- Jetson ONE is an ultralight and extremely fun to fly recreational all-electric personal vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft.
In the latest clip of the vehicle, posted on RUclips, the firm said: 'We have flown over the desert, through a forest. This time we chose to fly the Jetson ONE over water - the sensation is incredible and magical!'

I can see pedestrians being decapitated by that thing. That being said, I love innovation and this aircraft is great.
Ok the "evolution happens fast" line had me cracking up.
Yep this reminds me of nuclear energy, one bad accident (head flying off) and you will never see them again. Lawn dart come to mind.
buying this in the next 25 years of my life
Great car 🙂👍
I'm all In..🖐️👁️😯
I want one! Can wings fold in so you can transport them?
Transport is nice
腳位置可以寬點嗎？
Bagus saya suka sekali
I never be near this jet in person, however from experience i hope The roar sound of the motor and blade hopefully can be reduced
I like this concept and idea but not at 92,000
I agree with you, but since it's a concept and a new technology, it's going to be expensive, but the price will come down eventually like other new technologies we've seen in the past!
@@techcuriosity1 I hope so, I hope your right!!! That or I get into Welding and build one myself lol Life Size Drone coming Up!!!! lol
@@techcuriosity1 Agreed that new tech is expensive on the R&D end of thought, but investors are very astute and this is another spin on what is currently available all the while knowing that open spinning props, unshrouded is not a picture of what could be anymore as others are trying same thing with turbine engines dueled up on each corner for redundancy, thus no "Crop Choppers" which throws investors off. This is going in the wrong direction to attract money.
…..And not at 20 min flight time.
@@randywinner111 Well originally All V.R Tech was way too expensive and basically unavailable to the public but once the Oculus Quest became affordable the owner of the company made billions almost instantly as the product sold out in every country. They couldn't even make them fast enough.
Hang on, a range of 20 miles?? And then what happens?
Look this is like the coolest ever go-kart but it's nonetheless, a toy. For what 92k? For that I want a functional, vehicle. Looks fun though!
Compressed air nitinol engine?
The design of the Jetson One is interesting and got me wondering.
Why not somekind of a windshield infront of the pilot?
Why not ducted fans instead of open propellers?
Why not any sort of wings?
Umm... Weight
@@moroblizniak4457 I'm not talking about some glass windshield like on a car. Do you think 500 gram hard plastic film would make a difference? Because i dont. Also, forwards flight is the primary use for Vtol aircrafts. So minimizing drag seems like a big deal, at least for a final product. Specially when it can travel a day as it can.
@@illturralli I think in aircraft this light, any weigh is a huge deal.
@@moroblizniak4457 Well, the size of the lunch may or may not break that seal then. You have to think that they are selling it. And they aren't gonna say "sorry you're too heavy" to one guy weighing 500 grams more than the last guy who bought it.
I'd imagine wings would be unnecessary. Wings are needed in planes for creating an "upward drag" (I'm not a aerial engineer) and stability quick forward movement.
If you'd add wings to this thing, they'd probably act more like sideways pointing sails. Since this thing's movement is completely reliant on the propellers, the wings might just be and safety hazard if wind catches them.
As for ducted fans... that actually sounds like a good idea. The ducts would offer at least sight protection to the propellers AND protection FROM the propellers. Maybe if there was sort of a chicken fence under the ducted fan as well, then you'd not have to worry about dogs coming the greet this flying decapitator
Bien
Goodbye big balls
They gave us a visual but no sound. Too loud, too buzzy?
This wud be great if it can fly for 4hours....
Wishful thinking on the part of the manufacturer, all of the videos only show one vehicle flown in a completely open space. Never will be able to be flown in cities because of power lines and obstructed congestion.
Great, I'm worry about idiots crashing into me while I'm driving a car. Now, I will have to worry about idiots falling on top of me.
$92,000 for an oversized drone??
You should have a full in-person interview before you are allowed to buy one of these things
no hablen de precio, mientras no le inventen algún tipo de protecciones livianas y seguras para las aspas
Я один ждал, когда о дерево лопасти обламает?
Wow if I was going to put this aircraft, look at the icon, for sale it would cost millions. Special technology evtol, the noise of a running freight in the inside and have no blades, nothing to do with pushing the air, by the way is a 2 sitter. Flying this year before the summer. Fully electric no need to charge batteries. Thanks God almighty. (The motors are not visible from the outside) ! NOT FOR SALE ! This aircraft happens to be in Puerto Rico.
I would buy this vehicle, but only with price = 9 thousands dollars, cos I'm poor
หมอมาเอาไปใช้บนดวงจันทร์วันอังคาร
very exciting, but... will a protection around the props be available ? Indeed, I am sure that in my country, those dangerous props will not allow the Jetson ONE to be legally approved. Let alone that I do not want to kill my friendly friend's dog when I land in his garden.
I saw a vid with peotections.
Most people can't drive safely, yet alone park properly--and this is just in 2-dimensions (x,y). How do you expect a common person to do the same in 3-dimensions (x,y,z)? Factor in the weather, significant wind draft and gusts, and you're in for a death swarm. One accident/mistake easily cascades to the next trying to avoid mid-air collision. Put skyscrapers, towers, powerlines, trees and billboards to the mix. This thing is not for ordinary people.
