determine, based in part on the flight phase datum, a priority ranking for the plurality of system datum and a performance threshold of the electric aircraft, the priority ranking being based on a current phase of flight indicated by the flight phase datum;
determine a user interface based on the priority ranking, the plurality of system datum, the performance threshold, and the flight phase datum; and
an exterior view window configured to allow viewing of surroundings of the electric aircraft; and
a data display component configured to display the user interface on the heads-up display associated with the exterior view window, wherein the data display component comprises a monitor or a plurality of monitors forming a concave arc.
2. The electric aircraft of claim 1 , wherein the data display component is further configured to display a performance assessment model.
3. The electric aircraft of claim 2 , wherein the performance assessment model comprises at least a flight phase model depicting a power consumption of at least a battery for at least a portion of a flight.
4. The electric aircraft of claim 3 , wherein the performance assessment model comprises a virtual representation of the electric aircraft.
5. The electric aircraft of claim 1 , wherein the current phase of flight of the electric aircraft comprises one of a landing, a takeoff, a turn, an altitude shift, or a change in angle of attack.
6. The electric aircraft of claim 1 , wherein the data display component further comprises a first adjacent monitor and a second adjacent monitor.
7. The electric aircraft of claim 6 , wherein the data display component is further configured to display a first system datum on the first adjacent monitor and a second system datum on the second adjacent monitor, the first system datum and the second system datum determined based at least in part on the priority ranking.
8. The electric aircraft of claim 1 , wherein the aircraft datum further comprises a degree of torque for one or more propulsion systems of the electric aircraft.
9. The electric aircraft of claim 8 , wherein the electric aircraft comprises an aircraft configured to transition from a vertical takeoff and landing phase to a horizontal flight phase.
10. The electric aircraft of claim 1 , wherein the exterior view window comprises one or more of a display, a plurality of adjacent displays, the monitor, the plurality of monitors, a partial dome formation, or a partial sphere formation.
11. A method for a heads-up display for an electric aircraft, the method comprising:
receiving, by a computing device communicatively connected to a pilot device, an aircraft datum, wherein the aircraft datum comprises at least a flight phase datum;
receiving, by the computing device, a plurality of system datum;
determining, based in part on the flight phase datum, a priority ranking for the plurality of system datum and a performance threshold of the electric aircraft, the priority ranking being based on a current phase of flight indicated by the flight phase datum;
determining a user interface based on the priority ranking, the performance threshold, and the plurality of system datum; and
displaying, by a data display component, the user interface on the heads-up display of the electric aircraft, wherein the data display component comprises a monitor or a plurality of monitors forming a concave arc.
12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising displaying a performance assessment model.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the performance assessment model comprises at least a flight phase model depicting a power consumption of at least a battery for at least a portion of a flight.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the performance assessment model comprises a virtual representation of the electric aircraft.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the current phase of flight of the electric aircraft comprises one of a landing, a takeoff, a turn, an altitude shift, or a change in angle of attack.
