Abstract

Described herein is an electric aircraft comprising a battery pack to power the aircraft. The battery pack comprises a housing, an arrangement of battery cells within the housing and a crumple structure associated with the battery pack. The crumple structure is beneath the arrangement of battery cells and is adapted to compress in the event of an impact from beneath the aircraft. A venting channel is fluidically coupled to the battery cells and arranged to vent gasses away from the battery cells. The venting channel passes through the crumple structure and is adapted to deform with the crumple structure in the event of an impact from beneath the aircraft.
