EHang Egret rewrites the global benchmark for large‑scale aerial swarm control!
Against the record
EH216-S, from EHang, is at stage 5 of 5 on our ladder: regulator-cleared or mass market. Cleared where approval applies, or widely sold. The latest milestone on its record is from 26 Aug 2026: EHang withdrew its 2026 revenue forecast. After a serious crash of a different, piloted small plane in China in late June, regulators became more cautious and slowed passenger approvals.

From the video's description
22,580 GD4.0 drones, ONE single computer, ONE unbeatable Guinness World Record™ 🏆 EHang Egret rewrites the global benchmark for large‑scale aerial swarm control, painting the night sky with dazzling, ever‑shifting luminous art in Hefei, China. This landmark feat is far more than a stunning visual spectacle: it validates EHang’s core swarm tech, laying rock‑solid groundwork for global Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) operations.
