- The Jetson One is a flying vehicle designed for a single passenger. It has a maximum speed of 63 mph, and its Tesla battery cells give it a flight time of 20 minutes. However, because it's classified by the Federal Aviation Administration as an ultralight aircraft, it requires no license to operate. We learned from Jetson company co-founder Tomasz Patan how difficult the vehicle is to operate for first-time users, its safety, and what his company has planned for the future.

“Making cities better place to live”. Imagine those things flying near your window every 5 minutes.
lol pure horror. They should be aiming for the adventure types in the outdoors, having so many of these things in a city would be an absolute disaster.
Id be so jealous
@@GetUnrealistic
Red Bull Sponsored eVTOL races
we are all gonna turn into squidward all annoted about everything lmaoo
propellers can literally fly into your windows. how scary.
I am sure there will be a certain license for this if it ever takes off for the public.
There won't be as nobody will be permitted to manually control it. They will all be computer guided, using virtual sky channels analogous to 3D highways at altitudes low enough to be irrelevant to airlines. But until we perfect metal air batteries the only place you'll see these is where helicopters are used now, just more frequently as these will be cheaper upfront, as well as to operate (no fuel, no pilot). So, air lift between/to hospitals, police chases, rich guys traveling between city centers and adjacent airports, all fit within the 20 minute or so flight time also typical to commercial helis used in these applications.
Especially when those blades go choppity chop lol
@@mouldyfart Solved problem. Search UA-cam for Cyclotech.
Ultralights don't require pilot licenses currently. In any case eVtols probably will get their own classification by the FAA eventually, but if it requires a license to fly it will be much easier to aquire than a pilots license since these are almost as easy to fly as consumer drones.
@@Zamboro source?
Yo its gunna be crazy when they start racing these.
I'm waiting for the next generation. I want longer flight time but what an awesome vehicle.
it’s going to hurt when that thing breaks down, though.
Added bonus it doubles as a coffin. As it's quicker just to bury you in it. Than to try to get your mangled body out of the wreckage. This takes range anxiety to a whole other level.
they should just call these a flying coffins. l
Why don't they add a small 2 foot wing each side? That'll produce some lift and massively increase the range. As someone into aviation, quadcopters are very power inefficient but very maneuverable.
For the same reason regular choppers don't
@@ALCRAN2010 loool great response
@@ALCRAN2010 Regular choppers can still land safely if they lose the engine, though. This thing would just fall out of the sky...
no it wouldn't.
@@Kajenx Each prop has its own motor so it could lose more than one ,depending on which ones it lost , and still be fine.
That is some next level Osha violation right there. instead of your car flying, it's your head that's flying lol.
I am just not sure about their dream stated in the last part. We are already stupid enough driving cars, and with this in cities, we're gonna bring crashes and traffic problems to 3d, which is way worse hehe
Why? Why have you >not< put the rotors up high? Putting them low makes no sense.
Some people here don't seem to understand that 20 minutes flying time is not too bad for a first generation eVTOL of that size. Assuming takeoff and landing takes a minute each and for miscellaneous redundancies add another minute, this still gives you a maximum range of around 18 miles @ 60 mph. That's almost 30 km in a straight line. The radius of most cities (urban) aren't even that large.
Edit: If that comes with supercharging or instant battery swap features, it's game on.
20 minutes is a lie. they can't show 3 minutes without edits to swap batteries. look at all the videos they need to edit every 30 seconds
Yeah twenty minutes is twenty miles
I just came up with some pretty crude computations for possibly converting a regular car into an aircraft, although the engine would have to be modified... and the wings are the entire computation... and they need to be shaped like a cats claw pointing down (fibonacci spiral)... but my computations I think work, so,
the wings that you have to stick on to the thing would be 2/3 as long as the fuselage from nose to tail.... twice as wide as the fuselage, per wing.... and half as tall as the fuselage, from top to bottom horizontally.... tapering into a point at the tip of the wing in a fibonacci spiral.... it should fly! especially with the rocket motor... a regular piston driven internal combustion engine would either have to be modified into a motor jet or a piston driven propeller, in addition to this it needs to have a positive lift to weight ratio....so obviously a car that you'd buy it an auto dealership or just off the factory floor or wherever, you'd have to gut the whole thing take a lot of weight out of it and then convert some of that weight into the wings (like the fuel tanks can be moved there, and battery) or just put new lightweight Wings on the outside of it.... and then, like I said, the motor would need to be updated... but again as long as it has a positive lift to weight ratio and also it Bears these Wing dimensions in a Fibonacci spiral like the shape of a cat's claw or a raindrop or teardrop then it should fly.
The tail could be a 1/2 scale or maybe 1/3 scale copy of the wings, sandwiched together, on a spoiler mount.
