Parajet Skycar - The flying car maiden flight.

[angeletz1]

I want to fly in the skycar!

[OCforVids]

'Noone's ever made a flying car that really works'. And sorry Gilo old mate, you didn't change that fact. I'm still deciding whether this really wasn't a deeply subversive satire. I was sure it was a mockumentary the moment they caught the ferry to France (LMAO), but it appears that sadly, this was a genuine production. A dune buggy with a parachute, haha. Deary me.

[bartisola]

@OCforVids the reason they did not fly the english channel was because the British authorities would not give them permission to take off from england and the French to land in France. I was there when they flew across the Straits of Gibraltar and it seemed to fly well enough. I'm not trying to start an argument just thought I would add some relevant information.

[TripleX2go]

This remind me of Mad Max and The Thunder Dome.

[narugay987]

is this going to be available in the US

[Agent739]

Wow that is brilliant man...awesome!

[tutenkuman]

well done. wish you success. can see it as new extreme sport.

[johnangelo75]

what a pile of shit...there is nothing original about this looks like something from 200 hundred yrs ago

[toranamunter]

oh well, you couldn't afford it anyway

[johnangelo75]

stupid comment

[roblanco]

Oh... I'm sure you speak from experience, because you can do better.... you can afford the buggie, the high power fan, the cannopy that is fit to hold the weight of the buggie. I'm sure you can do a lot better AND with style... seeing as how you are so critical about it. I mean... it MUST be... you can't be possibly talking out of your ass can you? I mean... there's no possible way you're just a fucking idiot, is there?

[johnangelo75]

@roblanco exactly the opposite you must be a fucking idiot to think this is a good idea...

[roblanco]

@johnangelo75 ... it's a buggie with a parachute.... WE'RE NOT GONNA DRIVE IT AROUND THE CITY AS IF IT WAS BLADE RUNNER YOU IDIOT... this is cool... I would like to drive that, ON THE FUCKING BEACH.... god... you're stupid to think this is actually thought for city travelling. God .... really... either you're a retard or you've seen too many movies.

[johnangelo75]

@roblanco exactly a buggie with a paracute......and if you watched all of that tv show they drove across europe to africa ....and they were trying to fly it..they are marketing it as a flying car not a toy for the beach..retard...next time you start making comments at least have a clue what you are talking about dickhead.

[roblanco]

@johnangelo75 OMG YOU ARE DUMB!!!! They made this car for an expedition from London to Timbuktu and they are not marketing it as a flying car viable for the city you dipshit. It's a hobby car, it doesn't meet regulations for flying in towns. So stop acting like a little bitch, use your head for a fucking second and shut the fuck up. You can't do any better, you don't know what the fuck you're talking about, and worse of all, you act if you knew.

[johnangelo75]

@roblanco why the fuck did you say it WE'RE NOT GONNA DRIVE IT AROUND THE CITY....now you saying its viable for the city...do you believe everything you read on wikipedia....they only one here acting like a bitch is you....the big hard man on the internet...were you bullied at school and now this is your chance to act like a big man....living your fantasy life of being someone online...looser

[roblanco]

@johnangelo75 what the fuck are you talking about man? First... I said it was NOT viable for driving around the city, it's a hobby car made for an expedition. You read what you feel like reading and act like a little bitch accordinly, I guess anonimity + internet = jackass punk who thinks he's a big shot (that's you). Second of all, you think you know me from swapping 3 responses over the internet, on youtube? You man... have issues... BIG issues.

[johnangelo75]

@roblanco as i said little rich spoilt brat who was bullied in school....who now surfs online trying to make him self sound big...insulting people you are an idiot....you cant spell.....calling people a bitch....in reality i know you are the bitch......because a real man has nothing to prove where as a bitch ie you has to make himself feel better by trying to put others down....did you cry after school ....or did you not get enough attention as a child was that it?

[roblanco]

johnangelo75 I think you're just projecting here, seeing as how you seem to know much about little kids who get bullied at school. I don't try to make people feel stupid, I just try to make YOU feel stupid for the way you're behaving. You're a hypocrit that says bitching online is for immature little men when you're the one bitching about, throwing lame ass insults in crappy ass grammar.

[roblanco]

Reality is you don't know wtf you're talking about, first you criticize and dismiss an invention when I KNOW you can't do any better. Then you throw little tantrums, engaging in meaningless discussions and when your arguments are weak, you simply slander someone else appealing to the sense that "you know him" from a youtube discussion. Then you misread the response and bitch about your own confusion. You're just a hypocrit little kid who doesn't know wtf he's talking about.

