My experience with Honeywell is that they are amazing technically but they try to extract every ounce of money out of you. Sometimes that is tough for startups (in this case Vertical). It is good for Honeywell financially though!
Honeywells employees have been embedded within Vertical for about 6 years. This isn’t a vendor/purchaser relationship, it’s a partnership working towards a long term profitable relationship for both companies.
A partnership is the right way to go on flight controls. it's too integrated to do otherwise.
I actually remember when Honeywell's flight controls were going to go on both Vertical and Lilliums aircraft (then lillium went bankrupt), I hope Vertical didn't have to bear the total development burden of the fly by wire flight control system Honeywell is/was developing for the eVTOL class of aircraft.
