Design and development of a pilotless On-Demand Air Mobility concept are carried out. TLARs of the groundbreaking, green aircraft concept include a payload of 400 kg (4 PAX), a design range of 500 km and a cruise speed of 300 km/h. The aircraft’s preliminary design and a discussion of additional analyses of structural layout, aerodynamic performance and aeroelastic behavior are presented.
