Maybe if the business concept works, they can manufacture a slightly more expensive GT model that can carry a heavier person with the same experience, and a lighter person could go even faster. I don't know how these machines will fit the climate change global fear agenda, but I guess we'll see how it goes as this story unfolds.
This will only be for the mega rich. They will never let the majority of "normal" people have this. The people in power are too afraid someone will fly it into a government building. There is almost no defense against that. This would make it possible for everyone to commit their own 9-11. Non of us will ever own this.
Amazing technology, just imagine the increase of speed when it comes to everything we do. Not only will this make our lives easier but the transference of ideas within a flying conveyance, our world will forever change

I am very proud of this whole crew! Innovation and determination always pays off! You are similar to the crew at Aptera, the 3 wheeled car! We have a beautiful Airport in rural Williston, FL. Stop in one day after a notification.
Good Job, Marcus Lang 👍! Thank you for making these very beautiful and very helpful flying cars! I really appreciate it! I really wish that I can drive them soon, too!
So apparently friend, you don’t have a car that has auto park! My car has auto part & it works pretty darn good! The other thing is, you will recall in the video, they say they have a return to home button just like we have on these model drones nowadays, so I hardly think that’s the problem! The problem as I see it, is it only carries one person & it just doesn’t have enough range to make it a practical vehicle, as where do you charge your batteries when they become depleted? So I like this vehicle & would love to experience flying one of them & I certainly hope they find a commercial market for them, because I think what we’re seeing here is a prototype of a forerunner of a recreational vehicle rather than one that’s used in a commercial business!
@@theodorehaskins3756 They say it is a recreational, experimental, UL category...not commercial since that would take certification in a different category...
Something happening like that is possible that's for sure, but should that mean we shouldn't continue to move forward?

As for the rest if us that want to are going to and there's nothing you can say or do that will stop us from evolving. We can respect you in wanting to stay where you are just show respect to the ones that want to move forward.
Drones don’t even do that. This has crash avoidance built it, if it gets to close to an object it stops and if it gets too close to the ground it lands. Again, fly an average cost modern drone and you won’t be worrying about texting and drinking in these
Retcon. These flying cars are looking more and more like sci fi movies of the early 1930s. Propeller craft that move vertically and horizontally. As time moves on, you never know what eras got it right when they once looked funny to later viewers.
Its all fun and games till system failure or pilot error. There is no walking away from those crashes, and anyone underneath is going with them. Good luck getting an insurance agency to cover that one.
@@electricaviationchannelvid7863 It requires too much room, too much noise, too much speed, etc. Relying on air to create your lift and propulsion is primitive, dangerous, high maintenance, expensive, and requires skill and knowledge. Even with increased automation and advances in multirotor aircraft, it's just asking for multiple daily disasters per city. Picture every broken down car you see on the side of the road. Those would all be deaths if they were aircraft. Cars won't be going anywhere any time soon. In the not too distant future, aerodynamics (apart from reducing drag) will be a thing of the past and we'll be using the earth's magnetic field instead, even if it is incredibly weak. The tech will all be silent, solid state, and redundant. You will be able to remove air from the equation altogether. In the following decades it will be scaled down for the masses. I just hope it takes longer than I anticipate because I dread the day I'm camping in the middle of nowhere and a flying minivan lands beside me. Accessibility will be the death of seclusion.

@@gravityslave5811 IMO this is why should be largely automated flight - shouldn't be able to just take the stick unless you're certified.