[roblanco]

You can't even organize the thoughts in your head and reply with coherent arguments. You try to psychoanalize people online... really... come on. Drop the smart act kid, I don't buy it. You don't know me... and you're an IDIOT to pretend to know me.

[johnangelo75]

@roblanco a spoilt little rich kid that was bullied at school...awh poor you

[roblanco]

@johnangelo75 that's it? That's all you can come up with? "rich little SPOILED (not spoilt) kid who got bullied at school"? hahaha, you're pathetic man. With your little online tantrums, Mr. Big Man... with the Big Mouth. Can't even spell right... can't read right... can't even throw a decent insult. Hahaha you're just a pathetic little man, aren't you?

[johnangelo75]

@roblanco ah firstly spolit is a correct spelling so I dont have a clue what you are on about....online tantrums sounds are little like you.....I dont go around online insulting people....but it seems you do and I would say regularly ....you are one of these little babies who try to make people feel stupid because of their spelling....how sad is that...........

[BigDuke6ixx]

@johnangelo75 "ah firstly spolit is a correct spelling" is it fuck.

[johnangelo75]

@BigDuke6ixx what u do surf the net looking for typo's

[ligerroxs]

waching now i seen mo bigger gokarts why dont try fly ford escort wackos yoo upp i koolllllllllllllllll eyyfyyyy ruufyyy

[phxfreddy]

English turds "pushing the envelop" .... I think not my dear Watson!

[martsell09]

Who are you calling English Turds?, Jog on you mug

[kougercat]

It looks like very dangerous fun to me!

I dont know if this guy is for real or not though talks alot of shit hmmm

Im bored now NEXT PLEASE

[brokenspar]

This is just a copy of other flying vehicles that use parachutes and a pusher prop. Also, maybe this so-called "inventer" should look up the name Molt Taylor, his flying cars are still flying and he can pull his wings like a trailor. This is NOTHING new to the aviation world.

[JeremySatan]

That is absolutely shit.

[doodes25]

oh jolly good show !!! things like this have been around for years !

[Pilotrachel]

Wow I want one of these. Well done boys!

[btpants]

have you seen the next generation skycar from the same guys? that looks a lot more realistic. check out their website. no doubt the rest of the world will pinch the idea and come up with something more commercial

[aryanguenthner]

How much do you think they will cost?

[engine6437475]

This is a better product than I suspect any of you lot could come up with put together. Its not trying to be anything its not...after it is a car that flies that is flies is it not? Has anyone come up with anything better here? I suspect not. I think their innovative approach should be admired rather than shunned and criticised. Instead of moaning about why not go and try invent something better yourselves?

[WolvenSpectre]

Never been done before my assets... look up the skycar, the aerocar, etc.

[loodog555]

Yeah, street legal my ass. It's not like you get stuck in traffic in New York you can just fly off with this thing. There's no way it's safe enough for anything useful.

[Tideh]

What amazes me is we've all seen this before but instead of just something to sit on with a fan attached to your back its got wheels with fan attached to it rather than your back. Hardly genius of ideas but must still be fun.

[n0fx42o]

lol..funny...they're flying to Timbuktu. While your there, do us all a favor & take a drowning in the Strawberry river & tell sasquatch to quit being a bitch. lol

[n0fx42o]

This is fucking retarded. This is a modified golf cart with a damn parachute. Flying car my ass. Show me a flying DeLorean and I'll be impressed, otherwise take your goofy British ass and sip some tea.

[Suran329]

Road legal... but is it "air legal" as well? o.0

[dawnie1968]

Is that a RAGE buggie made in Bedfordhire? I have driven one of them, they're brilliant.

[BBQPeanut]

douchebag

[jetcat4445t]

lol your calling him a douchbag with a name like BBQpeanut lol

[BBQPeanut]

Have you not eaten a BBQ Peanut?

[jetcat4445t]

lol no i haven't but it sound good !

[dillydean]

well its not really a car, its a buggy with a fat kite lol

[dhodz77]

well it fly because of the parachute attached to it..i think they should improve that invention.just like airplane.

[Chick6517]

this was long.. haha im not gonna lie i almost decided not to finish it but then there were certain things that lkept me entertained and over all it was a good video nice job guys!

