Makes no sense why it's only 20 minutes at most flight time what a waste of money Jesus loves us all in these troubling exciting END DAYS ❌⭕🙏🏻

[@francoduarte6014]

Es muy bonito todo eso pero, no creo que a la gente le guste que un vehículo como ese ande volando en los techos de las casas, creo que lo mejor es que se utilicen las mismas vías de los automóviles y hay mismo pueden hacerlo de dos o tres hasta cuatro niveles de circulación vehicular aéreo.

[@user-zr9ku1hb7h]

Смотрю на эти ролики и двоякие чувства возникают. С одной стороны, можно гордиться смелостью и пытливостью ума этих отважных ребят, строившие эти летательные аппараты и летающие на них. А с другой стороны мне их жалко, что в любой момент могут падать и разбиться с непредсказуемыми последствиями. А все только из--за того, что эти аппараты не защищены от аварий. Но вместе с тем вижу определенные решения, что могут эти аппараты и полеты на них сделать более безопасными. Если конечно высота превышает скажем 100 м, это конечно парашют. Но, как правило они летают не на больших высотах, что исключает применение парашютов, не успеют раскрываться. На эти случаи вижу такое решение, это применение больших и легких воздушных подушек под аппаратами из современных, легких и сверхпрочных материалов, баллона со сжатым воздухом и специальными, управляемыми клапанами мгновенного спуска воздуха с болона и из подушки, с определенной скоростью и потоком, что динамично погасит удар аппарата об землю. Именно этот клапан должен управляться встроенным в систему компьютером, с определенной программой, что сделает удар об землю безопасным и динамично спустит воздух.

[@tylerhill9483]

the kitty hawk Heaviside design looks the best to me. I like how they use all motors and propellers for lift off and for forward flight, no wasted weight of motors and props for one or the other. I also like the over all aerodynamic design and very simple body structure. If I could invest in one of the projects and or buy one it would probably be that one.

[@bobhoward6676]

The guy landing @7:45 was so happy he made it and didn't crash and die. He almost couldn't believe it.

[@kiernanthomas6006]

@ 5:40 He begins to talk about the "ELROY" Model. Could this flying aircraft be there name sake of Elroy Jetson?

[@adventurousloner]

This video is the best of these I've seen so far. Great concepts.

[@CaminDaR]

u forgot ehang, the only one thats actually commercializing it

[@jeffchristianson-ziebell]

You know the problem with them is for over 10 or 12 years they’ve never gotten beyond concept… Every vehicle in this video will never make it basically it’s all pie in the sky- e hang Is nothing but a pie in the sky company they’ve yet to produce something that does what they’ve been talking about longer than any other company ever in history who has been stuck in the concept phase for so ridiculously long

[@stevemcnair-wilson6106]

Extremely interesting. As a follower of aviation over the last half century I was amazed to find out that there so many of these electrically driven air vehicle under development. Thank you for providing this information, about I have found no other source, Brillaint!

[@jahns6980]

It will be exciting. Battery technology is improving every year

[@laxtobuttgroyn1193]

Fifteen, twenty minutes is nice for a thrill ride, but not practical even for beer runs. We need breakthroughs in battery and solar tech to make beer runs safe and affordable for the average consumer.

[@ronhartigan7812]

Beautiful machines! I helped build, test, fly, and train in ultralights during the craze in 1980's. I have also flown radio controlled models and drones since the 60's. But with the recent restrictions on low flying aircraft, and overcrowded air space, I just can't imagine even a few of these aircraft legally flying anywhere near populated areas of our country. I remember the aerocar at the San Diego Aerospace Museum before it was torched many years ago and everything lost. Best wishes for all of you and your efforts, though.

[@coina-dig-tion6322]

I had the same thoughts about crowded airspace. gonna need low-flight ATC seems.

[@jacksprat1124]

I would imagine licensing would be important. Might have to fly along freeways or secondary roads until reaching a major city with landings on building tops. Of course there would be Air Patrol looking for speeders, joy riders, etc.

