Archer Achieves First Full Transition Flight With Its Maker eVTOL Demonstrator Aircraft
Archer Aviation has successfully conducted the first-ever transition flight with its Maker eVTOL technology demonstrator aircraft, moving from vertical hover to horizontal, wing-borne cruise mode.
Just under 12 months after making its first hover flight in December 2021 (shown here), Archer's two-seat Maker eVTOL technology demonstrator achieved its first full transition from vertical hover to wing-borne cruise flight. (Image: Archer)
