Wingless Transporter Breaks 'Audio Barrier' W/ 300-Mi. Reach Using Nasa-Proven Thrusters
Out of stealth development, a new way of personal mobility is revealed past Applied eVTOL Concepts. The Epiphany™ Transporter evokes dreams of Aladdin's Magic Carpet, providing fast, door-to-door, airborne transport amongst VTOL (Vertical Take-Off too Landing) capability. In lieu of long, burdensome wings, the compact advanced vehicle configuration vaunts morphing, dual-style, ducted thrusters enabling it to hover similar a helicopter, too reach efficient high-speed cruise flight like an plane.
Key to its impressive utility in addition to vast potential commercial appeal is its predicted 300+ mile-range, exciting 160-mph elevation speed, and exceptionally quiet, neighbor-friendly audio (< 55 dB @ l'). The Epiphany Transporter can arrange two people, their luggage, addition golf clubs! Intended to live simple and safety to function, in addition to near the size of a Tesla Model 'south' machine, it fits into a standard ane-motorcar garage amongst its thrusters folded upwards.
Originally developed nether a $five.i meg DARPA grant, the NASA-proven ducted thrusters take undergone over a quarter-century of refinement through total-scale flight testing inwards wind tunnels as well as several prototype manned vehicles. According to Michael Moshier, Founder, CEO in addition to Lead Designer of Applied eVTOL Concepts. "We take every reason to believe inwards the power of our proprietary, field-proven ducted thrusters, together with leading-edge vehicle blueprint, to perform in flight as expected."
Joined at the hip with Rob Bulaga, the projection'second Chief Engineer together with Senior Aerodynamicist, the Moshier-Bulaga squad previously worked together on their ducted fan powered SoloTrek XFV aircraft, a ane-individual, strap-on, gas-fueled, personal flight car. In 2001, the device won Time Magazine's 'Invention-Of-The-Year' laurels, along with many other earth-wide accolades, and today it remains on permanent display at the Hiller Aviation Museum inwards San Carlos, California.
Now the team's focus is on personal eVTOL aircraft for UAM (Urban Air Mobility) using advanced-engineering science electric motors too batteries. The CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) computer model, developed past Bulaga, has been refined over the terminal 25 years. "Today, it consistently together with accurately predicts our thruster functioning within ii% of real-world testing," says Bulaga.
The Epiphany Transporter is the consequence of an intense alliance between the two men over the last several years working inward virtual stealth manner. Similar to the vehicle'sec "distributed" propulsion pattern, their earth-grade, co-evolution partners are distributed inward locations around the world, working collaboratively towards the total-scale manned prototype car.
