Haricopter X1-B passenger hybrid-electric VTOL concept design aircraft
The Haricopter X1-B is a one passenger hybrid-electric VTOL aircraft for advance air mobility which utilizes both comfort and functionality in the design. The aircraft has a full transparent cockpit allowing spectacular views for the passenger during flight and due to its compact design, the aircraft can easily land and takeoff from a standard parking space and can be stored in a typical-sized garage. There is also a small amount of space behind the seat for a small piece of luggage or other type of cargo, such as groceries or a gym bag.

The concept design VTOL aircraft has the added advantage having a long range due to its hybrid-electric power source. The simplicity of design keeps the purchase cost down, maintenance costs down and single points of failure to a minimum. During flight, the passenger can control what route the aircraft flies but the passenger must follow pre-approved flight routes assigned by the government. If any deviation occurs from an approved flight path, ground stations will reroute the aircraft to stay on an approved flight path.
