Performance figures are attributed manufacturer targets or claims unless explicitly identified as demonstrated. Payload, weather, reserves, and aircraft configuration affect real-world performance. Figures may use different test assumptions.

Where it stands

Ultralight experience operations

HEXA surrounds a single-seat cabin with eighteen electric propellers. Its ultralight form includes floats and has been used in demonstrations and supervised public flight experiences.

LIFT announced an Austin experience center in June 2025, following SXSW flights. Visitors undergo classroom and simulator preparation before a short introductory flight, according to the company.

In December 2025 LIFT announced a three-version strategy including Sport and Certified editions. Those proposed capabilities and longer endurance figures must not be assigned to today's ultralight experience aircraft.

Availability

Supervised flight experiences; other variants under development

Certification & operating context

HEXA-U operated under Part 103; proposed HEXA-C type certification is a separate program

What to watch next

Current experience-location availability and separately documented approvals for Sport and Certified editions.
