We are a team of young engineers from TU Delft developing an all-electric personal VTOL aircraft. Join us our exciting journey to the @goflyprize and beyond...
Working through day and night our #engineering#team has demonstrated the S1's capability to #fly untethered outdoors. It is a massive step in our #flight#test campaign and shows just how far we have come from when the S1 was just a #dream on paper.

Na twee jaar valt het doek voor @teamsilverwing. Het dreamteam van de @tudelft ontwierp en bouwde een elektrisch eenpersoonsvliegtuigje.

February was a historic month for Silverwing. We hope you enjoy watching this throwback video as much as we enjoyed our time in the US! #flysilverwing#throwbacktuesday
Last week we ended our California trip with a special flight demonstration for friends and family at the Patriots Jet Team hangar. We couldn’t have imagined a better way to end the USA adventure of Silverwing!

Thanks to everyone who supported us on our journey to the @GoFlyPrize Fly-off. The million dollar prize is still up for grabs! Congrats to @teTra_aviation on winning the @prattandwhitney Disruptor Award.
Check out this exciting project of @teamsilverwing, which we support with our Bolero. The young engineers of TU Delft are developing a fully electric, vertical take-off aircraft for personal use. Sounds crazy, right?

See the #DeltaElektronika Power Supplies that are powering @teamsilverwing competing at the @GoFlyPrize to build the world's first personal flying device!

✅ First Free Flight!
We are not only certified by the #FAA to fly outdoors but we have also achieved our first #free#flight. In this clip, you can join our team as we #celebrate the occasion

The S1 is now certified for outdoor flight! After being thoroughly inspected by the #FAA the S1 received its Special Flight Authorization. We are all incredibly proud of this #achievement and we will be soon #flying our #aircraft outdoors!
The S1 is going to #fly with the batteries onboard! To pass the @GoFlyPrize Flight Preparedness Review (FPR) we must fly using only our #custom#battery and no external cables. Our team is hard at work ensuring that we pass the FPR and move onto the next step: #outdoor flight.
At Silverwing safety is our number one priority and effective communication is the key! Thanks to the industry-leading SoundComm B40 Headset, provided to us by @BoseAviation , we’re able to communicate seamlessly with each other during our tests and the competition.
