Abstract: In an aspect, this disclosure is related to apparatus and method for optimizing motor performance in an electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft. Apparatus includes a motor, an inverter, a sensor, and a flight controller. Flight controller is configured to receive an operational datum from a sensor, which detects a physical phenomenon and generates an operational datum. Flight controller is configured to generate an optimized switching frequency for the inverter based on the operational datum. Flight controller is configured to adjust the switching frequency of the inverter based on the optimized switching frequency.