Maybe one day, you can trade in your car, for a plane, for a small price, compared to buying a plane full price... it would still look kinda like the car also, and might even have the same motor still, although modified.
So a 7 foot wide fuselage would have like a 35 foot wing span, 10 feet long means wings 6 feet long from nose to tail, and 5 feet tall fuselage means 2.5 foot wide wings, AT THE BASE, like I said, a straight leading edge, and the rear end tapers in a fibonacci spiral, and the side profile ALSO tapers in a fibonacci spiral, from its thick point at the front and where it connects to the plane, to its thin point at the rear end and outer edge/tips of the wings.
Each wing could also be a box, with just a side profile of the cat claw, pointing down.... with the thick part at the leading wing edge, less efficient tho. More angles = more directed lift (air pressure)
So if the thrust to weight ratio is positive, it should go up, but the aerodynamics create a pocket, which acts like train tracks, leading in the direction of the sky, or a ramp, or roller coaster, always facing up, proportional to the amount of thrust and airspeed.
I think it's important to note that a lot of auto mechanics probably started out by being air craft engineers in the military, which was common at the time, after the war, these aviators then went on to become auto mechanics, which is why cars are built like planes, and not vice versa.
Where can I go to try and fly one of these?
I'm curious to know what the emergency procedure is in the event of all the motors shutting down and you're only 1500ft off the ground. That is not a lot of altitude to recover in, let alone glide the thing with no fixed wings to generate any lift once the motors quit.
Dense parachute
@@Wealthandlove-Everyone at that altitude there is not enough time for you to react to the emergency, deploy the chute, slow the vehicle down and control the chute to land safely. Based on the top speed mentioned in the video, there is approx 16 second for you to do all this before hitting the ground.
Notice how... none of these promotional car flying videos have any realistic sounds of what they really sound like while flying overhead, happy upbeat music always accompanying these Videos... in reality they probably sound like very loud angry hornets, can you imagine thousands of them flying overhead.
I’m gonna save people life with this
What could possibly go wrong?.....🤣🤣🤣
Say in NYC alone 1,000 of these were purchased and flying around in daily commutes, how long before the first mid air collision? How long before the first innocent pedestrian gets an amputation from those blades? How long before the fire department/hazmat is called to stop a fire caused by these ramming into an apartment block? There are cool ideas, but to ever suggest this is a legitimate option for everyday mass transit is asinine
Your living inside the nyc bubble if you think this won’t be useful for daily commutes. There’s accidents every single day nothing will change. I live in Louisville Ky a city with over 1m people but a lot of people comment 20+ mins because things are spread out.
Definitely recreational only... maybe if they get it to fly 2 plus hours on one charge.. great comment
Shut up critic
@@kennethhacker3014sound is a lot more of an issue
Not sure where the car part comes in... 🤔
People can’t even remember to do daily maintenance or fill up for gas 😂
Pretty sure they have alerts for when it's almost out of gas
@@instantheadshot3324 Fact. Yet people still do it all the time.
@@JustTheFactsYall Not me
U sure??????
Food rides in the future❤
But what if you took the wheels off the model S plaid and put those props in their place 🤔
I wonder what will happen when you hit an air pocket with a small car, I was on a helicopter that hit an air pocket, and I thought we were going to crash. Fortunately, it recovered. It feels like an elevator descending at a high speed, maybe a carnival ride. Though I've been in one, I don't know at what altitudes it can happen.
Wow
Yeah if this was adopted by even .1 percent of a city the fallout would be huge, so many dying from mid air and air to ground collisions…no air traffic control means they’d just be plowing into each other constantly. This is cool, but in practice would never work.
Basically a big drone, looks great
It's not a drone of a human is in flying it
Looks like one though
dang i need to buy one of those .. can you finance that..
That's mini jet right?
Does it fly on water
No tire wear!
Cost?
$92K
Yes please .
Look like it is the part of the avatar movie.
They should all have airbags in the form of inflatable bags that stay inflated as opposed to the regular ones that deflate immediately.
Can't wait to use that for my next bank robbery let's start the training 🤣🤣🤣🥰
Needs blade guards.
yes. all 4 are begging for one. Just imagine pedastrians getting decapitated by one of these.
this is the most sensible design as yet... i would like to see this as autonomous only and we put in the GPS and sit back. the thing will fly itself better than we ever will.... people can't be trusted on the road so i sure wouldn't trust the gen pop in the air.
What happens if a bird flew through
I am not going to fly in a plane that can only fly for 20 minutes.
However, I hope something like this will become the future, so we can get rid of all that asphalt and get nature back.
It would be interesting to see how a traffic jam in the air would look like. And you don't want a flying vehicle that suddenly stopped flying fall on your head.
