The World's First Commercial Flying Car

The early 20th century was a time of real experiment, with designers racing to make their next dream a reality. Various flying car prototypes have emerged over the past century, including Stefan Klein’s previous concepts, but nothing comes quite as close to KleinVision’s latest proposition. While the first flying car patent was filed at the end of ww, it’s taken a whole century to contend with the various regulatory setbacks as well as to perfect the design.
Footage of Slovakian company KleinVision’s AirCar has emerged recently showing the flying car make a successful voyage into the 3-dimensional air space. The video shows the car transforming into a plane, which we’re told is done by the touch of a button inside the cockpit. Onboard computers control the transformation automatically, fixing the flying appendages into place ready for flight. The whole process takes less than 3 minutes.

[@jannepeltonen2036]

The tail usually generates down force when flying. The wings generate lift ("up force"), the tail generates a small amount of upside-down lift ("down force") to make the plane stable. Center of gravity is typically forward of the center of lift; that makes two down momentums on both sides of the center of lift, and you can alter the one on the back with the elevator, and change the plane's angle.

Flying cars should be more like drones, than like mini jets. With airplane type design you will always need a runway to take off and land. With more of a helicopter design, like drones, you can just plop down and land and drive off.

[@Baribrotzer]

The engine shown at 3:03 looks a lot like a WWII Merlin. It has little resemblance to the Adept Airmotive engine - which is a wide-angle, water-cooled 3.2 liter DOHC V-6 with the prop reduction gearbox cast as part of the block.

Sir, Who knows it may be possible to make flying hybrid car which can vertical take off like helicopters to avoid runway requirement , and after it has achieved it's maximum height it can bring out it's wings to move like a aeroplane jet at a light speed. After it has reached it's destination , it can hover like helicopter to land and move like a car on the road. This is completely futuristic. Science is a Selfless service. What do you think ?
