Doroni looks for pre-orders ahead of prototype flight

The company is only accepting 36 pre-order reservations in the first year of production following product launch in Q4 2024, scaling slowly in order to ensure the highest level of quality and safety possible.

Doroni Aerospace has launched pre-orders for its H1 personal eVTOL. The company is only accepting 36 pre-order reservations in the first year of production following product launch in Q4 2024, scaling slowly in order to ensure the highest level of quality and safety possible. Doroni test pilot Charles Boyd will serve as the company's representative and guide customers through the entire process, from securing a reservation after submitting an application to their very first flight.

Doroni recently launched its second crowdfunding raise on the equity crowdfunding platform StartEngine.com and to date has raised $331K+ from over 235 investors. The company previously closed their first Reg CF raise on StartEngine in April after officially raising $1,069,850. Doroni also recently launched their completely rebuilt website, showcasing the Doroni H1's specs, the company's mission, and where customers will soon be able to pre-order their own H1 eVTOL.

Doroni Aerospace recently participated in EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2022, where the company revealed the Doroni H1's completed cockpit as well as an immersive Virtual Reality VR Flight Experience.

For the first time the general public was able to step inside of the fully complete H1 Cockpit, strapping in to take command of the H1's control sticks, and experience the next-level sophistication of the H1's Dashboard Flight and Navigation System. Using VR headsets, EAA AirVenture participants were able to sit inside the completed H1 cockpit and simulate the experience of takeoff, flight, and landing the Doroni H1 personal eVTOL.

Doroni believes that when paired together in this way, the H1 cockpit interior and VR Flight Experience provide the closest approximation to what it will be like to fly the completed Doroni H1 eVTOL when it's projected to launch in Q4 2024.

Doroni procured and moved into a new research and development facility at the beginning of 2022, where it began production of the H1 eVTOL prototype. The company has finalized the H1's airframe design and is currently producing two fully-functional cockpits with software, avionics, and computer systems that are ready for flight integration: one for the purpose of simulations and one for flight tests.

Doroni has NDA agreements in place with major Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) like Honeywell Aerospace, Garmin, and Amphenol to incorporate components into the H1. In addition, Doroni is supported by Space Florida, a state government agency, who is providing resources to bring the company's operations to scale (i.e. allocating land, building production facility and tooling, leasing, etc.).

To the best of Doroni's knowledge, the company has procured nearly all of the technology, components (batteries, motors, etc.), and partnerships necessary to complete a flying prototype and begin flight tests before the end of 2022.
