The 'SAI' [eVTOL](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mostavio-mx1) concept has been designed by Fenton Robathon as a regional flight vehicle that would offer [single passengers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leo-solo) with an effective way to transport between locations on their own terms. Featuring a [quadcopter design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-walkers), the vehicle has a counterbalanced seat that will shift according to the flight conditions to keep the passenger in the optimal positioning. The design also accommodates the tight space constraints of urban areas by allowing for the aforementioned vertical takeoff as well as hovering to seamlessly navigate through packed metropolitan regions.

The 'SAI' eVTOL concept has a wingspan of 4.8 meters, a length of two meters and a height of 1.7 meters, which enables it to fit into a conventional parking spot to allow for seamless integration into existing infrastructure.
