Hovering a helicopter is difficult, especially at first. Anyone who has ever flown a helicopter - or even tried to - knows this. The challenge lies in maintaining precise coordination between the cyclic, collective, and pedals to keep the aircraft steady. With SkyOS™, our universal operating system for flight, we’ve automated controls to deliver inherent stability, allowing the aircraft to maintain balance and precision without constant corrections from a pilot. The result: safer, smoother flying—allowing pilots to better focus on their mission, not the complicated mechanics. Watch as our Skyryse One™ performs a fully automated hover.

Simpler, smarter and safer. We recently gave FLYING Magazine an inside look at Skyryse One™, the first production fly-by-wire helicopter piloted with a single control stick and two touchscreens. Skyryse One includes SkyOS™, our universal operating system for flight – which replaces conventional, complex mechanical flight controls and gives pilots greater control during standard flight operations, inclement weather, and emergencies. Skyryse One has officially entered For-Credit Testing with the FAA. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gSRgqG8T #Skyryse #SkyOS

Major milestone unlocked 🚁 The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has officially approved Skyryse to enter For-Credit Flight Testing — accelerating our journey toward certification of Skyryse One™, the world’s first production helicopter with a single control stick and SkyOS™, our universal operating system. Testing will start imminently and continue until STC, making this a significant milestone towards making flight radically simpler, safer, and more accessible — for personal, commercial, and even military use. 👉🏻 First fly-by-wire helicopter with no traditional cyclic or collective 👉🏻 Intuitive pilot interface: two touchscreen displays + one control stick 👉🏻 The first edition Skyryse One™ is sold out, but we’re taking second edition reservations and planning to ship by 2026. To join the reservation list, visit skyryse.com/reserve “Between signing a new agreement with the US Army this year, and now entering For-Credit Testing with the FAA, we’re gaining momentum toward scaling our aviation software across the industry. Starting for-credit flight testing with the FAA is not just a technical milestone — it’s a major step toward making aviation so simple and safe that anyone can fly any aircraft.” – Mark Groden, Founder & CEO Read more from Graham Warwick in Aviation Week Network: https://lnkd.in/eEWH_wny #Skyryse #FAA #SkyOS

The power of a swipe 🚁 Skyryse One™ has just been awarded the 2025 Technical Excellence Award by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (#AIAA) Los Angeles Section for successfully testing a fully automated hover and set-down at the swipe of a finger. Our team—David DeFusco, Andrew Telesca, Minnie Yoo, Alan Lee, Chris Ginzton, Chad Bickel, Liam Brogan & Taylor Morriss—had the honor of accepting this award on behalf of all of us. It’s a recognition of our collective ambition to make aviation significantly simpler and safer. Also in attendance: two CH-47 Chinook pilots recognized for their heroics during the LA fires. Their first question? “When can you install SkyOS on our aircraft?” That’s the power of this mission. Real need. Real urgency. Real potential.

✈️ This week, we proudly participated in the 2025 GAMA Hill Day, an annual event where members of the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) head to Capitol Hill to advocate for the future of our industry. Representing Skyryse, Lauren Bates met with key legislators including Rep. Adrian Smith (R-NE), Rep. Bill Huizenga (R-MI), the Office of Rep. Pete Aguilar (D-CA-33), and others, to highlight the importance of innovation in aviation and the transformative potential of simplified flight. At Skyryse, we’re committed to making flight safer and more accessible for everyone—and that mission starts with strong partnerships and forward-thinking policy. 📸 Swipe to see some moments from our time at the Capitol. #Skyryse #GAMA

SkyOS™ is designed to be universal — scalable across a variety of new and existing aircraft. ✈️ That’s why over the 14+ years Jonathan Siegmann was at Fidelity Investments as Portfolio Manager and Equity Research Analyst, we were the *only* private aviation investment he recommended that Fidelity make. Last year, we sat down with Jonathan to get his take on what makes our technology so unique from anything else in the market. #skyryse
