Elettronica TECH · Convertitori DC-DC per sistemi ausiliari di potenza di alta affidabilità per eVTOL - Elettronica TECHI velivoli elettrici eVTOL sono in sviluppo per il trasporto di passeggeri. In queste applicazioni, i convertitori DC-DC sono utilizzati.

While the #electric #aviation industry is waiting on next-gen #battery cells, #Aionics is betting that tweaks to the electrolyte of existing cells could make thermal runaway less likely and improve power delivery at low states of charge. More details about this and their new agreement with an #eVTOL developer in my latest dispatch for The Air Current: theaircurrent.com/feed/dispatc

I'm constantly surprised that the #autogyro design isn't used for any of these.

It's proven technology (older than the helicopter), can be made much safer and simpler than a helicopter (the early ones were safer than planes), they are much quieter and even power loss is not often a big deal. Vertical takeoff can be done with various mechanisms.
