Our design patents have been filed, and we can now show the final design for the Switchblade flying sports car. This first image is how the Switchblade will look while driving. We have already started building the first of three production test vehicles that will be tested intensively while we set up for serial production. These first vehicles will be built at our R&D facility using fixtures and jigs that we will transfer to our initial production facility in the near future. The nose radiator inlet takes advantage of the high-pressure air on the nose, as most automobiles do. Our radiator outlet is at the base of the windshield and takes advantage of the aerodynamics of that area to produce a slight net thrust from the radiator system. This, along with the aerodynamic advantages of the final body shape, have reduced drag by over 2% from the already sleek design we validated in the wind tunnel in May of 2024. We will reveal more images over the coming days and weeks to further show the benefits and design statement achieved for production. As the Switchblade is a high-performance vehicle in both driving and flying modes, it is intended to look the part. We have exceeded our expectations on the ground with 125+ mph speeds. The wind tunnel verified that we can now achieve our design cruise speed in the air of 160 mph. Celebrate the future!

Samson Sky has taken the next big step towards electrification of flying cars by completing design work with MVAero for a new ducted fan, or electric jet, depending on how you like to call it. Our design goals were to produce 150 pounds of thrust at 160 mph at 8,000' elevation on less than 70 kW. We beat our goal! Next step is to build and test this electric jet in the real world, which we will do first on our ground prototype, before we mount this on a flying prototype for flight testing.
