eVTOL Insights Podcast: Diving into battery development with Vertical Aerospace’s Limhi Somerville

In this week’s pod­cast episode, we were delight­ed to wel­come Limhi Somerville, who is Head of Bat­tery at Ver­ti­cal Aero­space.

As part of a deep dive into bat­ter­ies for eVTOL air­craft, Limhi talks to us about the progress of the com­pa­ny’s VA-X4 and what he feels are the design chal­lenges when it comes to design­ing an elec­tric propul­sion sys­tem.

He also goes into detail about his role with Euro­CAE and what the rest of the year and 2022 has in store for the team as it con­tin­ues to work towards cer­ti­fi­ca­tion of the VA-X4 in the next cou­ple of years.
