Chapter 346: One Draws a Pie and the Other Burns

Driving Yunhe is easier than driving an automatic car?

Luo Xin's remarks immediately excited the netizens in the live broadcast room.

[Are you still recruiting? ]

[Players of Battle of Yunxiao said that basic knowledge of driving and flight safety can be learned in the game. If you play this game well, won't you be able to get a Yunhe driver's license in a month? ]

[Fuck, I feel that Mr. Kang is playing a big game! ]

[……]

Just when netizens were fiercely discussing whether private jets would be able to enter the lives of ordinary people in the future, Luo Xin also began to demonstrate the flight operation of Yunhe more intuitively through actual flight.

The whole flight process is indeed quite simple.

It can even be said to be brainless.

The route is planned by the main control console. The aircraft basically climbs vertically, then turns to fixed-wing form and moves forward at the same time. When it is close to the destination, it turns back to helicopter state and then lands vertically...

Luo Xin only performed less than ten operations throughout the whole process, and the rest was left to automatic driving.

The difficulty of the airplane's autopilot system is indeed much simpler than that of a car. After all, the air is not as complex and changeable as the road. As long as the route planned by the control console does not conflict with other aircraft, you can basically fly with your eyes closed.

The biggest enemy of the airplane is the complex airflow and weather. At this time, the test is actually the stability and controllability of the airplane.

However, with Yunhe's powerful performance parameters, as long as it does not encounter particularly extreme situations, it can operate very accurately according to the navigation route.

"The appearance of Yunhe reminds me of the scene more than 30 years ago."

After experiencing Yunhe, Susan couldn't help but sigh,

"At that time, private cars were an unattainable luxury for ordinary people. The most common buses I took at that time were urban and rural buses, and the dragon-horse carriages that carried goods."

"At that time, car drivers were also a very popular and impressive profession."

"Nowadays, cars have unknowingly entered thousands of households, and almost everyone has a car driver's license. With the development of technology and the times, perhaps one day in the future, aircraft like Yunhe will also be able to enter thousands of households and become a good helper in our lives and work..."

After listening to this summary speech, netizens immediately posted a barrage:

[Who has the best ability to draw cakes? Let's look for the central bank! 】

[In the past, the United States was called the "country on wheels". I feel that if there is a "country in the sky" in the future, it will be us~]

[Central Bank: I am responsible for drawing the pie, President Kang: I am responsible for making the pie~]

[……]

In the first day of trial operation, each Yunhe completed at least 2,000 kilometers of flight, and the total trial operation mileage reached 26,000 kilometers.

And the performance was quite outstanding and stable throughout the whole process.

So Dasong Air Transport officially opened the online ticketing system that night as planned.

The result can be imagined.

The 1,600 tickets sold to the public were snapped up in less than three minutes!

Many people actually had no travel plans at all, and completely regarded it as a cheap air tourism experience ticket...

At the same time, Dasong Air Transport also reserved some tickets for local leaders to experience. When the leader of the Transportation Department of Xizang Province personally took a Yunhe, he immediately called the province happily like a child.

"We must do everything we can to make the development focus of Dasong Air Transport be placed on our Zang District. I suggest that the preferential policies of Changdu City be expanded to the whole province!"

At the same time, Bai Yingfeng, who had just come down from Yunhe, also took this opportunity to tell the villagers who gathered nearby to watch the excitement the great news that had been suppressed for a long time:

Dasong Air Transport Company will open a charter flight line from the orchard to Rongcheng for Chaou County from August to November, greatly reducing the loss and cost of kiwifruit in excessive logistics.

At the same time, the leaders of the county will also actively contact the fruit merchants in Rongcheng to come to Chaou to purchase the fruit.

Even if Rongcheng can't eat so much, transiting through Rongcheng can greatly reduce the logistics cost and the loss rate of fruit.

This news immediately made the fruit farmers on the scene very happy.

In the past, their fruits were not competitive at all in the surrounding provinces, and could only be transported to the Greater Bay Area or even Hong Kong. By lengthening the transportation route and sharing the logistics costs of Zang, they could make a little money by taking advantage of the high prices in economically developed areas...

But now, these are not a problem!

They no longer have to worry about not being able to sell the fruit or get a good price!

…

At the same time, people on the other side of the ocean are paying no less attention to this matter than the Chinese.

For the new track of eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft), aviation countries around the world have been quite active, and there are more than 300 companies engaged in research and development in this field.

In fact, long before Yunhe appeared, China's Ehang Intelligent had already independently developed the air taxi "Ehang EH216-S".

This aircraft looks like an enlarged version of a multi-rotor drone, using 16 motors and 16 pairs of blades as the main power.

At present, it has completed airworthiness certification and is conducting commercial trials around the world. The price is not expensive, only 2.39 million.

But the performance...

It's a bit miserable, with a maximum flight speed of 130km/h, a maximum take-off weight of 620KG, a maximum payload of 220KG, and a maximum range of 30KM.

It means that it can only seat two people at most and can only fly 30 kilometers, which is quite limited.

After the EH216-S completed the airworthiness certification, the S4 eVTOL aircraft of Joby Aviation of the United States followed closely and completed the airworthiness license.

Although the first eVTOL aircraft to obtain airworthiness certification, model qualification, and production license was taken away by China, the S4 eVTOL has completely crushed the EH216-S with its powerful performance...

Because the configuration used by the S4 eVTOL is very different from that of the EH216-S, it is a tilt-rotor aircraft like the Yunhe.

This type of aircraft has a higher energy utilization rate because part of its lift is generated by the wings, and its performance in all aspects is much stronger than that of a simple multi-axis aircraft.

The S4 eVTOL can carry one pilot and four passengers, with a range of 160km, a maximum take-off weight of 2.4 tons, and a maximum speed of 322km/h.

With a longer range and a larger number of passengers, joby Aviation's eVTOL has a wider range of application scenarios.

It made old M very proud at the beginning.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. The sudden appearance of Silver Crane was like an alien attack, which directly blew up these "eVTOL toys".

Now that Yunhe has entered formal commercial operation, the citizens of M, who were originally full of pride, feel even more bitter...

[Too extravagant, the Chinese actually use Osprey to transport goods? ]

[S4 eVTOL feels like a joke in front of Yunhe...]

[The Osprey, which our military can neither afford nor even use if we buy it, has become a civilian transportation tool in backward economic areas in Rabbit? ]

[My God, a 211-kilometer range, the ticket price is only 30 US dollars? How much have they lowered the cost of this thing? ]

[This is definitely an epoch-making means of transportation! ]

[Haha, this is the consequence of playing financial games every day and handing over the manufacturing industry! ]

[You don't understand this, right? The Kashiwa Palace can use the wealth gained from the financial game to buy Rabbit's planes... Oh no, they took the initiative to blacklist Longteng Group, so just ignore what I said. 】

[The key is that the financial game is now played like a piece of shit, and the scientific research competitiveness is also lagging behind, so the conclusion is: a group of idiots live in the Kashiwa Palace! 】

[I would like to ask the military a question, if you use the Osprey purchased for $74 million for commercial operations, how much will the ticket cost to avoid losing money? 】

"Shit!"

"Fuck!"

Seeing these remarks, the politicians in the Kashiwa Palace were almost furious...
