The LEO Solo is Powered by Electric Ducted Mini Fans
Michael Hemsworth — November 28, 2025 — Eco
The LEO Solo has been announced by LEO Flight as a single-seater electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicle that's engineered to offer an operator the ability to seamlessly take to the skies at their leisure. The vehicle utilizes a series of electric ducted mini fans to create lift and help operators achieve a top speed of 60mph at a height of 15-feet. The vehicle is rated to support 10 to 15-minutes of flight time thanks to the solid-state battery within that will accommodate at-home charging.
The LEO Solo operates in a relatively quiet manner at 80-decibels when taking flight and thus won't cause too much disturbance during operation. The vehicle is being offered for preorder now.
