One more?

There had already been one presented in 2009: new-transport / Terrafugia-true-wheel vehicle-hybrid-car-plane t7868.html

But generally they are neither good cars nor good planes ... for more than the price of a good car and a good ... ULM ... and I do not speak of homologation. ..

Okay ok a benefit is the storage and that makes you dream ...

Ah, in fact, we had already presented it here: https://www.econologie.com/forums/terrafugia ... 68-20.html

Whether we like it or not, all these prototypes announce that individual movements will undoubtedly take place in the future in 3 dimensions, as in Besson's film "The 5.th element".

When I was a kid I often went for a walk in the mountains and once at the top I said: "maybe one day we will fly easily to glide down or go from one mountain to another". I passed for a nice dreamer!

Today, on the summits of these same mountains we see arriving marchers with big backpacks, from which they take out a sail, and hop, they fly away to go down or go on another mountain!

They still have a bit of trouble from the bottom to get to the top by flying ... Or they arrive there but unintentionally ...

Indeed, for the descent is at the point. It is for the climb that there is still technological progress to be made.
We talk about it in 20 years ...

[Christophe]

Beautiful message grelinette, full of poetry ...

Appointment in 20 years? And the paramotors then?

[Remundo]

beautiful prototype!

But it seemed a little unstable in flight (the roll is very visible) despite the apparent good weather conditions.

It seems that aerodynamics is good.

in any case a very beautiful achievement, accomplished.

Aeromobil ensures that its flying car could be commercialized within two years

18 April 2015

The Slovakian firm Aeromobil says that its prototype of a flying car, presented until Sunday at Top Marques in Monaco, could be marketed within two years.

"We are only at the start of the homologation process," brand spokesman Stefan Vadocz told AFP: "It could be quite long because it is both a car and of an airplane ".

"But the prototype is already working, it has seven hours of flight time and its engine has already 40 hours of operation," he also underlined.

In the automobile position, on the road, the wings of this two-seater vehicle six meters long fold down. The landing is done on four wheels.

This is certainly not the first time that a flying car project has been developed, recognize its designers, but the firm Aeromobil hopes to be able to go beyond the stage of simple prototype to move to a mass marketing once the certification obtained .

The model could be marketed around one million euros.

"Flying, I have that in the blood. My grandfather as well as my father flew on ultralights. I myself obtained my pilot's license before reaching the age of the driving license", had Slovak vehicle designer Stefan Klein has already told AFP.

Author of several concept cars for the BMW, Volkswagen and Audi brands, Klein teaches at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design, in the Slovak capital Bratislava.

The first test flight of his Aeromobil took place in September 2013. In flight, the aircraft can reach about 200 km / h and has a range of 700 km.

oops the price!

[elephant]

Ben ... it's the price of a high-end Ferrari or a Bugatti.

A helicopter is double, right?