[@caiusmadison2996]

It's cause they drone us to living death, that is why restrictions. Some drones are low altitude, some high. Having a ton of ev helicopters, is exactly how ya get overcrowded.

[@anitamller4464]

JOBY Soaring is the Future of Flying Taxis 🚕

[@dailystreetchats3782]

Awesome, thank you for sharing this video, I just hope this things(innovations) will come-out in the market sooner.

[@chrisbell5032]

There are bladeless cooling fans these days (Dyson, never seen one in the flesh) I have no idea how they work or how much blow they create, but could they be adapted ?

[@agimasoschandir]

"Bladeless" fans still have blades. Desktop ones such as the Dyson have them in the stem or tower part and force the air through holes in a ring-like top. In air vehicles, much the same is achieved by cowls that surround the blades, or like in hover craft designs that redirect the air downward. If using jet engines, then you have craft like the Harrier jet

[@chrisbell5032]

@@agimasoschandir Right, as soon as I saw the price I clicked off the Dyson stuff lol, the reason for the suggestion was the safety aspect, thanks, Chris.

[@ce-750pilot3]

What about weather in all seasons (rain, snow, thunderstorms, high winds). What about navigation routes? And how about creature comforts like air conditioning and heat? Still quite a few issues to address, but I hope they are all solved in time.

[@daveriley6310]

. . . issues to address, but I hope they are all solved in time, and definitely at a lower price point than a Citation X. I think the Kitty Hawk Heaviside looks promising, with a claimed per mile kWh consumption at 1/2 that of the Tesla Model S.

[@alicespianomusic5091]

Wow it’s looks cool

[@thegoodthebadtheoffended6548]

person 1: You wanna take a Skydrive taxi or walk? person 2: Well, we gotta get to where we're going fast... person 1: Oh, Ok. Let's walk then.

[@necavenue]

Funny joke but out of all of these startups, I only see Toyota commercializing their 2nd generation VTOL first and in their home market. They actually have a target date, engineers, tech and budget. They're experts in hydrogren/hybrids which is what's going to allow long range flight and quick refueling.

Any idea what happened to the Kyxz Mediola? I have their channel saved but have not seen any new uploads in about 2 years. The last vid sjhowed their single passenger model flying untethered.........? Thanks

[@sfbluestar]

5:00 How much is an Elroy?

[@sharonkasper5126]

This is the future. Solar in flight charging. Ultra light composite materials and totally new battery design such as no lead acid. Looking real promising.

[@MickeyJaymz]

These are beautiful works of art. I look forward to the day the designers create something the size of a modern sedan that can be parked in a residential garage.

[@MarekGODZWA]

Electric and magnetic over-conductivity make better efficiency of electrical motors.

[@wilhavtawaite48]

And what is the cost to do 44 kmph for 30 mins flight time to where ?

[@yoitskimpoy2626]

Where is EHang?? they are already operating! also now listed on Nasdaq!

[@mainzy00]

I thought same thing

[@edl617]

I will wait for these to exceed a 3 hour flight time

[@totty2524]

Yeah, it's really depressing how none of them can exceed even 30 minutes. It seems like it will take a loooooot of advancement in battery efficiency until air taxis become viable for everyday urban use.

[@rasimoo999]

When will we have a personal electric drone for under 20k with 60 minute flying time?

[@petrsedlak4761]

Never. Except we invent new batteries with higher capacity/weight ratio!

[@petrsedlak4761]

@Wood Axes Because it doesn't make any sense. Heavy, low power, complicated.

[@AgentStormRage]

Archer Aviation backed by United Airlines with 1 billion dollars and Stellantis Chrysler for production is the leader in electric air mobility.

[@richardjenkins4182]

At 7:01 - the predecessor (Vahana) is more efficient than Airbus's newer design, because it offers wing lift. Powered lift drains batteries (or fuel tanks) quickly. That should be necessary for only 20 seconds or so at the beginning of the flight and again at the end, using the far more efficient wing lift for the cruise portion. Designs without wings are both slower and less efficient.

