The vehicles are quite impressive from an engineering perspective, but they are basically reinventions of the helicopter but then with much lower range.
And just like helicopters the costs are high and there are so many operational limits due to safety and noise that there is no sustainable business model.

Also: Just because it is electric does not mean it is sustainable.
