FlyNow Arabia Ltd. is set to demonstrate its eCopter at the Saudi Drone Exhibition 2025 in Riyadh, September 1-3, Booth B06, following a series of successful untethered flight tests of the modular, fully electric eVTOL.
The eCopter is designed for personal and cargo transportation, as well as firefighting and medevac missions.
FlyNow’s full-scale (1:1) eCopter prototype will be on display at the Saudi Drone Exhibition 2025, offering attendees a first-hand look at the vehicle’s modular and functional design. Built from the same lightweight carbon fiber materials used in the final aircraft, the mock-up reflects FlyNow’s focus on safety, simplicity, and cost-efficiency.
Developed for short-range urban missions, the eCopter features a compact cabin that can be configured for either cargo or passenger use. Attendees will be able to sit inside the prototype and explore the interior layout, optimized for one passenger.
In 2024, FlyNow Aviation established FlyNow Arabia Ltd. in Riyadh as part of its long-term strategy to serve the Middle Eastern market. The company will set up a production facility in the Kingdom, with future Saudi-made eCopters serving both domestic and international markets.
Later this year, FlyNow will conduct sandbox flights in Saudi Arabia as part of a joint pilot project with local and international participants aimed at developing and demonstrating the safe integration of eVTOL operations in low-altitude airspace. These steps align with the Kingdom’s vision for sustainable, high-tech mobility solutions.
The FlyNow booth will also feature an interactive virtual reality simulation, developed in collaboration with FalconViz, a Saudi-based leader in UAV-powered asset digitization and 3D mapping. Using a VR headset, attendees can discover what it feels like to fly in the eCopter while gaining a realistic impression of the cabin, flight behavior, and overall passenger experience.
Yvonne Winter, CEO of FlyNow Arabia Ltd. and President of Sky Alliance for Automated Air Mobility (SALAAM.earth), will participate in a panel discussion at the exhibition, sharing insights on the future of urban air mobility and the steps needed to integrate eVTOL technology, such as the FlyNow eCopter, into the region’s transportation ecosystem. The session, titled How to Unlock the Potential of the Low Altitude Economy for the Kingdom, will take place on September 2, 2025, on the Main Stage, moderated by Dr. James Morgan.
