Spintech Holdings, Inc., of Xenia, has been awarded dual Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) contracts to help advance electric flying cars.
Spintech will work with partners the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI) and Aurora Flight Sciences, a Boeing company that focuses on electric vertical take-off and landing (or “eVTOLâ€) vehicles — often called “flying cars.â€
The first contract will focus on propeller blades, while a second contract will focus on composite materials.
The propeller blades project will “explore novel methods of manufacture and materials leading to improved manufacturing, reduced cost, and increased structural efficiency of propeller blades†for electric flying cars, Spintech said in a new announcement.
