Sikorsky Firefly Electric Helicopter

Sikorsky Aircraft Innovations project had their Firefly electric helicopter demonstration at last year’s EAA Convention. It is based on an existing design, and just had the power system replaced with a motor and batteries. The plane only has about a 15 minute endurance since it’s only a test project to learn about the system efficiency, reduced complexity, reduced maintenance, noise and vibration.
