Moya Aero has achieved its first flight with the autonomous eVTOL aircraft it is developing mainly for logistics and agricultural applications. On Monday, the Brazilian start-up reported that a technology demonstrator had flown for the first time on November 15, marking the start of a flight test campaign it hopes will lead to type certification and service entry in 2026.
The first flight with the 70-percent-scale aircraft was made from the Fazenda Maristela airfield close to São José dos Campos in São Paulo state and lasted five minutes. The Moya team has made 14 more flights since then and expects to start expanding the flight envelope during the summer season in the Southern Hemisphere. The company has already met with the Brazilian aviation regulator ANAC to agree on a process for certification.
