Dovetail Electric Aviation is set to supply battery packs for the five-passenger Integrity eVTOL aircraft being developed by Crisalion Mobility. The companies announced their partnership on July 26, with Dovetail tasked with integrating batteries compliant with aviation safety standards into Crisalion’s FlyFree propulsion system.

Spain-based Crisalion aims to bring the piloted Integrity aircraft into commercial service in 2030. The vehicle is expected to operate on routes of up to around 55 nautical miles at speeds of 136 knots and has drawn provisional pre-orders from operators including Wilbur Air in Australia.

Earlier this month, Dovetail, which operates in both Spain and Australia, unveiled a 600-kilowatt hydrogen-electric powertrain it intends to use for converting existing passenger and freight aircraft, such as the Cessna Caravan. It is also focused on converting aircraft to use a battery-electric propulsion system, incorporating MagniX’s 650-kilowatt motor with batteries provided by Mobius Energy.

According to Dovetail, its battery packs will comply with DO-311 and DO-16G standards and will be certified by regulators including the FAA, EASA, and Australia’s Civil Aviation Safety Authority. Alongside Crisalion, Dovetail—founded by Dante Aeronautical and Sydney Seaplanes—will apply for funding available from both Spanish and European Union agencies.