This would be the only scalable way to make air flight open to everyone IMO (outside of air taxi with trained operators).
As someone that is involved in Transport Canada aviation department, I am sceptical about these manned drones to ever be allowed to be sold at a scale of wars etc... for very reasons already mentioned in the commets. These things would pose massive safety and liability issues both in the sky and on the ground. They will be implemented on the market to be sold under similar circumstances as Cesna etc... is sold today. Only to people with pilot's licenses etc... I suppose it can be licensed as ultralight which have set of requirements as well, and yes, obtaining ultralight license isn't too difficult... at the moment. As technology changes and new risks are I reduced, so will the licensing.
Flying car is good idea!⭐️ Genius this guy makes dream life closer 🌙 Just so Amazing avoiding the stupid traffic problem… Personally don’t attacked by any car by far now, any thing on the low ground is boring for me. Please make it happen all crazy designers love you guys 💖:)
Popular Science and Popular Mechanics magazine have run a similar story on many inventors like this since the 1970s. So there's reason to question if it will become a thing.
Yeah a flying car could change life. Especially when they have ‘flying car’ accidents, killing not only the operators but fall from the sky and kill others.
Yeah he's being realistic but the same was also said about cars and even though it's true that some have died in accidents involving cars, it still didn't stop us from evolving forward. If ypu don't want to use it and are afraid of what might happen, then simply step aside and don't be around wherever these things may be. As for the rest of us that want to evolve, we have a bit more faith in our own kind and are going to want to try and use it even if there's people like you that oppose. The ones that want to risk there lives should be allowed to and the ones that don't are also allowed not to. So just step aside and let the ones who aren't afraid to move forward. Basically move out the way so we can move forward.
He's not being anti-technology cause if he was he wouldn't be commenting from his device. He just needs to have a little more faith in his own species.
Excellent this technology leads to future advanced space aircraft in near future to travel in space from one planet to another planet like travelling from country to many countries... So incredible exposure to the space market (😮 wow)
Slow down there buzz lightyear. We haven't even perfected going to the moon and back till we do that we ain't going to any planet. I'm not saying I'm not for space travel but let's keep it realistic.
yeah, they should finally consider this things nerv thousands of people at once, for one person having its fun. They may consider prohibit it if its more nervy than usefull. Not that im promoting that, first we look how bad it is, but my feeling says, those things are stressy for others. Imagine streets without cars for a secound, one could walk as drunk as he wanted, those are actually a constant threat. Now this is just even worse, alltho the threat is more "in the brain" . I mean i heard once a Drone, and even from this i feel constantly endangered. I want a free world, so lets let them do, but if its to nervy....
Cool as it is, imagine the damn noise of hundreds of these blender mounted vehicles buzzing around. I already can’t stand listening to my neighbour’s electric leaf blower once a week.
Say goodbye to air traffic control reporters in helicopters, plus I won't doubt it if law starts using it first. It'll be something extra to use when monitoring for public safety. The simple fact that it takes off vertically makes it ideal to use within the inner cities where there skyscrappers.
How about make those ( jet packs, that Bear of the Television ) show used on one of his shows.(The original jet pack was made in ladder years of , ( 1957 or 1958) was seen at many venues , at race tracks and so on.A safe jet pack would be so cool.They are flying small devices in Dubai giving out parking tickets. 😁
Just like with cars there would have to be specific path ways where you are allowed to fly this thing. Just like with cars if you aren't driving in the streets it's called off roading. You can't just drive onto someone's lawn because you want to, well you can but that doesn't mean that you should. You can drive a car on a sidewalk but we don't cause we know better. Same type of logic will have to go into these new flying machines.a whole new system of roads would have to be embedded in our society. Just like there are freeways and fast lanes there would have to be designated fly zones where you are allowed to fly over. Cause you don't want these things flying all over the place without any safety precautions. Egen though i want to fly these things myself, I also don't want people to be flying these things over my house.
This will only be for the mega rich. They will never let the majority of "normal" people have this. The people in power are too afraid someone will fly it into a government building. There is almost no defense against that. This would make it possible for everyone to commit their own 9-11. Non of us will ever own this.
the biggest hurdle will be where the heck do you park this thing... unless it has a return to home button and you summon it back to collect you when it is needed again.
A great recreational vehicle, to be flown away from cities and only out in the country side. (obviously) And only for the well heeled. Kind of like an ultralight with a very short takeoff and landing capability. Don't get excited these will be restricted to rural areas for sure, not in controlled airspace. Good stuff. Cheers.
JMO, if only able to use in rural areas (for obvious reasons), it would be more beneficial to have two seats in order to accommodate commercial use (doing flight tours to paying customers). Obviously with the already strict weight restrictions it's probably not feasible but such a vast majority of the market will be closed to this product that 'commercial use' could be a motivating factor for purchase. As it stands now, it's pretty much just for the enthusiast. With the price, weight restrictions and ability to tow/carry it somewhere being a challenge they'd struggle to even reach 5% of say something like the ATV market. You can also bet that here in Canada, within a very short period after release the Gov't would create hand over fist restrictions, rules and red tape, why, because that's what Canada does :-)
As a pilot, I don’t see “flying cars” being realistic anytime soon. Federal Aviation Regulations and sharing of airspace with commercial (read: BIG jets) and general aviation will be the major hurdles.
sucks that you can't even take a suitcase, This would get me to work, not very much faster than a road car (65 miles per hour) not to Florida from New England to see my aunt and uncle and I could bring my lunch and that's about it. I want one with as much cabin space at least as a 4 door sedan. 200 lbs as other have said would disqualify me, for my body type I'd be UNDERWEIGHT if I weighed less than that.
@Patrick Difference is modern cars are already great, and getting safer and better everyday. Flying cars are still unproven with virtually unknown safety.
@@bradleylatham8184 if you plug it into a solar powered supply maybe but that would mean everything electric is integrated. we would need nuclear reactors for lots of these.