[JohnMcKenna]

The driver/pilot is a tv natural, and we will certainly see more of him. Mr 'I' should say 'we' more, because it shows...

[shuhunter]

DanG! that's unbelievable!

[tswjxeem]

What so unbelievable to you. people actually use different "vihicles" with glider before.

[v973dbl]

They have actually stated that this is the first ROAD LEGAL flying car.

I wish them all the best.

[MCD77]

It is a bit egotistical to make the statment " this is the first real aircar" there have been plenty of novel flying car designs. I think that has got a lot of flight enthusiasts goat. Bit of humility boys.....

[tim74660]

You wont get any of that from Mr Laughton. (The chap w the short hair).

Known him a while...

[PLISKEN12]

the true good value of this is that u dont abruptly come hurtling to the ground if the engine fails as u are attached to a parachute. the moller car, if the engine fails good bye to you !!!!

[tswjxeem]

Thn again, if the chute like cut, your doom. not as if the engine is the "pushing" behind the flight.

[peterfarrow]

This isn't the first flying car the Mollers Skycar predates this.

[PLISKEN12]

this makes more sense than that stupid moller car.

[peterfarrow]

Maybe, but at least the Moller skycar doesn't have to have some bloke running behind to help inflate the sail and the sky car can actually steer. Funniest comment is about a minute in when he says "no one has ever made a flycar that works", I wouldn't really call this working, in the same why I would really call powerkite jumping the worlds first flying person...

[cominotti]

Fail car and fail video.

[thewess26]

WOW! dude take your meds before you hurt yourself.

[Mrmoc7]

-:)

[Gyro911]

Do europeans always do a half ass job? this is by no means a flying car. It contains a parashute to lift off the ground 10 feet. What a joke..

[thewess26]

you know, usually if your going to hate on someones idea your supposed to have one that works better. or some insight to improve. otherwise your just full of piss and hot air.

(im sure if it was your idea it wouldnt suck right?) !!!DUMBASS!!!

[btpants]

you cant even spell

[Gyro911]

Are you an english teacher? if so go fuck yourself.. Spell that bitch

[SpringShowwer]

That is so cool. I wonder if I can hook that parasailing thing up to my car to hop over people who rubberneck traffic.

[urnzwayzmoove]

Can't wait to see the flight!

[ralucavoin]

uggghhh boring. Very poor camera man, can't hold the thing still....whats he doing with the other hand?

[eddiesteele]

How about:

A barman + a prop + a chute = a flying barman!

[tswjxeem]

How about:

A bike + a prop + a chute = a flying bike!

[eddiesteele]

How about:

A pogo stick + a prop + a chute = a flying pogo stick!

[tswjxeem]

How about:

A canoe + a prop + a chute = a flying canoe!

[tswjxeem]

This is still a recreational purpose invention that very few wants. Everyone is trying to INVENT the new all purpose automobile-airplane-boat-etc. This is not it. A parachute + go kart + propeller = a flying car?

[tswjxeem]

I still agree with Kyleprokup, IT'S A GLIDER! WoW, I can see it now, "Year 2067, airo-traffic jam in mid town during rush hr, millions of "parajet skycar" jammed up everywhere about 100 to 200 feet above the city." Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Can u all c what I c!

[Taurusaud]

this is incredible I want one!!!

[KyleProkup]

Guys, its a go kart with a paraglider engine and prop glued on the back along with a paraglider canopy tieed to the top. Long story short... ITS A PARAGLIDER.

[Acibeb]

how smart to simplify the flying-car model like this! althoug it doesn't seem the parachute can be deployed easily, during a ride?

[gytisbl]

i want one :D. cool idea. but how are they going to steer in the air and not hit a mountain ore something?

[uuuu9999]

Like a hang-glider, pulling on the left or right support cables deforms the wing and it turns.

[tswjxeem]

but in paraglider, the parachute is lighter then the person. Here the "car"s a ton!

[tim74660]

Probably a tandem canopy or specially made.

i wonder what the fuel weighs and whether the performance varies to any great extent full or empty?.

[HaichDog]

Best invention ever!. Get one for me please! :D:D

[josteinosscar]

Whera can I buy one?????!!!! :D

[paraglide01]

wauw that is a heavy ppg, I think this flies without enginepower like a brick. LOL..

[uuuu9999]

Pause at 10 seconds (amongst other places). Notice the 2 meter propeller.

[musematte2k]

tomorrow