Anyway, still pretty cool..!
Your seeing a 2d road. This is a 3d sky. As long as we have systems that can avoid other drones we can fly higher or have it navigate alternate routes for us.
These looks like drones
How much does it cost?
$128,000
20min ? Where can I go ?
Why are we overlooking parachutes and more safety devices for all these new flying vehicles.
8/14/22 - Sorry - 2023 is sold out now also.
Wow, a giant leaf blower!
That will never fly(pun intended). If everyone had those things they would be crashing into buildings, houses, power poles and wires, bridges, falling out of the sky onto people down below, and open up another level of vehicle accidents and deaths.
How much it cost ?
$92K.
@@bidnow2946 Thank you.
Fucked up building roads we need open space now
Imagine millions of these things going in every direction! CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH!🤣
A (E)VTOL isn’t a “car”. And there’s not even a remote chance this thing won’t require a pilot license at least.
It's just an amazing showoff for Rich's.
It’s fun and if you had money you’d do it to 🤓
We don't need a million of these things in the sky over our heads
Yes we do. It will be hilarious.
I would pay good $ for 20 mins on vacation
you would need to fly it 10 times to get 20 minutes.
Straight up Ohio
how to make vehicles run on alkali solution, ammonia solution, alcohol solution: electrolysis (can be fuelcell dry/wet hho, radio frequency hho, or plasma hho generators) inside fuel filter (injection vehicles) or big custom float bowl (carburetor vehicles) , and inside combustion chamber by plasma from multi sparkplugs, water laser ignition sparkplugs, we need hack the electrycity by change regular stator/altenator with high current one, then adding air scoop with wind turbine electric generator (all land, sea and aviation vehicles can use it as external electic current generator) inside it and put alternator on propeller shaft or axle (for cars, truck and other wheelers vehicles) and electric motor stator generator inside center of rear velg and front velg (for cars, motorcycles) this guaranteed free energy by movement of vehicles and wind that come from front of vehicles, then use supercapacitor in hydrogen generator connection cable and varistor in coil-ignition sparkplugs cable, then make electrolysis inside fuel filter first electrolysis (pem or plasma hho or by radio freq hydrogen generator), because grafity effect, water inside fuel filter or float bowl will make pressure so hydrogen don't come back to fuel tank come down but up right into injector or carburetor fuels spray, by injecting or spraying both hydrogen and water into internal combustion chamber chain reaction (explosion by next electrolysis stage must been happening inside combustion chamber) plasma sparkplugs or water laser ignition sparkplugs will make electrolysis+ignition , the principle is same like lightning strike on sea (natural electric plasma electrolysis) that convert sea water into hydrogen and oxygen + make pressure at sea water then burn it cause by lightning strike hit hydrogen (explosion of water on sea by lighting strike) on it this mean all vehicles actualy can run and burn on water and hydrogen, the scheme will same to fuelcell electric vehicles which when inside i.c.e engine we burn hydrogen and water in fcev we just injecting hydrogen from electrolysis right into fuelcell
Be careful with this information, the last man who made a working water engine was killed. He tried to sell it and they killed his ass. You would need to invent this engine, replicate it multiple times, and spread the schematics all over the internet.
20mn ? Only
more like 20nm
There's no collision anymore
doesn't even say what the price tag is on one of those
Its $92,000. 20min Range.
Might not be a great idea to just let anyone drive that...
not 20 minutes tho
This thing is awesome! 👏👏👏
It needs real and strict regulation ASAP, though.
This type of mobility can get a person ANYWHERE with extreme ease. This may cause severe and all kind of safety issues, environmental protection issues, etc... This is awful for wild birds for example. 😕
Wind Farms kill more birds than cars! Unintended consequences are a nuisance, eh!
But don't worry, green activists aren't after the birds, they really want to kill 7 in every 8 people on the planet and they know the fastest way to get to their goal is sustainable energy coupled with sustainable agriculture, just ask Sri Lankans...
Not really, the birds would hear and see it from a mile away, the other people flying there’s at 12 o clock low would never see or hear you coming though, then as you collide and both plummet to the earth, whatever/whoever is below you is gonna have a real bad day too.
@@joshuapatrick682 the situation you wrote is very important too!
I'm a park ranger so wildlife is my "thing": nature has little defense against us and our activities. Humans killing humans because they're stupid don't really bother me, they should know better. 😅 Like you said, birds would get out of the way and not get killed, naturally. But they would be highly disturbed. Sometimes the indirect consequences of our actions are really bad and we don't realise it.
