Joby Aviation

“So we were the first company to achieve stage Complete the stage one of the certification basis. The first complete stage two, first complete stage three, and now not only Joby, but the FAA is making record progress on stage four.”

“Yeah, it's, we fit into the airspace just like every other aircraft does, but it's phenomenal that this administration is, is leaning in and really driving forward on revitalizing the air traffic control and expanding the capacity of our air traffic control sy…”

“We started working with the DOD back in 2016 with DIU and that laid this incredible foundation for us with the DOD and it was you know, that, that expanded with the work with AFWERX.”

“We also do this interesting thing where we vary the spacing of the propeller blades, so instead of having a consistent harmonic, like, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, it spreads them out, and it spreads the noise out, and so that gives it that shhh sound instead of t…”

“So as we launched the service, we want this to be comparable in place to taking an Uber black. And then as we drive that manufacturing scale and get to Hundreds and then thousands and then tens of thousands of aircraft per year and really, you know, leveraging…”

“We had our path agreed to with the FA and that made it so that we needed to go back and relook at a number of pieces. And the good news is that all of that work is behind us.”

“Yeah, it's about a hundred times quieter than a helicopter and that's in hover.”

“It's 200 miles an hour.”

“When we flew the full scale in, in 2017 and we were able to show both to ourselves and everyone else that we were, that we could build an aircraft with That was incredibly quiet, that had redundancy, that had unprecedented performance.”

“And so I think you guys, like you said, you're first through, you're going to be the first to deploy.”

“The thing that's exciting about these kinds of aircraft is compared to ground-based transportation, whether that's rail or cars on the road, those are linear. And so if you want to you know, get more capacity, you need more lanes with this, you can go, you bui…”

“We would have gotten to the finish line a lot faster if that curve ball hadn't come along.”

“In fact, we, we've got two aircraft down at Edwards Air Force Base, and with those aircraft, we've been able to demonstrate the incredible robustness, and we've intentionally shut off lots of different systems on the aircraft, and demonstrated in flight that p…”

“We have the partnership where, where there are demand funnel and where You know, when you pull up the Uber app and you say you want to go to, you know, you're in New York, you want to go to JFK, that it'll seamlessly stitch a, an Uber trip to the VertiPort and…”

“Today we have capacity to build about one a month and we're ramping that as quick as possible.”

“We acquired a team called X-wing, which is one of the leaders in aircraft autonomy, and they're doing fantastic work on autonomous logistics and other autonomy applications for the duty and rebel aircraft, apparently.”

“I think we're going to be launching in Dubai with Joby in the coming year.”

“So at that point in time, we were 40 to 50 watt hours a kilogram. Now we're more than 300 watt hours a kilogram, and there's cells in the lab that are up to 500 watt hours a kilogram, and prototypes coming that are over a thousand watt hours.”

“We've got a record number of aircraft flying you know, now more than five aircraft. We have flying thousands of flights.”

“We've got doubling our footprint and manufacturing footprint in Marina, California, that plant plants coming online this month.”

“So we we've chosen as a company to be incredibly vertically integrated. So we want to make the best flight computers. We want to make the best air data computers. We want to make the best motors. We want to make the best battery packs. We want to make the best…”

“We acquired the Uber Elevate team from Uber, and that is the foundation of all the servers and the algorithms that run on the back end based on Uber's best in class architecture, and then also the app.”

“LJ is really our dream partner as we look to explore the opportunities in, in Saudi, and couldn't be more pleased with this initial tranche of a billion dollars for the commercialization in in Saudi.”

“And then and then last summer we demonstrated a 500 mile flight with the hydrogen electric aircraft.”

“We employ more than 2000 people.”

“So, so it's we'll be launching on routes of up to a hundred miles.”

“So we've shipped the first aircraft off to Dubai. We're going to have it there doing hot weather testing this summer.”

“There's now dozens of companies that are building aircraft that look almost identical to ours.”

“One fund that put a billion dollars in is my friend. Michael Thompson, who he, you know, I feel like I'm friends with both sides, but I'm kind of on the moderate right, I'm on the right, and Michael is on the right, and his partner Reid Hoffman's on the left, …”

“I'm obviously, I think I helped lead the first round, you know, when you guys raise institutional capital with a couple other friends.”

“We flew a hydrogen electric version of our VTOL aircraft more than 500 miles”

“One of the really cool things about our aircraft is because of fly bar, you can take your hands off the controls and the aircraft maintains maintains the attitude. You can get into the simulator and you can fly the aircraft flawlessly the first flight. Hundr…”

“This is a moment we've been working for more than a decade to get to the point where we have designs where we've agreed with the FAA on every detail of the design.”

“We've made capital investments to ramp from one to two aircraft a month, and now two to four aircraft a month.”

“More than 90% of the components on the aircraft are designed and manufactured in house.”

“One of the incredible things, like, as I talked about with Texas it's, it, Texas is one of the places that's super flexible. All you need is the permission of the landowner.”

“So we open sourced our charging standard. And so anybody can build a charger.”

“He's now able to build in an afternoon what would have previously taken him weeks or months.”

“There are some companies in this country that are doing incredible engineering and that are actually moving the ball forward. There are others who maybe are struggling and so maybe I'll leave it at that.”

“These are the folks that have a book of a dozen new aircraft designs that not just are like, 10% better than aircraft that we have today, but, you know, five and 10 times better.”

“It's you know, being able to take a trip that, that, you know, takes you half an hour on the ground and turn into a five or 10 minute trip, you know, and sometimes, sometimes you're replacing a two hour trip because you've got traffic.”

“More than 90% of the components on the aircraft. Are designed and manufactured in house.”

“He's now able to build in an afternoon What would have previously taken him weeks or months? he's like, I'm 10 X per 10 X as productive as I was just a few months ago.”
