- On the Safety features – Jetson include the ability to keep flying after 1 motor failure, hands-free hover and emergency functions, redundant battery propulsion, a ballistic parachute with rapid deployment, and a radar-sensor auto-landing system. Jetson also published a separate update on its airframe parachute system with test deployments. Their published report says that they repeatedly achieved 11.02 miles at a cruise speed of 60 km/h, consistent with about a 18-20 minute endurance window depending on conditions and pilot weight. – Rohan Paul
- Max flight time last than 20 minutes max range less than 10 miles? Need those numbers to be at least 300% better for it to be anything other than a toy for the uber wealthy that they play with once a year. – Jake Chapman
Grok on this – – The claims in the post are mostly accurate, with a couple of minor caveats based on the latest available information:
- The Jetson ONE is a real personal eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing) aircraft from Jetson Aero, with the listed features like backup batteries (redundant propulsion system), ballistic parachute, radar-assisted auto-landing, and a top speed of 102 km/h (63 mph).
- The current price is $148,000 (increased from $128,000 in early November 2025). It requires an $8,000 non-refundable deposit to reserve a unit. Due to high demand, new orders are for delivery in 2028 or later.
The Jetson ONE qualifies as an ultralight aircraft under FAA Part 103 regulations in the US, so no pilot’s license is required to operate it.
However, the manufacturer provides mandatory training to ensure safe operation. Sources vary on the exact duration—official materials describe the controls as intuitive enough to learn in under 5 minutes (or up to 50 minutes for ground training),
while some reports mention a few hours, a full day, or up to 5 days of training.
Completing the manufacturer’s provided training (whatever its length) qualifies you to legally pilot it in the US without further certification, as long as you adhere to Part 103 rules (e.g., daytime VFR flights only, away from populated areas and airports, under 254 lbs empty weight, etc.).On a single charge, the Jetson ONE has a flight duration of approximately 20 minutes.
Its maximum range is about 18 km (11 miles), based on official endurance tests cruising at around 60 km/h (37 mph).
(Range can vary with factors like pilot weight, wind, and flight profile; it’s not rated for sustained top-speed travel.)
