    Back in the days when I was a teen watching the tv series “Beyond 2000” and the show stating that we would have flying cars, I truly believed that it would be the US that were going to design the first roll out of the flying car but here we are witnessing history in the making and it is in fact China leading the race. Go, go, go China let’s get it! 🇨🇳👏👏👏

      It looks to me that a 4 small propeller design consumes less power thus allowing them to be powered by batteries. Not to mention, this is significantly more stable than a traditional helicopter design. Combine that with automatic stabilizing tech as the video mentioned, it's much easier to pilot than a regular helicopter. There's a reason small drones aren't designed like miniature helicopters.

    It’s in our genes to explore and try new things, but flying cars, I think, are one new thing that is going to be forever in the future - never quite ready for prime time. We’ve had vehicles for ground travel for over a hundred years and we still have trouble using them safely. So, flying cars? Ha! Forget about it!

    Air transports like this won't happen in China, people are gonna go mad when they drive those things. This is basically a helicopter that looks like a drone. Pilots needs to be trained for years just to drive a heli or plane.
