On May 21st, AutoFlight accomplished a demonstration flight featuring a hybrid formation of three aircraft, comprising one V5000 Tianji Dragon and two V2000 series aircraft. This flight successfully tested and confirmed critical elements such as communication links and flight path coordination among multiple eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing) platform models, thereby gathering invaluable insights for collaborative operations involving multiple aircraft. The V5000CGH, a freight variant within the V5000 series, boasts a maximum takeoff weight of 5,700 kilograms, a top speed of 280 kilometers per hour, a cargo hold volume exceeding 14 cubic meters, a maximum payload capacity of 1.5 tons, and a range extending up to 1,500 kilometers. These specifications render it suitable for a wide array of applications, including emergency rescue missions, offshore engineering support, and heavy-duty regional logistics operations. Presently, AutoFlight is diligently progressing through the airworthiness certification process for the V5000CGH. The company’s airworthiness team brings a wealth of experience to the table, having previously obtained three airworthiness certificates for the 2-ton CarryO model and currently being engaged in the compliance verification phase for the 6-seat passenger variant, the V2000EM.