[@martypatterson101]

I'm still waiting to purchase the one man flyers. When will any be on the market to purchase

[@mikedemarco5199]

I am excited to see the progress we are making in this area! I believe we will see commercial air taxi's in the next several years, I hope I am around when these awesome vehicles are available to the general public.

[@alanbrunette7146]

I do agree bud

[@schnitzelschnizel9448]

The problem is the dang FAA!

[@maryhumphrey7645]

When helicopters came out in the late 40's Bell tried to market them as the family vehicle for transportation. But they were to expensive to buy and operate for the average family so it did not go over. Although these new vehicles are somewhat more efficient they will still require a lot of energy to operate (consequently a short range) and will not be cost effect for the average family. The is complicated by a limited operational and storage space. And then you have the operational safety issue of flying and collision avoidance with other vehicles. Yes some of these designs look good for commercial applications or toys for the rich and famous and will likely happen in some limited operations. But any of these or others are never going to be operational for the average family "flying car"

[@l3rlc]

If this is ever to go mainstream these things will have to be autonomous.

[@hermanstewart1463]

The air taxi prototype is the future for what the commuter train is doing. I'm sure they'll be equipped with computer/ radar sensors so that they won't have to worry about collisions.

[@Виталий-ь8м7в]

Again - VILLAGE - circular rings (6:02) - if they are NOT AERODYNAMIC - then it's a WASTE OF TIME (!) - or is everyone so afraid of the Dyson patent and their bladeless fan ??

[@fernandoyyo1]

Very nice flying cars / taxies BUT Good luck!!!!! It's already a challenge on major cities for pedestrians trying to walk safely on sidewalks imagine now having all these flying cars / taxies above your head and between buildings. Stay tune....FUN TIMES AHEAD!!!

[@indonesianhoney]

NEXUS is cool! Heaviside is nice.

[@chrisli5015]

How about EHANG,Chinese brand?

[@mydailyideas2634]

Very excellent 👍👍

[@stevesecara5774]

One item not mentioned is recharge time. Most reviews listed the flight time but nothing was said about recharge time or requirement. For these to truly become viable, recharge times most be rapid and require nothing fancy.

[@MrPatvee]

perfect. I need something to go 10 minutes from home and back.

[@rishi-eq8kx]

Beautiful Video.....Informative And Novel.....Sure I can see the Commute Of The Future.....HERE AND NOW !!!!

[@thebestofj.fraley]

More flight time, more weight capabilities, carry more passengers, do they come with air and heating, and mass production. Solve these issues, and you might have something. Meanwhile, I'll stick to Helicopters.

[@krm398]

if any of these are real projects then yes, flying vehicles especially in the major cities will be around in a few years. batteries were always the weak link and Tesla has managed to improve batteries yet again, adding nearly double the power as a few years ago. so with that to work with, yes small flying vehicles are coming.

[@generalyellor8188]

Nope. Too loud. You know how loud an electric-powered toy drone is? Now magnify that size to that of about a car. No way. No one will allow these to land anywhere near anyone's home if that home is anywhere near another person's home.

[@krm398]

@@generalyellor8188 we aren't talking about landing by someone's house, we're talking about probably used as taxis flying to and from airports from the top of skyscrapers where no one will hear. how often do people complain about helicopters flying over cities? They was way louder than electric vehicles.

[@MORE1500]

What's with all the propellers? I want anti-grav technology.

[@TONYPARAMOTOR]

what happened to the blackfly drone????

[@νικοςνικολαου-τ9φ]

No traffic,save time and enjoy!..perfect!

[@davidmarilley6060]

Cost per mile based on energy use? Price would best be looked at seperately.

[@stories-myhalfcenturyasapi3978]

According to the info with the Heaviside by Kitty Hawk, fuel cost would be < 3 cents per mile. Price of the vehicle will likely start at $200k +, so total per mile cost will be comparable to today's piston-powered small personal aircraft.

[@diGritz1]

Now this is just the thing we need to make America great again. Looks at copy of FAA Flight Regs. Remembers age........... Well FUC.