@@achristian7015 get ready for 911 part 2 and more
It's a plane with wheels. That is not new or what people think of when they think about flying cars. It is a plane made road freindly.
What could possibly go wrong.
This will require some type of air cops.
I'd watch Mile High Cops
What about Bird strikes? Can any of these craft maintain control after a Rotor collision?
It looks like something from the future.
I remember the first time I saw this headline 70 years ago.. smearrrrr
What could possibly go wrong?
@Patrick Difference is modern cars are already great, and getting safer and better everyday. Flying cars are still unproven with virtually unknown safety.
@@KB-bh9hp you could've said the same thing about cars before horses and carriages became obsolete.
If you crash your flying car and die but the autopsy reveals you had covid, is it still a covid death?
The easiest of convenience, the highest risk of death 🙂
I will fly only 1 meter high so I can feel safer
So many evtol invented already but still none is in commercial use.
My dream now is to fly and on a jet.
Imagine the energy usage required for these flying cars. These may have an impact on our climate.
the people that fall from the sky and die will use less fuel in the long term.
@@frankyflowers Just tape it with a lot of cushion like giant sponges
hey bro, sloar energy is incorporated
@@bradleylatham8184 if you plug it into a solar powered supply maybe but that would mean everything electric is integrated. we would need nuclear reactors for lots of these.
It's a flying vehicle all right, but I don't see how it can be called a car.
they didn't call it a car? the title is flying cars, one step closer?
It's for fun. Like the children flying the planes with remote control.

Still not going to happen. We'll see nothing like from scifi movies and tv show. Ppl keep saying "The Jetson" flying car type, but sadly its just a fictional cartoon with made up propulsion system.
Maybe sneak to Area 51 and steal them back engineered anti-gravity alien tech. I'm sure we'll get those flying cars like Blade Runner movie.
Imagine this mounted with Gatling guns and you've got a new type of fighter aircraft!
I can see this being used to rescue cats from trees.
What are you? 12?
Elon Musk said hold my beer.
Blackfly Blackfly, always the Blackfly...in North...ontar...i...o....i..o. - will Blackberry be doing the securing of the onboard electronics?
WHAT IS THE PRICE OF THAT BAD BOY I WANT ONE
If they dont float/ has anti gravity they are not "flying cars" they are just smaller planes.
let's see how it does in the crash tests. The cost could buy a really good car that has a trunk and a better performing airplane.
