As part of its efforts to achieve type certification for
its four-passenger Midnight eVTOL model, Archer Aviation is testing
all aircraft systems. The company just released a video showing tests
in which a battery pack was dropped from 50 feet in different states
of charge to simulate extreme impact scenarios. The tests were
conducted in a laboratory operated by the National Insitute for

testing with the FAA. In the video, Archer's battery lead Alex
Clarabut explains the process being followed for the tests, and what
