At the 2025 UPSummit, 20,000 people gathered to witness an incredible sight: four of Jetson’s sleek ONE personal flyers humming to life on the tarmac. Team members from the Polish company went all out with their Air Games demonstration, putting on a real show stopper: four aircraft lifted off in tight formation and slashed through the air like a squadron from an 80s sci-fi film. Tomasz Patan, the company’s founder, flew in the show, delivering a smooth performance with those eight propellers churning through the Arkansas air.
The demo truly got started with that formation flight, the four flyers hovering there, before breaking off into the pylon race, with each pilot needing to traverse a short circuit marked out by the enormous orange markers they created last year. One of the pilots zoomed in to the front, achieving a pretty astounding 63 miles per hour, with the carbon-fiber frame flexing a little as you’d expect.

Jetson has developed a fondness for pylons, which are tall enough to make pilots reconsider their actions in the cockpit. Patan came up with the notion of putting some bite into the flying by transforming broad skies into a playground for rapid cuts and recoveries. They held their first official race back in May, a head-to-head in which CEO Stéphan D’haene came out on top after a brief detour. This diversion was a true test of the ONE’s range, as the crew loaned one of its flyers to a mountain rescue in Poland.
All of this set the stage for Bentonville, where the Air Games truly began to take hold as a sport – not just a one-time event, but regular races, formations, and demonstrations centered on these personal machines that anyone with a little training and a joystick could control. Put simply, the ONE’s design is minimalistic: an open-frame cockpit and four arms extending in an X configuration, each tipped with two props for quick lift. The battery life is about 20 minutes, and the eVTOL is lightweight enough to fold up and store in a trailer when you’re finished.
Right now they have about 550 orders on the books, with production for 2026 and 27 filled up pretty fast. If you want to get your hands on one for 2028 you can book a spot now – that gets you in at the current price of $128,000, but come next November 3rd that’s going to jump up to $148,000. And hey, that deposit gets you entry to a world where flying is no longer just about watching the pros do their thing, but about getting in there and showing off your skills. In fact, spots for 2028 are actually open right now to anyone willing to part with $8,000 to lock in that price.