A light-aircraft/bush pilot's license should at least be required to fly these. Imagine swarms of these contraptions with idiots piloting it. Even your homes are not safe. This is only useful and practical to a niche market, i.e.: emergency responders, police, military and hobbyists with pilots's license.
Yes, I can see idiots crashing into things/eachother in cities and falling to the ground .
They gonna have to create a drivers/flying hybrid license.
Sure wont need any parkin spaces does that turd jus disappear when u get out
No, not everyone will be able to fly. Some people can't even drive, God forbid these same people get into these flying vehicles. 😳
Голые лопасти, ни разу не безопасная штука, кого нибудь на фарш порежет.
Sure and who’s going to fly these things when 50% of the rest of us will be walking around headless? This is bad news for pedestrians dude!
Tell me you're short-sighted and have no imagination without telling me you're sort sighted and have no imagination.
Why would you be flying 1m off the ground? Why do you think the propellers can't be circled by a guard?
@@robertpaulson8790 Yes, right after you tell me... You seem NOT to have gotten the sarcasm in plain sight in my words. Silly reply dude indeed.
Only for the Rich with attention spans shorter than it’s flight time 😂
No it won’t. Also, it’s an octacopter.
I wish I could tell you, I’m SHOCKED at how stupid people are, to be willing to pay nearly $100,000 for 20 minutes of flight per charge.
Thing is, stupidity isn’t something, out of which, one can buy their way.
Those who can afford it, but i feel you.
If the place you want to go is ~5 minutes away, this is faster than any car and a lot more fun. Seems reasonable to me if you have that kind of disposable income?
@@creamfiend84 56
It's extremely overpriced imo, the manufacturing cost of one of these units is likely not more than $25,000
Yes, but they had to develop it first, which is reflected in the price.
@@generalripper7528 It's understandable that there's profit to be made, but a profit margin of almost 3x is a bit much. I guess you're mostly paying for the service, but just saying for $92k you can build a much better drone than this.
@@saturn724 Do you really think so? I have no background in engineering and I am not a buisiness man, but this makes me think of Tesla's strategy to start with the luxury roadster in small numbers and then to slowly grow the company to be able to sell the Model Three, the electric car for everyone. Might be a similar approach here.
@@generalripper7528 True. But right now I believe they are soliciting investors before the product is even complete, which runs afoul of the Securities an Exchange commission--I know because I was a corporate accountant, then accounting instructor and worked closely with the state and federal boards governing us--I am known for getting tip compliance laws changed in '92, which wanted a flat tax of 15 percent in the Casino I was Controller of.
It was unfair to our lowest and middle tier restaurants, which catered to seniors in bus tours, many of whom only left a buck or two on the table after a $40 dollar meal if they came in as a couple, or maybe five percent tipping at the most, our middle tier restaurant, only five to ten percent, and our most expensive restaurant, the tips averaged 15 to 25 pct--the joke was its Maitre D made twice as much as I did but they hosted the big celebrities and big gamblers--well deserved and he was a good buddy.
As a former fixed wing LSA pilot, I know the law when it comes to making statements about something that skirt truth, it was true too in the LSA business--mostly when empty weight was understated.
I also understand this aircraft would be kit built so its price does not mean it will have the same street value or the kit cost to the mfr would not be near the price.
I also know federal law--makes me wonder if this company is offshore and its investment money is going elsewhere.
I told the mfr already--if they do not fly at Oshkosh, Sun n' fun, or Copper State, they have nothing viable to share with us yes other than faked graphics, and I can tell that by the way the aircraft moves seemingly oblivious to ground effect and rotor turbulence, and at a speed drones could not fly at safely, like their previous video that resembles a clone speeder with Princess Leia on it.
I still get paid by the federal government, still consult on tax and fraud issues, but this company is not in my domain or a waste of the effort--where the money goes, I could care less, but I suspect their investors will never see the product or want to with a 20 minute range and a price per mile far greater than a business jet, since aircraft cost is considered at that.
There are good ultralights out there, some getting e-motors and e-gliders, like new LS8-e Neo glider, and the LSA Pipstrel e-aircraft I believe may have a 45 minute range or an hour, again at a price per mile much lower, and it is a production aircraft.
For $100K, there are good, fast kit planes on the market, or good, used Mooneys which cruise for hours at 180KTAS, etc, or a good used Rotorway copter if one wants VTOL and extended range.
If they do appear at an airshow with more than a static display, I will be impressed--an airshow is where I got my student LSA license for fixed wing and trikes. My Allegro trainer, as fast as a 172 and metal/composite, listed for less than 70K, fully assembled, and I almost bought one---but my wife and I went for a new home instead and I have rented in the 16 years since I soloed in a Challenger II kitplane near Prescott, Arizona, that was open air which is why I fly trikes now-----open air is a blast, I may one day get a PPC with gear (who wants to run).
Best movie I have ever seen on ultralights is Fly Away Home, based on a true story but highly fictionalized, which featured trikes and fixed wing, all descended from ultralight designs.
