EHang EH216-S won the world’s first eVTOL triple certificate, leading a new era of unmanned aviation

In the news on April 7, 2022, EHang Intelligent EH216-S unmanned aerial vehicle system recently successfully obtained a production license at the Guangzhou headquarters of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, marking the world’s first eVTOL (electric vertical Takeoff and landing) aircraft was officially born. EH216-S has passed strict audits and received all necessary qualifications for commercial operation. This milestone means that EH216-S has become a customized transportation solution, providing a more efficient, flexible and convenient option for urban transportation services and logistics operations.

Commercial operation of aircraft usually requires obtaining three types of certificates, namely type certificate (TC), airworthiness certificate (AC) and production license (PC). At present, EH216-S has successfully obtained the type certificate and standard airworthiness certificate. The issuance of this production license further consolidates its leading position in the global eVTOL field.

#The technical specifications of the EH216-S are also quite impressive. According to the editor's understanding, the aircraft has a fuselage length of 5.73 meters and a height of 1.93 meters. It has a short charging time and can be fully charged in just two hours. Its fastest flight speed can reach 130 kilometers/hour, its endurance time is 25 minutes, and its design range is 30 kilometers. These parameters make EH216-S stand out among similar products and demonstrate strong competitiveness.

EH216-S has broad application prospects and can be widely used in many fields such as manned transportation, tourism, logistics and transportation, and medical emergency. Currently, the aircraft has completed more than 40,000 safe flights in 14 countries around the world, proving its excellent performance and reliability. At the same time, the price of EH216-S is also quite reasonable, only 2.39 million yuan, which further enhances its market appeal.

EH216-S adopts a number of cutting-edge technologies in terms of safety. It adopts a gull-wing door design and is equipped with F1 racing-like ergonomic seats in the cabin to provide passengers with a comfortable riding experience. At the same time, all key flight components of the aircraft adopt a full backup design, including the flight control system, various sensors, power system, battery and its management system, etc. This design ensures that even if a component fails during flight, the backup component can immediately and seamlessly take over, ensuring the smooth flight of the aircraft and the safety of passengers.
