An electric aircraft comprises a single passenger seat, vertical takeoff and landing capable rotorcraft with an amphibious undercarriage for ground or water landing and takeoff. An electrical power system includes an independent battery for each motor with quick-swap mechanism to enable drained batteries to be easily removed for external charging and swapped for a charged replacement battery. A ballistic recovery system may be deployed to safely land the aircraft in the event of an emergency and may be manually deployed in response to the passenger activating a deployment mechanism integrated into handles within the cockpit. An on-board flight control system includes an automated flight controller that places constraints on flight maneuvers, and a manual flight controller provides a passenger with a limited level of control over the flight.
