic during a storm or waiting it out at the vertiport.
I think flying is just so unusual still that many people aren't as comfortable as they could be. Once it's cheap enough for you to fly every day you'll quickly get over whatever fears for the extra time savings.
@@cmax4692 Yes "meteorologists" are the go to source for estimating future aircraft sales. lol!!!! This guy has never heard of helicopters, or small airplanes.
Interesting. A lot of focus on mass production when there are no producible models and no approved use cases, not to mention customers. What's that old Disney song I keep hearing when these eVTOLS are shown? Oh yeah, from Cinderella: "A dream is a wish your heart makes"
Electric cars and trucks require asphalt roads which are made from toxic oil sludge. This form of potentially carbon-free transport can use grass lawns for takeoff and landing.
😁Sandy, Good day from Goonellabah, NSW, Australia. Thanks, Sandy. When is Archer Aviation going to be in Australia? It would be an aircraft in Australia. I am embarking on a significant six-month journey. I'll be circumnavigating Australia in two CYBERTRUCKs and a Tesla Semi, covering a substantial 22,000 ki ometres. This journey is set to commence at the beginning of Febru y 2025. Elon shall help me. I will have a new video and website at the end of November. - 🤗Cheers, Ian Cleland
I'm not surprised that sandy likes Top gun. When I met him in Muskegon, Michigan and he saw my nuclear submarine hat he immediately saluted me. The Highlander.😊 When I heard sandy wasn't feeling well And him being Scottish like me.I thought I'd put On my best scottish Income. Visit in hopes of cheering him up the Highlander.😊
I would like to know if all these new products are serviceable or they are all throw away at failure. Is everything potted into the airframe, for example?

Those controls scare me -- I would feel a lot better if Archer's CTO included some statement about how you can instantly override the hand-holding for manual attitude control in an emergency. Like the hand-holding is great, but focusing 100% on how the system will not allow you to make any mistakes gives off strong Boeing MCAS vibes.
Complexity and gee whiz manufacturing like 3D printing etc etc is not a positive thing but shows how the basic concept is itself deficient and needs extreme measures to even be tolerable ( trying to make up for the inherent inefficiency of both vertical take off and batteries, the combination is the worst possible) ATOL together with ICE power obsoletes the unthinking mad evtol rush to economic and safety doom. The cost of composite construction seals their fate as virtual hand building cannot be afforded or mass produced.
eVTOL is a neat concept, bit expensive to operate in reality; will need a PPL Instrument to fly in all weather conditions and an A&P license to do BPO/Pre inspection and maintenance.
I want to see a factory tour at BETA in VT! I think they are further along in the process than most EVTOL companies. You might even get a ride in the fixed wing version.
It won't be the price that holds this back commercially, it will be the consumer and weather they are comfortable flying in that or not. Size of planes and ships matter, the bigger they are the more comfortable the average person is with it, its a mind game at that point. but this will work militarily for sure.
This was interesting, but clearly about trying to attract more investors. The reality is this is a couple of decades out for mass adoption. If just 20% of US traffic would go VTOL, the skies would get very crowded and likely annoying most citizens. I will hope AI pilots, safety systems, etc, will prevent most accidents. It will take on serious accident, like crashing into a school, and the industry will find it even harder to reach mass acceptance. No doubt, the first few consumer versions will be for the wealthy the way private helicopters are today. It will be interesting to see how this plays out, but investors should be very cautious about any VTOL company.
I heard Sandy trying to sell his BMW report, so maybe some collaboration and source development is enough reason for Sandy’s visit. I saw some display of a professional development team at Archer that encourages me to keep an eye on this. Only time will tell where this leads.
jaaa watch your framing of thumbnails etc.... if some trolls acuses you of elon fanboy... pictures that resembling matt gaetz, i am kidding but i am not... is a doppleganger coincidence in youtube shorts picture....
