Joby Aviation Flies in NYC

[@PeterParker-wj3cr]

This looks so cool in the real life environment!

[@BVSLR]

Super cool hearing the boats idling louder than the aircraft flying by and the cars on the roads louder than the aircraft!

[@alexorehowski3387]

It is by no means "quiet". You don't hear because of distance. Aircraft noise comes mostly from propeller not engine. DJI drone is small but still loud.

[@TheBagOfHolding]

A fart next you your ear would be louder than a fire cracker on the other side of the river. It would be louder with a load but they don't trust it carry weight.

With a dB meter and a video camera we went to the Joby and Archer test sites in California. We reported on the comparison in this KZbin video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHfKpnhopryDnM0

[@BlueEyed888]

Wow that thing is quiet, congrats to all JOBY peeps! 😊

An early 'Happy Thanksgiving!' to all the people at JOBY, in NY, and at IoT!!

A rising 💫 in NYC ❤in the years to come !🎉 Keep up the good work ❤Fly Joby❤

[@jakobb598]

Great views!

[@Raydio6]

Looks like it flies great! Stable and maneuverable

[@whiskey-f1p]

Wow, cool to see. Funny enough I took a heli ride around NYC about 8 years ago from that exact same platform!

Awesome!!!!!

Congratulations Joby Aviation!

[@알랑드롱-y1n]

와 엄청 조용하네요 ^^

[@JFrames]

How is it possible that it is so quite? A normal drone is also quite loud and this thing is 100x bigger than a regular consumer drone.

[@tomdom6345]

Special rotors that have been made to produce less sound. Crazy

[@TheBagOfHolding]

Maybe editing.

[@brianhancock7021]

@@TheBagOfHolding Nope, I've seen it in person several times. It is indeed extremely quiet. One of the key things they tested early on was a good rotor design. Last thing you want is another rotodyne.

[@TheBagOfHolding]

@@brianhancock7021 I think joby is a scam to dupe investors.

[@Tom-kw6km]

The video speed up to mark 2:28 is too slow. Changing it to 1.75 feels about right. After that the 'normal speed' looks good too.

[@TheBagOfHolding]

Jump cut edited short flights again. Show a full flight takeoff travel and land unedited.

[@sthefreak2094]

So does the aircraft just appear in its location or does it recharge 10 times to get to said location?

[@TheBagOfHolding]

@@sthefreak2094 does it wobble straight out and back real fast and then they edit to make it look like it's cruising around in stable flight?

[@steve8104]

@@TheBagOfHolding why does the independent or the sun or reuters or fox use edits like this? theres so many third party videos of this flight, please go ahead and find me the version of your story. I was there so I would love to see your version of the events. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWmpmnptjLyLZpY

[@TheBagOfHolding]

@@steve8104 why did they all cover theranos and say it could do something? It looks cool. Can you find any multirotor evtol on earth that show a man lifted in the air for 3 minutes? They would show it. Are there any official distance or time records for a man riding a giant battery? The best one is an electric helicopter. Do you think it can carry a person 5 miles away? Why wouldn't they show it? They are on the stock market and that would make the price rocket to the moon.

[@TheBagOfHolding]

​@@steve8104 did you record it? Of course not. There is no pilot in there. It can barely fly without that weight.

[@DobirHassan]

Good looking

It was a fruit. The result what they have done.

Well, I know where my money is going when I win the big one.

[@skyloveglobalnelsonbarbonc8009]

Yesterdays dream of flying taxi is todays passsion globalskylove❤😮😮🎉

[@vlada]

So this electric helicopter will replace.... regular helicopters. For the same people who already use a helicopter service from JFK to Manhattan. Good for this small niche but stop praising for being a solution to any global problems. Still going to need a car to go to work, to drop kicked off a school, take them to practices, tournaments, go visit parents and all the thousands of uses for personal vehicles. No need to oversell an interesting innovation in the helicopter industry. This is about the 30,000 helicopters trips that tourists and rich folks annually and the loud noise they make. This new machine would solve THIS particular problem, not the delusional "world saving" claims.

[@keriddunk1520]

One step at a time my friend

[@silverwolf2643]

Helicopter certainly doesn't run that smooth dude. Evtols will be alternative to airplanes for shorter distances. Airplane are way bigger and more problematic to handle. This will be like cross country taxis, especially in Europe.

[@zachflannery6750]

​@@silverwolf2643yeah for sure and one of joby partners Uber is working on their own that looks like a bus won't be available till 2035 but joby and archers is planning for first commercial flights in early 2025

[@alexorehowski3387]

8 hour charging for 10 minute trip unless you can hook up to a power plant directly. They will need a nuclear plant in every major airport.

[@only4posting]

It's almost satisfying, seeing so many delusional people, who think the planet will blow up in 10 years, unless people buy electric cars... and battery- powered helicopters... In 2022, with just a few electric cars on the roads, europe already had to cut electricity in a ton of places and areas... Without electric cars, with the current electrical infrastructure, and the power sources like dams, etc, countries barely have enough power for everybody... and people must choose between AC or a cold fridge ! When all the activists and rich people have purchased a car, that's when things are going to be funny : cities will have to build mini nuclear plants, to power, eg, 1000 cars charging at the same time :) And we're talking about slow charges ! If people want to use 400, or 800 volt chargers, for super fast charge, every single block, or neighborhood , will require its own dam, or par plant ! Now, imagine 5 years from now, since cities, with 1 million cars charging at the same time.

[@MrPilotStunts]

Why are you pulling information out of your butt? It takes 10 minutes to get 25 miles of range. And one hour for full charge. You're terribly out of date.
