How Quiet Will Joby's Electric Air Taxi Be in NYC?

We've spent more than ten years developing our eVTOL aircraft with a particular focus on acoustics. In this video, we share a comparison between today's helicopters and the Joby aircraft flying from JFK Airport to Manhattan, based on real acoustics data measured in partnership with NASA.

Congratulations, Joby for creating this amazing machine.

Imagine truly sustainable aviation

pretty amazing.

[@tayfunozisik8349]

Absolutely great achievement. Also can you do similar video for inside the cabin. Or we still have to use noise canceling headsets?

This is truly exciting The aircraft looks and sounds amazing! 1:43 wow that’s quiet Looks like a blast to fly(rc/fpv pilot) Super stable and maneuverable I invested in Joby when they went public because I believe in the company Thank you for innovating I would love to become a part of the team(CAD designer) Raydio⚡️

Is that the new gearless motor? It looks like the old test from the one that crashed. The sound would be louder with a load.

I will miss the sound of the UH-1 Huey. The sound of freedom!

Amazing how much it sounds like a muzak track or a drum solo . the overflights of the other aircraft all sound way less than annoying than in real life - therefore the Joby is likely also 'toned down' . The independent recording at Marino airport was anything but quiet - it is in hover and take off/climb that counts - conspicuously absent.

It's marketing drek. Were you expecting something different?

[@neutrino78x]

isn't the marino airport recording loud because of wind on the microphone?

[@ob2522]

That's a bit misleading. How's the sound in VTOL mode?

[@neutrino78x]

they have a video of that on their channel. While taking off, from 100 yards away it's 55 dB

[@mightsnow3654]

If blade is already failing what makes you think that Joby Aviation will not fail. I believe in the end eVTOL is a race to the bottom.

[@P61guy61]

Probably as annoying at the music in this video.
