Building Toward a Flight-Tested Prototype

We welcome partners who want to help take Flying Squirrel from concept to validated hardware.

Current phase

Immediate engineering work

  • Mass budget closure, intake/CFD study, and rotor-hub compliance analysis
  • Engine selection and chain-transmission design
  • Fan gimbal design, motor sizing, and HV bus / battery thermal design
  • 300 km mission recalculation, drag estimate, and air-cushion mode validation
What we're raising for

Turning targets into validated hardware

  • Fund the engineering validation program above through a flight-representative subsystem test campaign
  • Build and test a powered prototype to confirm the power balance and performance targets on this site
  • Establish the supply chain and partnerships needed to move from prototype to certifiable design
