Skyryse One

It's no secret that it's much more difficult to control a helicopter than an airplane. For those who still decided to master this profession, Skyryse offers to purchase a helicopter One from her for only ... $ 1.8 million. Over the eight years of its existence, the company has developed a semi-autonomous piloting system that can be adapted for modern helicopters.

The SkyOS helicopter control system replaces the usual mechanical controls — lever, cyclic knob, throttle and track control pedals — with electronic control "by wire".

However, according to Skyryse, we are not talking about a complete replacement of the pilot. He will still control the helicopter using the four-axis control stick. SkyOS only analyzes human actions in a specific situation and, for example, is able to ensure that the helicopter freezes if the pilot releases the control stick. Or, if the engine power fails, the system will switch to autorotation mode, after which it will become much easier for the pilot to land. In order to master the Skyryse One, it takes only 20 hours of flight time (provided that you already have a license to fly the aircraft).
