Skyla V30
Six-seat, 2.5-tonne-class all-electric tiltrotor eVTOL. Blue Vector's August 31, 2026 note uses those words for a passenger aircraft. CnEVPost describes it as designed for intercity travel. The November 2 notes call it a pure-electric tiltrotor eVTOL

- Price / deposit
- Not stated. Blue Vector's September 26, 2026 note says 60 pre-sales orders were signed during the Global Digital Trade Expo in Hangzhou, including 30 with Moon Aero of Singapore, and that cumulative pre-sales orders had exceeded 100 since a July 2026 debut. Pre-sales orders are not firm orders.
- Certification, as written on the tracker
- No type certificate is stated. The November 2 release says the battery technology still has to go through systems integration, engineering validation and airworthiness review. The September 26 note says the company will continue engineering validation and airworthiness certification work. Those are plans. The August 31 note says the program set a civil-aviation-level safety target. A target is not a type certificate.
- Delivery / launch
- Not stated. Full-scale technology demonstrator A/C01 rolled out on the morning of August 31, 2026 in Harbin. Blue Vector says the next work is systems integration, ground testing and tilt-transition flight tests. No flight of A/C01 is stated. A December 2025 tilt-transition flight is described only for a subscale demonstrator.

Term sheet Conditional |
Not disclosed. Signed cooperation agreements, not an aircraft order. |
Signed cooperation agreements, not a term sheet for an aircraft purchase and not a firm order. CATL said on November 2, 2026 that it and Blue Vector signed a strategic cooperation agreement and a product cooperation agreement at the same time, that CATL will custom-develop aviation power batteries for the SKYLA V30, and that Blue Vector selected CATL as its exclusive battery partner. Blue Vector's note the same day says the two agreements were formally signed and that CATL will custom-develop aviation power battery products for the Skyla V30. It does not use the word exclusive. Neither page states a deal value, a battery specification or a supply timeline. CnEVPost reports that the statement did not disclose those. This row is not an aircraft order. Pre-sales orders Blue Vector described in September are not this agreement and are not firm orders. |
