I remember watching the Jetsons as a youth. Its cool to see a lot of those things coming to fruition.
also me as well watched the Jetson funny
I can see it now "drunk driver hits sky scraper 100s dead" "woman does her makeup, school destroyed"
We can't figure out how to safely travel on the ground and they want to put us in the air? These people obviously haven't driven on a Tennessee highway recently. Cause WOW!
No lights, quite expensive for a 1 driver vehicle and 20 minute drive, I like the concept, maybe in the future we'll see a better version of this.
Yeah honestly only positive is this could be a prototype for better things in the future unfortunately.
@@kairi4640that's the only positive ? after decades of waiting for personal flying vehicles, we get a taste of the future, but you see it as mostly a negative thing then?
Batterys need improving a lot. But should happen in the future.
Maybe with solid state batteries the range will increase. Have no clue tho. I don’t know why gasoline/diesel versions of this don’t exist.
@@licencetoswill Yeah because most people still can't afford one of these flying cars.
This is really cool. The only downside is the 20 minute flight time. Still, you could probably get to your local variety store and back.
Only a fool believe that. These craft can only sustain 11min on a very good day
@@ericylle6597 that's not very long at all...
@@ericylle6597 How so? Can you prove this?
Yeah. They're going to have to find a better battery and a way to recharge. The fact you can't even fly it in city spaces etc, only makes it worse, at most it would be a expensive hobby then a convenience...
Least we're starting to see something I guess. Better than nothing at all.
Reminder: Drunk drivers / Reckless drivers + flying cars = 9/11 (in some way)
Their will always be haters but thank you for continuing to innovate
That’s crazy. The jetsons are here
The Jetsons lovers, gather here! Awesome!! We're getting closer to living the fantasy ☺️
The flying saucer dependent, dystopian nightmare you mean?
Someone once said “we’ve had flying cars for years, they’re called helicopters.” The problem is that they’re incredibly loud and fuel inefficient; generating the amount of lift necessary to lift a human and a vehicle is going to be loud, there’s no way around it, and they’ll never be allowed to cities or neighborhoods.
Can't the blades kill someone? And make the battery life at least 1 hour in the fututre
Asking a lot...
I would get it if it got 200 miles on the charge. But not for 20 minutes on 100k
Incredible video, I loved it, the future can really change with these cars!
the promised "flying car" got a different look than we expected...
Kinda predictable tbh. It's literally just a large drone. The flying cars we want, would require new technological leaps in science to achieve.
What happen u hit a bird with blade or one blade gets stuck?
I'd need a version that flys over water and land on water (just in case) to commute from my private island in Scotland
Awesome
Can you add more battery, as long as it's not too heavy?
This would be nice. Since my parent’s house is about 20 mins drive. Got a full charge there and flight back without the traffic hassle.
The driver after 20.01 minutes 📉📉💀💀
Finally the flying car has been long overdue and a big gap in the car market
Yeah, I'm going to spend 100k to run to 7-11 and back. 'Cause that's about all it's good for. No passenger capacity, no cargo capacity, 20 minute run time, no cup holder, and it doesn't sound like the Jetson's flying car!
Yeah this is for billionaires who don't have anything else to do with their money then buy expensive toys for hobbies lol.
Awesome, would love one of these, and maybe make a 2 seat unit.
The unshrouded blades present an unacceptable safety hazard, both to the pilot and people on the ground.
So this does for cars and planes what the futon did for vouchers and beds basically? Combines them together into a shorter version of both! Like a stroad trying to combine the functions of a road with the functions of a street and failing at both...
I suspect he doesnt' need the helmet. That's a nice concept, but the poor flight time kills it.
WoW
Needs blade guards.. but gosh I'd love one to commute 30 miles but would need the range and then some... Scalability here isn't practical until we have better governance over the skies.
Whern current battery 250 kwh/kg evolves to 500 kwh/kg = there's your range. Few years.
Drunk driver crashes into school, no survivors.
Manhattan in ruins as 20th phone driver crashes into skyscraper this week.
@@5688gamble 🤣 There will definitely be a learning curve!
