More impressive technology coming out of Israel.
They seem to be on the cutting edge of e-aviation. IIRC they had an e-plane, the Eviation Alice test fly near me at Moses Lake (ironically enough) about a year ago.
I still don’t think there is a viable use for these e-planes and eVTOLS but if and when there is it’s good Israel will be at the forefront.
As the pictures show, the occupants sit right inline with rotors. The lightweight airframe and canopy will not stop slung rotor/prop blades in the event of a failure or crash. Fly these aerial food processors at your own peril!
