This talk introduces the Sora S-1, a next-generation electric tiltrotor developed to make aerial mobility both affordable and scalable. It will examine the core engineering challenges—battery integration, rotor and electric propulsion design, and lightweight structures—while exploring how such technology can deliver equitable access to fast and sustainable transport.
How to reach the lecture theatre (School of Engineering, Z-block, 3rd floor, room 3Z015):
