Come film a flying machine.
A single-seat electric aircraft that lifts straight up off the ground, no runway, and needs no pilot license to fly. Built in San Francisco.
Where this comes from
The US category for aircraft you can fly without a pilot license.
What you can film, and when
The aircraft at full size, finished and painted, in the workshop where it is being built. The founder and the engineers, on camera.
The first flight. It flies unmanned, remotely piloted by the team with cameras fitted to the aircraft, so you can film the flight itself, the crew at the controls, and the minutes either side of it. You are welcome to be there.

What we would appreciate

- A link to utopialabs.comIn the description or a pinned comment, so people who want a closer look can find it.
- A word that pre-orders are openThey are, and most people watching will assume something like this is years away from being buyable.
