We are entering a new era of humanity, marked by technological innovations that previously existed only in science fiction. Among these revolutions, flying cars emerge as a symbol of a future already beginning to materialize.
For decades, the dream of gravity-defying vehicles has occupied the popular imagination, representing the promise of faster, more efficient mobility that is less dependent on traditional ground-based infrastructure. As advances in engineering, artificial intelligence, and renewable energy converge, the vision of a world where flying cars become an everyday reality is ever closer.
These innovations will transform the way we move and redefine our relationship with space, time, and the planet’s resources, signaling the beginning of a new era for humanity. On August 20, 21, and 22, Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, hosted one of the most significant events in the Americas: the Brazilian and Mercosur Agricultural Aviation Congress. The theme was "Technology that generates Sustainability," highlighting the importance of innovation for the future of agribusiness. Among the many exhibitors at the event, the Dakila Ecosystem presented the eVTOL, a flying vehicle, and the agricultural drone in partnership with VoeMtx and Vertical Connect.
Dakila Pesquisas invests in technologies like this to primarily benefit and add to the company's research, such as the one currently underway regarding RATANABÁ and Caminhos do Peabiru.
The flying vehicle will help the team in the following areas: It can access areas that a helicopter would not be able to reach due to its size; it is battery-powered, which makes recharging easier, unlike a helicopter that requires specific fuel that is difficult to find and generates higher costs; and it provides more efficient logistics due to its lightness and easy maintenance. However, in terms of flight autonomy and load capacity, flying vehicles still perform worse than helicopters.
In an interview with the Pé na Areia Podcast, broadcast live from the aviation event, the presenter asks the CEO of the Dakila Ecosystem what his first impressions were when he saw the flying car live and in full color in front of him. Urandir Fernandes de Oliveria responds - "24 years in this dream that became a reality, so seeing this 'baby' flying is phenomenal. It's a feeling of duty fulfilled; the feeling is spectacular, and the achievement especially concerns the associates, those who follow, who believed, and who are with us today. So this is great; it's a huge celebration."
Carlos Mello - One of the directors of Vertical Connect, also present at the interview, presents to the public the technical data regarding the eVTOL named Genesis X1 - "The aircraft has four seats, with a flight autonomy of 30 to 40 minutes (which for urban flights is fantastic, remembering that over time the battery will evolve), has a management system that controls not only the displacement but also the engines, will have a speed of 100/120 at most 150km/h, its structure is 100% carbon fiber (from its cells, its arms that support the engines to the landing gear), the most important thing is that we are talking about a practically 100% Brazilian aircraft and in terms of safety the project already has a ballistic parachute."

At the event, Dakila Pesquisas associates presented their experiences flying in the GoldAir Taxi Aero helicopter in partnership with VoeMtx, which will soon accept payment through BDM Digital Crypto assets.
Interesting fact: In the 2000s, the Portal Project, now known as Dakila Pesquisas, developed a prototype of an aero disc powered 99% by helium gas. However, the project was put on standby due to the lack of technological resources at the time.