Many thanks for another excellent video. Sandy often mentions that saying no in Industry gets you promoted. This struck a chord with me and I remembered of this Ken Robinson quote "If you're not prepared to be wrong, you'll never come up with anything original." I'm not sure if you all have seen his incredible TED Talk. If not you are in for a treat. Enjoy. th-cam.com/video/iG9CE55wbtY/w-d-xo.html
@@helifanodobezanozi7689 A PRE-ORDER is not an order is not money in the bank. Taking something from prototype to product is HARD, its also not been proven in the field with all the assoicated real world teething issues, regulations etc. How long does the battery last what are recharge rates, life etc - This is VERY VERY high risk, VERY. It'll be a long time before you see them selling at volume.
MUNRO live - Sandy , at end of the day e-VTOL has no legs. only a very FEW are doing it. Doing e-VTOL right is very EXPENSIVE and does NOT scale well. THINK about , why in 2024 we dont have PUBLIC Commerical heliports on top of Buildings anymore ? (1970's). very EXPENSIVE to operate & maintain. Expensive COST to customer. Helicopters & e-VTOL cannot operate in BAD weather, high winds, heavy RAIN, Whiteout SNOW. currently LESS convenient than taking BUS, Uber, Taxi. landing pads HAVE TO be away from People & WONT be allowed to Fly above HOMES & City.
Helicopters are naturally going to be more expensive to operate and maintain due to so many moving parts and all the vibrations. E-Vtols are the opposite. They will be flying well above people and homes just like any other type of aircraft does within the rules.
Also, the idea is to COMBINE them with cars. A car will pick you up at your house and take you to your neighborhood landing pad, which can be situated in a vacant lot or on top of a parking structure. (These are electric, so ALL THEY NEED IS A CHARGER!!!) Joby, Archer's competitor will likely partner with Uber, since it was formerly Uber Air. Archer can team up with Waymo or Lyft. Or, they can simply START THEIR OWN CAR SERVICE!!! 😂 As for weather conditions, you don't actually know what weather they are capable of flying in!!!!
Lastly, there is Medivac. Same idea, neighborhood pads, but with ambulances transporting patients. Think about it, in some cities it can take 45min just to reach a patient during rush hour! That time can be cut in half!!!
Thats the thing, Helicopters Failed. You're talking about a different technology and back then they weren't very safe they were moving to fast and cut hella corners. That doesn't need to happen with eVTOLS
Elon should have bought Archer or partnered 2022, I said... few listen. Also their competition over the ocean is now approved for human use, also firefighting. Studied these for 4 years now.
Most have no idea how many flying human taxis we will have 2030... globally. It is already being done in many asian countries, I wont name the company because I want archer to catch up.
@@markplott4820 Lack of safety consideration contributed to the 1970's failures, I'd say it was the main reason imo. But with the Technology of eVtol, I believe things will be different as long as safety is of top priority. Commercially, air taxis ( mainly to airports from busy congested city centers ) search and rescue/ emergency services along with military applications makes the most sense to reach and maintain profitability.

How long does it take to land if a battery gets fire to get out safely?
Why is the battery reject drawer password protected?
So that they don't get lost or get put into a pack by mistake. It's a good move.
If one believe this will be even bigger than Tesla, then $300 share price is not impossible.
Accumulating this for long term.
Just how loud are these going to be? Curious in real world scenarios.
One company has made them quieter than helicopters using a niche blade design.
1st gen is loud, 2nd gen is better than helicopter decibel... I have studied these and reported for years in (communityposts)
VERY loud , like overweight Hummingbird.
@markplot4820 wrong! Quieter than a blow dryer. Almost unnoticeable across other city noise
@JohnnyFive626 - most city will BAN all e- VTOL........lol
Is this the Aircraft with slow moving rotors to keep a quiet flight profile?
We found out how they test the motors and build a battery pack, with a little simulator action. Why not show the Midnight you guys/ gals are building?
0-60 straight up takes how long, how far?
How is this going to handle crosswinds And gusts ?
Same as a multicopter drone. The computers can react a lot quicker than humans.
@ this is going to be epic to fly
JOBY VS ACHR ? WHO IS BETTER MUNRO ?
