Honeywell and Volocopter Team To Test UAM Avionics
Honeywell intertial measurement based AHRS will fly on Volocopter eVTOL later this year
Volocopter's immediate goal is to fly Honeywell’s inertial measurement-based attitude reference system aboard one of its aircraft this year.

Honeywell and Volocopter have signed an agreement to jointly test and develop new navigation and automatic landing systems for the latter’s vertical takeoff and landing urban air mobility (UAM) aircraft. Honeywell said it will apply its existing aviation hardware and software products, including navigation technologies and fly-by-wire flight controls, to the test program, as well as the avionics manufacturer's autonomous sensing, inertial measurement units and attitude heading reference solutions, to solve the challenges of UAM flight.
