Hey guys I’m new here and bought shares today. My question is what made you guys invest in this company over Joby or Archer. I‘m happy to hear your opinions.

The future is almost here. Sharing this for anyone that missed it. Good stuff

For the investors and HOVR fans who cannot wait for what's to come, hear the sounds from a first fire of a PT6A engine. The Cavorite X7 will have this engine in a pusher prop (rear) configuration and well away from the cabin area and pilot.

Here's a taste of things to come.... https://www.facebook.com/reel/1045525501509624

Enjoy!

​Has anyone seen or heard anything about what the optimal cruising altitude will be for the X7?

With the majority of its flight being similar to a conventional aircraft, I wondered what the ideal cruising altitude would end up being. I imagine it will be somewhere in the 5,000–10,000 ft range, (most likely around 7,500 ft) but obviously will vary depending on the trip/mission/use.

I’m asking because while the primary focus of the X7 has been for defense and emergency services, the prospect of eventually expanding into regional transport and an air taxi, similar to other VTOL companies like JOBY and Archer, is enticing.

My biggest question is how comfortable of a ride will it be at those altitudes and speeds? Will the rich people that do air taxi's want to take an X7 over a helicopter or something like Joby/Archer?

One of the biggest selling points of the X7 is its speed. But increased speed while cruising at 5,000–10,000ft often comes with increased turbulence. Most conventional prop planes tend to cruise around 100-180 knots at 7,000–8,000 ft, which is an ideal sweet spot for maximizing speed, reducing turbulence, and increasing fuel efficiency. And if you've ever flown in a small prop plane, they aren't the most smooth rides.

The next question then is, if the X7 cruises within similar altitudes and speeds as an air taxi, does it really provide a significant advantage over helicopters and other pure eVTOLs in the air taxi market?

The law of diminishing returns comes into play if the X7 doesn't utilize its max speed (250 knots) over longer trips. If it's a short, cross city trip, then its biggest advantage over competing VTOL aircraft may not be significant in the air taxi market.

To be clear, I’m still all in on HOVR. Their primary focus is still military/emergency services. But this is just something I’ve been thinking about with the X7’s potential future in the air taxi market. Many people on this subreddit have talked about its future as an air taxi, so I’d be interested to see if anyone has heard Brandon talk about this or seen anything that referenced the optimal cruising altitudes, speeds, etc.

It'll be the first continent globally that will show what the X7 can do in disrupting and making regional air mobility a reality.

100 X7 when the deal is completed. Wow! That's more than enough to establish some routine routes and plenty of X7's for critical and urgent needs. The Australian population will embrace it fully.

I do hope Canada does something of similar scale. It would be well worth the trip north of the border for the X7 experience. Sign me up when it's available! There are so many scenic regions that are not accessible and a 3k-4k feet flight through them will be a transformative ride on the future of flight.

That brings up a totally new perspective. What is the X7 going to be like from the eyes of the pilot and passenger. No helicopter blades chopping. No rotary blades whirring. Amusement ride beginning and ending. Pure fun from start to end. When the press gets this experience, the coverage of X7 will be constant and off the charts. Every take off and landing will be a must see and hear. Everyone smiling and raving about the ride. It could very easily become a very addictive form of getting around the region. I am already hooked in my mind and can't wait for the real X7 day to happen.

Since there's been talk of warrants I updated the numbers to last Friday, enjoy. Also... do your own due diligence and don't take my word for it.

What’s everyone’s take on shares vs warrant for HOVR? Warrants are .45 at the moment. I own roughly 4000 shares. Contemplating adding warrants, however I am completely new to trading them. Have done the research, now looking for trader advice and insight.

This could be the future. Imagine having one of these in your driveway, and you can go anywhere 3x faster because of no traffic. This could very well be the replacement for cars.

Edit: a better title for what I’m envisioning is “Cavorite X7 may replace cars.”

Reddit seems to shill this company ALOT recently. I thought it's interesting too. All that military and emergency applications seem like a good direction.

Well I just saw a picture of the in-progress prototype and OMG that's ugliest aerial vehicle I have ever seen. There are 5 box fans encased in each wing and the wing looks like a ruler. Wings seem overly massive for its payload too. I just don't see how is the military going to deploy this very odd-looking flying machine. Helicopters are way more practical than a giant cicada in the air.

year ago we reached 4.2 with the company + progress nowhere near the milestones completed so far. Take into account the cash position and the partnerships in place.

Those investors who entered at 2.7 + 2.5 , these aren't hear to flip a double. Theyre here to see this to the end so are Cantor and other big investors.

I do believe the only reason were at these lows 1.5-2.5 is because of the macro environment m the war and such. I do believe we will go on a run very soon that we will see this have a new high at 6.

Do remember that the " big run " were looking for wont happen once this is certified. The speculation and the journey is what will make this run.

The more milestones they achieve , the lower the lows and you take it from there.

We can reach the end and this is a success and the all time high was even before certification.

To conclude , we will be taken to new highs in the next 2 years by traders who have no clue and don't care what the X7 does. Once this is 4-5 and the story this has doubled tripled this year. FOMO will kick is and These are the moments with good news and good partnerships to take this much higher.

That exposure could serve as a potential short term catalyst. Especially since it seems like we are really hugging the two dollar now. Anything could move the needle now.
