As an aero engineer, there have been many other attempts, this is the first flying car that really excites me, and appears practical..

what if a couple of canopy lines snap, or canopy gets twisted?.

40mph flying fail!!!

I knew BF3 was missing something

[mechiefslapahobitch]

Well lets see a lift off and landing!! Doesnt work!

[macbeasty]

Great. We've been reading about flying cars and worshipping them for decades and a random indian tribe gets to use it before we do.

Any one else want to jump it off a huge cliff and try to get the chute open fast enough?

As a missionary, travelling to remote places I could take this with me as cargo. then have a vehicle to drive, notice the indians , they live in the jungle, not just off the paved road , this vehicle will take off in no to 15 knots wind and land in such, this vehicle would not be flown higher than 3000 ft or less probably. if a line snaps its ok , if 20 lines snap there is a parachute that will shoot out as a reserve and land the whole thing straight down, driveable unless you land in a tree

Disney police wouldnt let you on the property with it I work there and Florida police would pull it over as soon as they see it ..

right off the first thing I see is how low this flyin car sits. It dosent need to be low for flyin but does for bumpy terrain

Almost there, but at $80,000 for a skeletal metal frame that flies so slow and keeps you exposed to the elements, I'm not convinced of it's practicallity. Seems more like an expensive hobby than a revolutionary vehicle meant for everyday use. And in the video, it looks as though you need a windy day to fill the canopy wing before flight. What if there is no wind that day? I notice the video shows plenty of driving (pointless) and a little flying, but what about an actual take-off?
