The Ryse Recon is designed more for woods and vineyards, but 'Elvis' was right at home in Sin City in this 63 mph eVTOL.
With six independent electric motors and batteries, the aircraft can climb to 10,000 feet, but is typically flown at 100 to 125 feet above ground level, with a self-restricted top speed of 63 mph. At a cruising speed of 35 knots, it will have a projected range of about 10 miles for a 25-minute run.Despite the Sin City introduction, the Recon is designed for rural use. “We see it working large vineyards, farms or ranches,” says Kowitz.
The 286-lb. Recon falls under the FAA’s ultralight category, requiring no pilot’s license, but with a weight restriction of 250 lbs. Six individual motors and propellers, all independently controlled, hover and fly the aircraft, offering redundancy in case one motor fails. “It’s designed for non-pilots who don’t need to understand aerodynamics,” says Kowitz. “The two control sticks are designed for very simplified operations—similar to using a backhoe.
The avionics include integrated GPS, inertial navigation systems and attitude reference and heading systems. Recon also has joystick controls and a touchscreen that work independently of each other, again for redundancy. “The console’s Bluetooth-enabled so you can make phone calls on it,” says Kowitz.Courtesy Ryse Aerotechnology
Ryse has plans to start production in the third quarter, and is now taking reservations on its website. The Ohio production facility will build 100 units this year, says Kowitz, and ramp up to 1,000 next year. “Initially, we’ll sell direct to consumers but we’re setting up farm and sports distribution channels in our primary target markets,” he says.
