Safety Features

The aircraft can take over the flying of the aircraft, if the passenger makes a mistake during flight because the aircraft will have Artificial Intelligence (AI) to keep the passenger safe. The aircraft is also self-balancing. Distributed Electric Propulsion (DEP), provides safety through redundancy for its passengers and/or cargo. DEP means having multiple propellers and motors on the aircraft so if one or more motors or propellers fail, the other working motors and propellers can safely land the aircraft.
