Very nice, great to see a new model flying around. Sounds great too.

I wonder if there's any scope for a 4-seat version with a higher speed.

You have a digital display, which enables you to do a MFD, FLI, whatever, and than you replicate standard instruments... which take space for the navigation or other things you want to display. And than you put in additional standard instruments?!?! As if it's an IFR helicopter?
Engine starter on the roof will make all the restarts so nice... taking away a fighting chance.

Agree, completely silly, but at least certifiable in contrast to the REALLY silly PFD of HILL helicopter 😂

That would be nice, it would then look like a Gazelle instead of a foreshortened one.

Dyson doing fenestrons as a side-hustle?
