Fly or drive? New flying car offers both options

Most business trips are done by cars, not by plane, but the Dutch company has accepted new car orders for flying cars, so buyers can take roads and skies on the same journey .

A lot of money is poured into the concept of a flying car. Boeing develops an automatic driving taxi that will be ready in ten years, and Airbus engineers are working on a multi-rotor electrical model of similar equipment. But these two cars may take at least ten years.

Ever is expected to be a flying car that will be put to practical use in five years, Chinese drone manufacturers want to fly passengers to automatically drop a taxi near Dubai .

However, a Dutch company called PAL-V accepts flight car orders delivered to buyers in 2019 after obtaining safety certification. It is best to order quickly - the company is planning to produce 90 cars at the first production

The first model will cost over $ 620,000, but the buyer must learn how to move it on their own (the company also includes a purchase price course). Recent sports models cut costs by about 40%

The first model, called PAL-V Liberty Pioneer Edition, is a three-wheeled two-seater passenger car that looks like a small helicopter with a large rotor at the top. However, the rotor is folded and looks like a more traditional road vehicle. It can reach 100 miles per hour on the road, 112 miles per hour in the air, and a mileage of 350 miles.

Futurism.com reported that the aircraft was certified by the European Air and Safety Administration (EASA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

If you want to take off, you need a driver's license and a small runway to operate the vehicle

Flying Car: A startup based in Slovakia, "AeroMobil has launched a real flying car that can run on the street or in the sky." The company plans to start delivery in 2020, with a price of 31.6 million dollars per car is there. "The car in flight can be converted to flight mode within 3 minutes, the maximum speed is 100 mph (160 km / h) and the mileage is 434 miles (700 km) as a car.AeroMobil has 2 million dollars in the third round Aerospace Glass: Hungarian start-up companies are developing augmented reality eyeglasses for the aviation industry.This solution is based on the assumption that the pilot is in the topography , Navigation, traffic, instrumentation, weather, airspace information.You can see their demo videos to see how the technology works! The company has $ 390,000 We received the seed fund.

That is exactly right. We have a flying car. They are called airplanes. People who raised problems ignore that function (by air transport) as they concentrate on that shape (which looks like a thing that is flying in the car). This is what Erron Musk said, and he often said people often "live life with analogy". This difference is one of the big differences between continuous improvement and first principle thinking. Continuous improvement tends to be done within the range of the original visual setting. In contrast, the first idea is to abandon loyalty to the former style and to place the function in the foreground and in the center. What do you want to accomplish? What is the result of the function you want to achieve?

If you think autonomous vehicles are futuristic, how about unmanned aerial vehicles? Dubai tested the Chinese unmanned aerial vehicle of EHang technology company. As part of this ultra modern urban traffic this year, these electric self-propelled aircraft (AAV) fly at low altitude, carry up to 220 pounds and can run about 10 miles. Although the IoT vendor in 2016 attracts a lot of attention, it is still a promising technology trend because it can be applied to almost all industries in particular. It is used in the fields of infrastructure and energy management, manufacturing, agriculture, transportation, advertisement, medical care and so on. IoT devices have been used in consumer devices such as emergency notification and warning systems, air, water, soil sensors, health monitoring equipment, connected cars and wearable technologies
