What does it take to transition from hover to winged flight? Let us show you!
There’s a lot of talk about eVTOL aircraft and transitions, and for good reason! Transitioning from hover to winged flight is not as easy as it sounds.
In 2017, we made the first piloted eVTOL transition with our 3rd generation aircraft. We began with a hover, transitioned to winged flight, then back to hover for landing… and the landscape of aviation was forever changed.

About Wisk's Journey to Everyday Flight for Everyone Video Campaign:
For more than a decade, we’ve been designing, testing and flying 5 generations of aircraft, making Wisk an industry-recognized leader in eVTOL flight. However, we have always celebrated these milestones internally and have never publicly shared the moments that have led us to where we are. We’re changing that. Through this new video series, we’re sharing the milestones and industry-firsts that we’ve accomplished as part of our broader mission to make everyday flight a reality for everyone. We hope you enjoy watching!