[@tackongultraman918]

Are their engines do by gas or electricity？ We have to think ecology spirit in the future.

[@DavidtheNorseman]

Thanks for this excellent peek at the near future for those of us who've wanted flying cars for...ever :-) My first thought watching these was what about bird-strikes? A flock of pretty much anything might wipe out a lot of those small rotors.....

[@WheezinGeezerTV]

All I want to hear about are non electrical. I don't care about a flight that lasts for 15 minutes. I need to be able to fly across the state, refuel and come back. Over an hour of flight time. I don't need novelty flights. But good video and presentation.

[@lvuman]

[@123santashelper]

Joby I believe has one that goes as fast or faster than these and farther distance.

[@dannyrodriguez5946]

yes. hope this will come to the Philippines asap

[@casienwhey]

From a technical perspective, certainly doable in the next few years. From a practical and cost perspective, probably decades away.

[@Ken-jw2nw]

I hope the volume will get large enough, soon enough to make the prices reasonable for the average person. I am very much looking forward to this happening.

[@dlomane1965]

Sorry, but I "can't do" Erlroy - or Elroy. It doesn't look stable enough to do any passengers.

[@MrTAGARON]

Here are the concepts and the same concepts as at the dawn of sky exploration.Remember the multi-engine aircraft of the early 20s of the last century.,,Now it all looks like this, Yes, electric motors have become more powerful,but the number of them is not who does not reduce(unreliable?or fear).The best option is 4 motors in the corners)) along the edges,and now if you like to draw,draw the shape, the material of manufacture, just a huge amount (sorry for the mistakes, English is not native, I write through a translator).

[@norivalsilva578]

Esse é o futuro da aviação para as aeronaves pessoais. Não há retorno. Fim dos helicópteros tradicionais.

[@johnrandom]

I don't think that we'll see these in large numbers in urban areas because of air traffic control issues, plus the inherent risk of flying in small fragile aircraft with minimal redundancy.

[@Terkrecoms1]

I think it will take a long time to see them up there. There are a lot of things need to be perfected or added first. I think it might take even more than 10 years but its good to see theses companies doing this right now because they are learning what works and what doesnt.

[@madeinchina1450]

That's exactly what Ehang has been working on for years, there must be a control centre to control 10,000 drones on the sky over the city, making sure they don't crash one another. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pGfRiYOVlpJksNk&ab_channel=NewChinaTV, you are not pilots, you are passages.

[@Eric-rt7jp]

With todays technology one would expect a much greater range and payload capacity. Somewhere around 200-300 mile range and able to carry the pilot, 2-4 passengers and their luggage = 1K- 1200lbls and then also be able to either fit as is or easily fold up to fit into 2 car space.

[@Eric-rt7jp]

just look at biplanes and cargo planes.

[@mjklein]

It's because they insist on electric only. If they put a five horsepower lawn mower engine on it with an alternator it could fly for hours.

[@rtchow3000]

no mention on power recharge time. maybe model T-Ford should bring back the steam engine

[@rogerstoodley7113]

I think the distance to weight ratio will be a huge factor in whether these vehicles will be used because I think distance will probably outweigh the amount of passengers you could utilize. Weight is obviously a huge factor over how long the battery will sustain itself. If it is a three manned double emergency/ traffic police vehicle where the two pilots are policing traffic areas when called into a accident or incident in the concentrating area. The pilots would also have to be paramedics where the third person is a potential patient that they would pick up in emergencies, way before a ambulance can get there in a congested traffic areas or remote locations where land vehicles can't reach, or reach quickly. The design of the vehicle would also be more beneficial if the back-up pilot not flying can monitor the patient while the patient is horizontal inside. Just a thought...

[@ronsheppard9895]

Best information about the subject

[@MrRushSkies]

1970: In the future we will have flying cars! 2020: Ok, follow me.

[@user-fs5mu6lz9b]

Verticle takeoff is preferred, all seem to be created with modified old technology. Speed and distance are paramount, and most don't meet this criteria to be viable.

