- Our flagship aircraft Alta enables travelers to skip the big-airport hassle https://youtu.be/fyI4XMsF2rM by using city helipads and local airports to connect cities less than 1,000 miles apart (approx 40% of flights).
- We’re deploying aircraft with launch partners (Fiji Airways https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/futureflight/2024-09-20/fiji-airways-plans-connect-pacific-islands-laila-vtol, Honeywell https://aerospace.honeywell.com/us/en/about-us/press-release/2024/07/honeywell-odys-aviation-to-collaborate-on-uncrewed-aircraft-operations-in-the-middle-east-and-pacific, Aramex https://evtolinsights.com/2024/01/odys-aviation-aramex-announce-collaboration-to-develop-cargo-operations-in-uae-and-oman/, US Navy) beginning
Additional details
- ABOUT ODYS Our mission at Odys is simple - we build safe, sustainable aircraft to cut travel time in half on the world's busiest corridors.
- And on average cut CO2 by 76% on tens of billions of flight miles globally.
- Previously, our team developed custom drones, brought multiple automotive platforms into production, and electrified transportation vehicles that magnetically levitate, that roll, that fly.
- Together, we’ve been learning, developing, building, testing, and preparing for this challenge our entire lives.
- - The intern will support the development team by assembling UAV platforms, integrating sensors and communication devices, and assisting with system-level bench and flight testing.
- Responsibilities - Assist in assembling and maintaining UAV platforms used for research and development - Support integration of sensors, cameras, radios, and communication modules - Perform wiring, soldering, and hardware setup for onboard electronics - Help verify hardware functionality (power, communication, sensor outputs) - Assist with bench testing and flight testing preparation - Support integration of hardware with onboard compute systems - Help document wiring diagrams, system configurations, and
- Experience integrating sensors or cameras What You'll Gain - Hands-on
