LAND ROTOR publishes target specifications for the S150 and S250 personal eVTOLs
LAND ROTOR has published specifications for its single-seat S150 and two-seat S250. It labels a 50 mph maximum speed, a 25–35 mph cruise and 20 minutes of endurance as targets, and targets first deliveries as early as 2028. The $1,000 reservation deposit is fully refundable, not a firm order.
Urban Air Mobility News reported on October 26, 2026 that LAND ROTOR had published specifications for a single-seat S150 and a two-seat S250, with first deliveries planned for 2028, a targeted maximum speed of 50 mph, a cruising speed of around 30 mph, endurance of 20 minutes, and deposits of $1,000. The company pages and the specification PDF, opened the same day, are more specific, and they label the performance numbers as targets and design estimates.
LAND ROTOR's specification PDF lists seating as 1 for the S150 and 2 for the S250. It lists total occupant payload capacity as 150 lb and 250 lb. Rows it marks as targets, for both aircraft, are a maximum speed of 50 mph, a cruising speed of 25–35 mph, endurance of 20 minutes, and operating altitude from the surface to 1,000 ft above ground level. Urban Air Mobility News's "around 30 mph" cruise is a summary of that 25–35 mph target band. The PDF lists propulsion as all-electric and flight controls as electronic stability-assisted. It lists empty weight including batteries as 373 lb for the S150 and 571 lb for the S250, and takeoff weight with the target payload as 523 lb and 821 lb. A footnote says the specifications are based on established electric VTOL technology and LAND ROTOR design estimates, and that actual performance may vary with loading, atmosphere and battery energy. The speeds, endurance and altitude are targets. The weights are design estimates in that same note. None of them is a measured flight result.
What the company says about using and buying one
The company homepage says the S150 and S250 use a retractable propulsion layout intended to simplify trailering and garage storage, and that with the arms retracted they are engineered to fit a standard 16-foot trailer and most residential garages. It also describes reinforced structure, canopies, roll structure and harnesses. Those are design descriptions. The page does not say an aircraft has been trailered or flown.
The homepage and the reservation page say reservations are open for a fully refundable $1,000 deposit per aircraft, and that initial customer deliveries are targeted to begin as early as 2028. The reservation page calls the aircraft the LAND ROTOR Sportster. A fully refundable deposit is not a firm order. Neither page states a purchase price or how many reservations exist. Neither page dates the opening of reservations. The address on both pages is Land Rotor Corporation, 5728 Major Boulevard, Suite 702, Orlando, Florida 32819. The about page names Johnnie Veilleux as chairman and chief executive and describes the S150 as in development. It does not describe a flight of the S150 or the S250, and it does not state a certification basis.
What is not established
No flight of either aircraft is reported on the pages opened. No purchase price is stated. The 2028 deliveries are a target ("as early as 2028"), which is also how Urban Air Mobility News's "planned for 2028" should be read. The $1,000 deposit is fully refundable. The company does not say how many people have reserved. No certificate is described, and no certification basis is stated. Published target specifications are not a type certificate.