[@computerjantje]

Why aren't they using a Mr. Fusion as power source? This 2015 invention by Fusion Industries can easily deliver much larger ranges at higher speeds with way less weight to carry along.

[@harryzero1566]

I liked the skyboat design best, you know, the one in the thumbnail. It would need a couple of mini jet thrusters and possibley aerofoil contoured semi ringwings attached to to leading circumference of the rotors. It would give it a speed boost and the rotors could be turned over to gyrocopter mode saving battery power for vertical landing and takeoff. If anyone could tell me if the overall idea is feasible or not, that would be good.

[@guywilliams3108]

Yes, I believe we will have sky taxi, some of the designs look like they have a future, many don't.

[@asmaangel1088]

Some of these are toys for the wealthy as they have features that a helicopter taxi service can provide. Some of these propellers around neck height might be just what Marie Antoinette fears in her nightmares

[@jammyrick4087]

Not anything soon , passenger room, and limited flight time are major drawbacks.

[@joeracerable]

The heaviside from kitty hawk is the best one.

[@stories-myhalfcenturyasapi3978]

Agree. Wings equal much-improved cruise efficiency.

[@billbob4243]

The plausibility comes down to new battery technology that is at least 12x the energy density.

[@alejoiiyacapin1913]

The time is very much overdue, flying cars should have been invented and very much developed and the technology very much refined because flying cars are the best solution to our nagging daily street traffic problem.

[@brotherlevis8553]

they don't wantpeople being free... flying would make "controlling" people more difficult.

[@pianoman1379]

Flying cars will not be allowed to be mass produced for the ordinary public because car drivers are terrible on the roads already and can you imagine thousands of flying vehicles in the air? Anything that flies should be kept to the millitary and Commercial Aeroplanes. Its a good thing that these new concepts are out of our price range and only the rich can buy them because it will keep the numbers and safety factors down to a minimum

[@banditt18]

I'd love to get my hands on the last one they showed

To extend flight time you need wings its as simple as that, maybe even a gyrocopter arrangement.

[@cuckoonut1208]

Or a jet engine that runs on a magic liquid.

[@jlgch962]

[@ReverseCity777]

You asked what I think. Well, ....I usually crash my drone soooo ahhh... yea you see where im going with this.

[@ArcoZakus]

Dj DVEVO, "... I usually crash my drone ..." And that's probably into something stationary flying by yourself. Imagine lots of those things contending for the same space at the same time. Cars crash into each other all the time just dealing with two dimensions. Adding a third has to increase that risk. I'm wondering who will be performing air traffic control with these things? On board computers? (Oops, that last software update failed to load last night ...)

[@killingfields1424]

[@FedFire8404]

Not a chance on such limited flight time. Some really good ideas, they just need a more viable fuel source to make the personnel or air taxi a more long range, longer flight time vehcile.

[@stories-myhalfcenturyasapi3978]

The Kitty Hawk Heaviside looks viable with wings, 50 to 100 mile range and 1/2 the cruising fuel consumption of a Tesla Model S. Minimizing hover and slow flight time will be key. Electricity as the fuel source is viable. I've had 6 all-electric cars with ranges up to 300 miles, plus two Chevy Volts which I drove 98% on electric-only, with 40 - 50 mile electric range. Taxis are generally considered short range conveyances. We aren't looking at cross-country transport options. Yet. Those will very likely be hybrids, much like the Volt.

[@rooseveltdorado6075]

[@cjpsatish]

[@cuckoonut1208]

Why hasn't any one tried a dual rotor ducted helicopter that runs on fuel? Ducted fan is more efficient right?

[@michaelgleason3728]

I think these are ultra cool. The only complaint I have is the duration of time. I know battery technology is lightyears ahead of where it used to be just 10 to 15 years ago. But it's just not fiscally feasible yet. When your talking a max duration of only 15 to 30 minutes of actual safe flight time that's obviously good. But in my humble estimation not long enough. When someone comes through with a real battery breakthrough and can at the very least double that to a safe 60 minutes of flight time, that will be a day to celebrate. Thank you.

[@robindreyfus6669]
