DARKLAB PERSONAL ULTRALIGHT EVTOL
MEET THE R-ONE

The First Aircraft in the Darklab Personal Fleet

The R-one is our flagship single-seat personal eVTOL — an open-frame, ultralight aircraft built to make vertical electric flight accessible, safe, and genuinely exhilarating.

Eight independent electric motors drive eight rotors arranged around a roll-bar safety cell. Lose one motor and the R-one keeps flying. Lose two and it still gets you down safely.

The flight computer handles altitude, stability and heading. You handle where you want to go.

BUILT FOR SAFETY

Safety is our engineering priority, not an afterthought.

01

Eight-Motor Redundant Propulsion

Eight fully independent electric motors mean the R-one continues flying safely after the loss of any single motor.

02

Roll-Bar Spaceframe Safety Cell

An aluminium and carbon fibre roll-bar cockpit surrounds and protects the pilot across the full flight envelope.

03

Altitude Hold & Hands-Free Hover

The flight computer maintains position and altitude automatically, so you can focus entirely on where you want to go.

04

Automated Emergency Landing

One-button auto land brings the R-one down safely to the nearest suitable surface, hands-off.

05

Fully Electric - Zero Tailpipe Emissions

Battery-electric propulsion eliminates fuel burn at the point of operation and significantly reduces acoustic footprint.

06

Open-Frame Design for Full Visibility

The open spaceframe gives the pilot unobstructed situational awareness in every direction during flight.