I live in a costal area and, during migrations, at sunset, beaches get full of resting wild birds. Sadly, it's too common to see thousands and thousands of resting birds having to fly away, just because someone unleashed their dog at the beach. These migrations are brutal on the animals and a lot of them simply die, natural selection. Considering the huge pressure we put on nature, wildlife population numbers are decreasing. Last thing it needs is a single dog chasing thousands of resting animals. Last thing it needs is a couple of douchebags flying their "drone-car" to some cliffs where the last 10 couples of weird-near-extinct-rare-eagles have their nests.
Cheers! :)
like it's expensive but not that expensive..
Those can be used on Mars
"Land of the free" and you're not even allowed to fly to work 🤣
One well placed bird or tree branch and your an instant quadriplegic! What a great idea!
What's the last ray idea you had einstein????
They NEVER tell you the Price...
$22K down, $70K at delivery.
20 minutes? 92k? nope...
I'm fairly certain you DO need some form of pilots license to fly an ultralight. I haven't found anything so far saying you don't. It wouldn't be equivalent to the license required to fly a cesna obviously, but you do need some form of certification. You also are supposed to have a radio to communicate with airports though many don't have one. Imagine flying into an airport to land and not communicating then another aircraft that's cleared to land comes down on top of you. Also, anywhere that's restricted for a drone to fly is also restricted for these, meaning most cities are off limits due to airports, military bases, helipads and other restrictions. So that means this is currently only practical for people who do not live near the city, people who probably wouldn't really be interested ,or at least wouldn't have any real requirement for it. Cool idea, but at this point many different flying cars have been created, some better than this, and none have made it to popular public market.
I just learned that 2023 is sold out! 🙂
What the hell ima do with 20 min of flight time!?
That's a lot for a sports vehicle actually. For example, how many minutes is a downhill ski run? How many minutes does a dirt bike rider spend on the trail? Or a surfer spend on a wave?
You can go 20 miles in a straight line from where ever youre at...no traffic, no stop signs, no turns you would be surprised how far that is
it can't stay up for 4 minutes in reality thats why they don't show it doing it.
@@Thejeffbarger it can't go 20 miles thats why they never do.
$92000 and it can only fly 20 minutes (probably more like 15). It's a cool toy tho.
And gang members start flyby shoot themselve🤣🤣
should need some type of license to operate it, like FAA LICENSE
OK, so 99 % of cars have 1 person in them.... My concept of the perfect flying car is a "snap on snap off" 1-person lite weight electric snap on /off cart with a separate top fitting powerful snap on/off drone. When you get close to where you fly into you can un snap the cart and drive to where you need to go. You own the cart but the expensive drone is rented and arrives from the drone post ready to go. Keep the cost low and always have a fully charged snap on drone ready to go. Lots of Drone Ports (Think the new gas station) everywhere storing drones ready to go. On a long trip you just stop at a drone port and switch out the drone for one fully charged up. 99% of people could afford this! Keep it simple...... use what we have.... Once perfected this will totally disrupter old fashion expensive cars, clogging up highways and save environment at same time...??? Let’s snap on a lite cart to a powerful drone (like Volvocopter 18 blade super structure} and make it work for everyone. I AI CONTROLS WITH GPS SHOULD MAKE THIS AN AUTONOMOUS PILOT FROM POINT A TO B...... JUST TELL ALEXIS WHERE YOU WANT TO GO........ Then the whole trillion-dollar highway infrastructure budget can now be used to bulldoze down slums and build quality affordable homes with a drone port on the roof….! WOW….! WE NEED TO THINK SMALL INORDER TO GO BIG! I think this is totally feasible right now for under $10,000 plus rental fees per use?
Only 20 minutes, better run for electric generator-hho-fuelcell then.
Thats embarrassing, it belongs to drone family. Not Car 😂
flying transplant banks
Lol its not going go be revolutionary in any way at 92k
Legislators cannot allow this unless they GPS automate these. Individuals should not be allowed to steer these. We have enough idiots in cars.
I don’t know why idiots still think “flying cars” are such a critical element of the future. Any flying vehicle should require a pilot’s license.
This is a giant drone and should we really be trusting ppl with these? Only 2 days training? A disaster in the making. Make a Large Ariel Park instead and just charge for rides
That's not even a car it's a drone.
No license required. Basically a human-carrying drone. We know those never crash, right? This should end well.....
No wonder it looks so dysfunctional its a teala lool nah
Regulations are made to be broken. Lets be real. This is a commuter craft.
"a better place to live" if you enjoy the smell of minced flesh :p
This is not a perfect solution for flying car it needs more energy to fly more or else tesla need to change the whole concept of a flying car.
teslas aren't even tesla powered. panasonic maybe.
Because Is a toy with low range for crime
What? What crime
20 minutes 😂😂
Definitely looking forward to see more. Will love to have specially a TES. 🤩🫡🇺🇸💯👏🏾 kinda reminds me of star wars