The future is here, the future is NOW. It's close enough to The Jetsons!
A remarks on the flying cars in general.
A flying car can fly. Fly over high mountains and sea, and land on an airfield and then drive over all existing roads in the world. Compare that footprint on a map.
This is essentially different compared to other transport. (train, car, plane). The transport envelope is much, much greater and very finely meshed.
The technical challenges of building are high, however. Flying mass, folding mechanisms, and road and air legislation togheter in a limited size and for an appropriate price.
The price is compensated by the transport envelope, which is really unlimited.
The A5 seaplane sells a holyday dream, a 2 seat electrical flying drone cannot drive over the highway with 130 km/h, a flying car sells real useable transport.
Hence it is another class. Only the moon is out of reach.
So: Think out of the box.
what is this guy trying to do with a cowboy hat?
...wear it?
i don't buy it either
When some one is trying to sell you a Death Trap, he needs a distraction.
What happens when the engines quit?
That's exciting! Finally a flying device. Great start!
Drone races like the RENO AIRSHOW. BUT SMALLER VENUE.
I love the concept, it's very cool, but the flight time is kinda short, and you would have problems with birds.
I don't see this company making it, I like the unit and there are plenty of people who can afford 100K for a toy. But they seem to be taking WAY too long to begin production (and now it is another year, which means it will be at least another 2 years before customers can expect to receive delivery). Its been promoted for a number of years now. Just too long on the promotion.
What happens when it takes someone's head off?
When people cant even affort a 10K second hand car 😂
So someone can buy one of these aircraft that does not have to be registered with or certified by the FAA and they can fly it *_WITHOUT_* a pilot's License. But If I want to fly my *_SMALL RC MODEL AIRPLANE *_** it has to be registered with the **_*FAA_* and I have to have a *_TRACKING TRANSMITTER ON IT THAT TRANSMITS ALL KINDES OF INFOMATION ABOUT ME!!!_*
Doesnt go high, doesnt last more than 20 mins, Its basically a ride on drone
That's cool but basically it's a mini plane / copter. Not a car car like back to the future kinda car.
I don’t know if I would exactly call it a “car”
Yeah they've been tossing around that term easily for these oversized drones. Probably to make futurists feel better about where we're at. 😅
It would be great fun to fly these in the southwest...but will the dusty desert winds gum up its works? 🤔
what about when it breaks and you fall from the sky?
That thing is probably so loud
I just saw Musk admit to Joe Rogan that he could simply double the 100 ah battery to 200ah in order to give drivers all day, but he doesn't want to spend one thousand dollars on that, for a 6 figure vehicle.
Any who, sorry. I wanted to ask if more battery could be added, or is that too heavy?
Where's the car? I just see an oversized drone.
If anyone living near me tries to get one of these, they're going to get a cease and desist order. Not urban transportation.
This is NOT a "Car" . . . it has no wheels and not Gov't approved for road travel.
19XX: There will be flying cars in the future
2023:
handy flying to the dole office on that
With a whopping 20 minutes of flight time you’ll be sure to be on the nightly news before you make it to Whole Foods.
Don't cars have wheels? Maybe a better title should be flying quad rotor?
This thing has to be loud AF.
This is a death machine if i ever saw one. I bet you've got to sign some papers absolving the company in case of decapitation or similar.
People been obsessed with this fever dream since the 80’s, let it go!
No Forbes flying cars are NOT here, just a click bait video. An upscaled quadcopter with a person in as payload for 20 minutes. Akin to a personal water craft with 20 minutes of range on a lake, but you get the Z axis that will kill you instead of running out of battery and floating in the lake.
The Blackfly by Opener is great too
People cant even drive in straight lines properly now we adding zig zags? this is going to turn out so well. Nothing can go wrong at all i prooomise!
Ah yes 99.000$
What guy wouldn’t want one?
