Much like rLoop’s Hyperloop pod was born from SpaceX’s competition, rFlight was created through Boeing’s GoFly competition, a challenge to design the world’s best personal flying device.
more infoAfter two years of development, the full scale rWing prototype was submitted and flight tested for FAA approval at NASA Ames, Moffett Airfield, California.

The rFlight3 project, initiated by rLoop for the HeroX GoFly competition, aims to develop a compact, single-person aircraft that is easy to fly, requiring no pilot’s license or extensive training. The goal is to create an innovative personal flight experience while overcoming regulatory and commercial challenges. Using expert evaluations, rLoop seeks to refine its preliminary design into a viable ultralight aircraft.
The rFlight3 project is focused on developing a lightweight, efficient, and practical vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) ultralight aircraft. The primary challenges include weight limitations, power efficiency, and ensuring safety while maintaining usability for the general public.
