First full autonomous City Airbus flight

Only two buttons to push and the #CityAirbus demonstrator performed its first fully automatic flight: take off, stabilisation in flight and landing.

At the end of August, it will be transferred to Manching for forward flight trials in a secure environment where it can further expand its flight envelope.

CityAirbus is an all-electric, four-seat, multicopter vehicle demonstrator that focuses on advancing remotely piloted electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) flight.
