XTI Aerospace Announces Key Q1 2025 Product and Engineering Milestones
4 February 2025
XTI Aerospace, Inc. a pioneer in advanced Vertical Takeoff and Landing ("VTOL") and powered-lift aircraft solutions, today released its key product and engineering milestones for 2025 which will lead to a reopening of pre-sales of the TriFan 600 airplane later on this year.
The Company aims to redefine regional air travel through novel point-to-point solutions, and the TriFan 600 represents XTI's flagship airplane.
XTI expects to unveil its next subscale working model, code-named "Sparrow," which is a follow-on to XTI's last subscale model developed in late 2023. This new model is an unmanned 1:15 scale aircraft, and it will further validate transitional flight dynamics using rotating ducted fans.
"While many of the milestones we achieve are behind the scenes, the Sparrow model and its successors will provide tangible evidence of the TriFan 600's progress, as we move closer to its commercial debut," said Dave Ambrose, VP Engineering, XTI Aircraft.
For accomplishing foundational engineering work necessary to move our vision forward. As we demonstrate more progress in 2025, both pre-order customers and investors will see their confidence and commitment rewarded as the TriFan 600 moves closer to production and commercial readiness."