At least we know, it's possible, granmaws ,won't allow them. In cities ,agreed, but not dirt bikes either. Wonder how many horse power is them electric motors, bet 1000 cc, maybe 500cc r 750cc motorcycle engine be best with driveshafts an gear cogs. Until battery technology gets to couple hrs
20 minutes, 63 mph, not allowed in cities, not allowed in controlled airspace, and can't roll down a street. This is not a flying car. It's a death trap toy for rich dorks and anyone below them
Wear Stetson, fly Jetson.
Battery technology isn’t there yet…
Is real and it's here however because of government's regulations doesn't give you room to advance quickly. Blades, propellers and turbine are going to be out very soon. Magnetic propulsion is the way to go, Wi-Fi electricity is already here one's the government's and others industries get out of the way and they will very soon. Flying cars are just around the corner.
J E T S O N S ASSEMBLE
Thats a drone !
20 min? 100k? Y'all crazy! Get back in the lab and fix this
Take that cowboy hat off with that accent
#USMint. #BillonDollarCashBankInEUA.
I remember one day in my human factors class my professor said just because we can build it doesn't mean we should. He was talking about infortainment systems in cars but this also falls under the line. This takes the term drive by to a new level.
For crying out loud, put some shielding around those propellers before someone gets decapitated.
How cops pull you ova ? Huh? Ah?
If you think _this_ is cool, I’ve got a *sweet* bridge for sale if you’re interested…
Rhetorical question: How many years can they _“Sold out. Maybe next year…”_ before the layperson starts getting suspicious?
In their defence, they do have a clever marketing/communication strategy: Tell the same outlandish lie enough times, until people (like Forbes) start repeating it. Then, other people start repeating Forbes. Once you have enough people talking, they basically just start re-tweeting each other, the story grows by itself, and Jetson can say _“It’s not my fault these people are lying, I never told them to say that…”_
Fraudulent business practices aside, I’m awe-struck there has been no criminal investigation of these people. And this isn’t their only “company.”
🗣️ So let me get this straight I can only ride it for 20 mins he left that out and how long it take to charge he left that out , if he doesn’t know how to explain these important things in a quick interview I’m not interested cause what else he doesn’t know how to explain .
This is just quadcopter its not a car
Would fly 3x as long if it used hydrogen fuel cells.
Cgi
That's not a car.
20 Minute flight time.. LOL! Hardly worth it. I would consider that there are far too many idiots out there to make this widely available.
More like flying drone tho 😅
These are NOT flying cars...
Magnifique, voilà les incitatives à encourager que de faire la g.u.e.r.r.e
DON'T DRINK & DRIVE TAKE DRUGS AND FLY.
20 minutes flight time! What a joke!
HALILUJAH JESUS AMEN ❤✝️❤
the future is coming...
This is not a flying car.
What a swell toy for the rich!
This is the future of the modern battlefield!
The US military MUST IMMEDIATELY procure 250,000 of these modified to be approx 50% larger. Primarily unmanned but, some optionally manned.
Partner with Honeywell & Raytheon to equip with ring laser gyroscopes for inertial navigation.
FPV & Telemetry needs to be a combination of a self-healing mesh optical laser link network & beam steering phased array/frequency hopping low latency SatCom link
Finally install Vulcan Gatling cannons, 2 TOW or 1 Hellfire anti armor missiles & the latest most advanced Raytheon hyperspectral gyros stabilized optics as well as IR laser designators.
This can easily be the most lethal piece of military technology in the history of warfare!
Listen to yourself
if you get paid general labour for less than 2 weeks minimum wage you can build a flying R/V that is programmed in the safest environment what kind of mink vybez are you trying to portray in this piece
unless you believe in a bullshit richmas of a bunch of people with separation anxiety celebrating halloween
What a rip off.
Flying moped
With 1.35 million fatalities a year world wide and growing proves we still haven't figured out how to drive on the ground😂
Dang, 20 minutes not much of a ride, hope battery technology gets way better. Really battery technology is what's holding America at a stand still, ev battles, drive hr charge 7hrs Drive hr charge 7hrs. Maybe if car batteries could charge while driving. Bet there's counter productive technology.suppressed
For less than $100K and will only lift a max of 170 lbs, ya, buy two.
Thats a drone !