Human drones will come into their own, but I would place the fans above, not below the craft, just like RC camera drones, or ducted, but that does add weight. They will serve air and rescue, military, etc. If gas powered with a 4-stroke, there are some light enough for this aircraft, range will not be an issue. I'll pass on two-strokes, except for the oil injected Rotax 582 Blue Head, but that is too heavy for one of these drones.
I know they wish to use electric engines because of power to weight, and reliability, but even brushless motors do fail, which is how my Radian RC glider died after about 30 flights and only six hours of air time, or house fans die regularly, even air conditioning fan units--depends on the wear and tear and in the case of drones, flight conditions.
As for too many pax drones flying--rest easy, ultralights do not surround the crowded skies of Phoenix, RC Drones are limited to I believe 4-500 feet in altitude by the FAA and thus prohibited from entering class B airspace.
The ultralight laws are clear, and ramp checks still happen by the FAA, especially on kit built aircraft that exceed the weights the law allows.
My CFI warned me of that when I looked at several fixed wing aircraft, leaning towards an Ercoupe or Zenith 601 that had too high a gross and violated useful load with two typical 170# pilots aboard--I lost 60# so I could fly trikes safely--passenger weights will matter when these things--if any of the five or six I've seen mentioned now, get in the air.
For now, as they say in the software industry, they are vaporware, and investors beware.
The opinions here solicit good conversation, even the company owner has been polite and I figure his or their vision will be realized some day.
But beware "armchair" pilots or "old bold pilots" leaning towards not being old if they remain bold.
My ex boss by the way, is working on getting a bigger drone in the air, and has offered me a free flight on it--it is just getting close to the air shows but has only flown in a small area, free of buildings and other hazards.
i believe that will have the same price point but once again, limited in range since range puts on weight, like an extra battery pack.
I think they should concentrate on improving the flight time to 40 minutes rather than work on a four place aircraft. I want range not passengers.
Lol come on . Imagine EV range anxiety on a flying drone that kills you when you run out of battery. Or women flying this on the open road. Look out! This is a toy and thats it. J
Love clickbait like this, CGI all the way I feel. Gives me motivation to tell all my buddies to invest, or pre-order (NOT ;) )
I am a trained pilot, though non commercial, and I'd suggest buying an Aerolight 103 from Florida, a fixed wing aircraft, or a Part 103 Maverick Trike, (I have flown trikes, they cost less than 10K well taken care of, cheaper to rent with a CFI). One can stay in the air a lot longer given I have not seen any of my buddies, most of whom are fixed wing and heli or gyro cfi's, gandering at one of these at our local airshow.
If you really want to get a first person POV view of flying, any drone around $200-300 will get your eyes above the world, wasting much less space, and scamming no one. Which is much better than paying into these black hole, fly without a license, investment schemes.
Microsoft Flightsim 2020 will give you more feel of flight, and you can laugh at the production values of this video, since that sim displays flight even better.
how is this CGI, nobody asked about your flight career, and no microsoft flight simulator 2020 is not better in terms of realism as this actual physical aircraft
@@shil8952 Go ahead and support your game and your BS if you wish to lure stupid investors. However if you are caught with your pants down, the securities and exchange commission will be knocking on your door. I have seen no other "proof" this can fly, other than this same clickbait video.
And I do not give a rats a*rs about your opinions on MSFS or any other sim. At least they are not CGI enhanced video.
I stand by my opinion, whether you are PO'd or not, those who live by fantasy fail in fantasy and karma will catch up to them. Those who lure others to invest in something that years from now may be on the market for a rich kids price and 20 to 45 minutes of airtime when a gyrobee, short takeoff and zero roll landing, can be built for 10K or less, shame on us once, shame on u twice.
No CGI. Its true
@@Watcher4111 We agree to disagree. Just looking at the movement of the model within the scenery, the model "jitters" in some of the video in a way that is impossible in real flight. Such videos and the shills that post as to their authenticity lure potential investors to subsidize a scammer's lifestyle.
I know CGI, I was close friends with Larry Ferguson, who wrote the screenplay for "Hunt For Red October" as he produced it in 89.
I was given a private tour of the set at Paramount, as well as the set of Startrek TNG, and I was behind one of the cameras of Entertainment Tonight, given a tribute to Gilda Radner, who passed the day before the tour.
None of that makes me an expert alone in cinematography, but I have made many videos as a business planner and project manager, and know real from fantasy.
But my opinions, if they waste the time of shills working on behalf of this craft that has never appeared at the many airshows I attend, so be it.
@@Cactus521 ruclips.net/video/IUgKyNm5X24/видео.html. Here you have prototype. Definitely doesnt look cgi
20 mile range is garbage.
Great. But never ever gonna happen. It’s a death trap, too expensive, liable for a truly epic number of future law suits, no one will license it or let it fly anywhere and getting qualified to fly will be practically impossible. But, a great toy to play with in your garden, if it’s big enough, piss off your neighbours and destroy any habitat you fly over. The amount of restrictions there are to fly my little DJI drone are ridiculous, why would anyone allow this flying decapitation machine. 😂😂
Its great but a 2 seater is better, in 1 line, not next to each other.
