- Eight Evolito engines will be mounted across the front of the wing.
- These engines will provide power to eight propellers.
- The engines are designed for aerospace-grade reliability and efficiency.
Our production contract with Evolito is a significant step forward for our vision for Direct Aviation—safe, quiet, and affordable air mobility that connects communities in ways never before possible.
