    Start in Bangalore…

      I don’t think so maybe in Dubai

    Not going if it’s Boeing

    Sign me up! Everything looks great except for the charging solution should be NACS. As a pilot who has been flying for decades, I would prefer to ride in this e-vtol rather than a helicopter.

    • @TristenHernandez

      November 23, 2025 at 2:14 pm

      Why? Do you think it will be landing at super chargers to recharge? I’m sure it will eventually be NACS but that isn’t important at all at this junction

    I feel like These have been waiting for “certification” for years and may never get approved.

    • @watchonjar

      November 23, 2025 at 2:59 pm

      a handful of them are close to approval, the problem is it takes a really really long time to get new air craft approved let alone a new type of air craft. The FAA has litterally had to write the approval criteria as these things have been through testing.

    WTF? Humans can’t drive let alone fly!!!

  6. @ryanwalters6184

    This is perfect for Charleston, even better if it can land on water

    Gracias por el audio en español es genial ❤

    I don’t want any of these flying Gnats buzzing anywhere near my Neighbourhood.

    I feel like I’m watching a parallel universe where the LA restaurant chain Lemonade started an air taxi run by Google’s Rick Osterloh 😂

  11. @PapaOscarNovember

    November 23, 2025 at 12:53 pm

    How will AI pilot coordinate with the air traffic control, which is not digitalized and relies entirely on verbal communications over FM radios?

  12. @MyTraveLws

    November 23, 2025 at 12:56 pm

    Electric aviation is the future, and we will see many companies competing.

    “Hasps. Very dangerous. You go first.”

  14. @greid9349

    November 23, 2025 at 1:07 pm

    The aircraft is doing something very “automated and predictable” and a “pre- programmed flight”……until it encounters something not predictable like weather. I’ll pass for now

  15. @akshays2504

    Damn this is gorgeous 🫶🏻

  17. @user-tx9zg5mz5p

    You fly on it first😂

  18. @Batlise

    No. Just no.

  19. @watchonjar

    November 23, 2025 at 3:05 pm

    ngl I trust autonomy more then a pilot

  20. @knightfall6492

    November 23, 2025 at 5:39 pm

    I dont think this is going to take off, too much can go wrong

  21. @pujaballer

    November 23, 2025 at 6:02 pm

    So we’re lacking workers for air, traffic, controllers, and these “self flying” vehicles still need a ground controller? Is this the path the aviation community should be taking?

  22. @nriik4081

    November 23, 2025 at 6:38 pm

    Why not turn existing helicopters into auto pilot aircrafts?? 🤔

  23. @72launchpad

    November 23, 2025 at 7:20 pm

    “Everything is safe” …. Thats what they say about airlines until they go screaming into the ground.

  24. @ryanmakers

    November 23, 2025 at 7:25 pm

    People always fear new technology, but in 10-15 years, we won’t think twice about riding in one of these or purchasing an autonomous car. Especially when we start seeing the end of traffic jams.

  25. @MiKE_CCCLXV

    November 23, 2025 at 8:12 pm

    And if it “accidentally” touches down in the middle of a busy interstate? 🤔

  26. @SimecekMayor

    November 24, 2025 at 5:02 am

    Corvix token shows real use case depth — not just buzzwords.

  27. @ClassesMoga

    November 24, 2025 at 5:03 am

    AI narratives are heating up again, and Corvix is perfectly positioned.

  28. @FrancescJavier-q9e

    November 24, 2025 at 5:03 am

    Corvix CRV presale phase won’t last forever.

  29. @PreeyaLeblanc

    November 24, 2025 at 5:03 am

    This isn’t just another hype project — CRV Corvix is building real AI integration.

  30. @MichalePrado

    November 24, 2025 at 5:03 am

    The market structure forming around Corvix CRV reminds me of early breakout patterns.

  31. @WhaiMclurg

    November 24, 2025 at 5:03 am

    Corvix token still has plenty of room to grow. 🚀

  32. @WhaiChacon

    November 24, 2025 at 5:04 am

    Corvix token has a real shot at becoming a household name in DeFi. 🌟

  33. @BlaiseTomlin

    November 24, 2025 at 5:04 am

    The use case of CRV Corvix goes beyond trading — it’s about smarter decentralized tools.

  34. @ErickKraines

    November 24, 2025 at 5:04 am

    Corvix token continues to trend on smaller crypto forums.

  35. @FrankumBritton-d5o

    November 24, 2025 at 5:04 am

    I think Corvix CRV could set new standards in AI-driven token ecosystems.

  36. @RussPetersen-z7r

    November 24, 2025 at 5:04 am

    Long-term thinkers will understand the vision behind Corvix CRV.

  37. @SoshiMyklatun

    November 24, 2025 at 5:04 am

    Corvix presale continues to attract early adopters.

  38. @EstrellaAdela

    November 24, 2025 at 5:05 am

    People will look back at Corvix presale as an obvious buy.

  39. @MonaBishop-h3x

  41. @megapangolin1093

    November 24, 2025 at 9:36 am

    Yep, let it happen. Well done, Whisk, love the whole thing. Nothing to lose, no human error involved. I like the individual emergency exits. Good that AI isnt integrated. Great video.

  42. @M.Busneina

    November 24, 2025 at 11:02 am

    well, using “put you down” was not the best phrase to use here I gues 🤔

  43. @rickypickles5046

    November 24, 2025 at 11:21 am

    First, we already have flying cars. They’re called helicopters. Second, adding a million flying cars would increase the number of deaths from accidents significantly because midair collisions would be far worse than a car crash. Third, the FAA is understaffed as it is. With the coming self-driving car revolution coming soon, flying cars will be unnecessary. Sorry.

  44. @bigboss-oz2vi

    November 24, 2025 at 11:49 am

    i dont want to die

  45. @CNCHobbyistGregory

    November 24, 2025 at 12:22 pm

    I am ready. It’ll take a while to get used to no pilot. I guess you’ll book a flight. Then walk out and realize this is your plane.

  46. @decide2think

    November 24, 2025 at 1:00 pm

    One major consideration not mentioned was that the electric motors used in this new type helicopter/ plane is quieter than the historical gas driven motor helicopters. True? That will be a significant improvement in flying enjoyment!

  47. @MatrixRoland

    November 24, 2025 at 2:11 pm

    Now you can die alone. No thanks

  48. @jrleon9699

    November 24, 2025 at 5:16 pm

    so elicopters

  49. @YanKostowsky

    November 24, 2025 at 5:40 pm

    She talks about future while living in the past 😂 I wonder if pork can be eaten inside. Would she arouse this guy by showing her hair ?

  50. @ropro9817

    November 24, 2025 at 6:12 pm

    Another stupid tech fad that I hope dies really soon… 😒
