Thundergod Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 It was flying for like 4 secs and then it landed again? WTF... and what's the deal with it being half a car? If you want to take it to the streets you have to do something about the wings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSG_Standard Posted March 19, 2009 Author Share Posted March 19, 2009 It's funny, this at least the 4th or 5th attempt at a flying car for the masses...Seems crazy to me, can you imagine some of the same bad drivers flying over the cities? Why not a helicopter/motorcycle? A hot air balloon/bicycle? An ultralight aircraft/bicycle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grampa Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 We can't even control ourselves with our cars on the roads so having flying cars seems like a potentially a very insane situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basshole Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 you drive it to the airport then take off, On a full tank gas it can travel I think 300 miles aprox. The wings fold up to drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fartz Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I don't see how they could regulate traffic in the air. There's too much 3 D to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I'll have one! If it can get me to Orange County and back to Santa Barbara County on a tank of gas, I'm good, I'm good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
