Kek, I just know the next stop is going to be one-use drones that will lift someone over the border for 3km.
No safety regulations or anything, just the cheapest battery with a propellor engine you can hang onto, will be a few hundred dollars.

It will revolutionize the refugee market.

Depends on which border, for the u.s. you don't need it. But if you look at the stuff that is going on in poland/belarus right now. Just pop a few one-use drones and you get everyone across the border in all directions.
Can't shoot them down because 'muh human rights/ poor people just looking for better lives', impossible to physically stop.

"You Can Now Buy A Flying Car That Looks Like A Star Wars Spacecraft

Forget Elon Musk's Tesla Cyberquad ATV because there's a new form of transportation for the offroad enthusiast now available, and it looks like something out of Star Wars.

Sweden's Jetson Aero has begun manufacturing a personal electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft that will zip around the skies at 63 mph.

The Jetson One eVTOL is an octocopter with four arms that produce 88 kW (118 horsepower) at full throttle. The pilot sits in an aluminum/carbon fiber frame and controls the craft via a throttle lever on the left, a joystick on the right, and a pair of pedals, likely controlling yaw.

According to vehicle car website Autoevolution, "the company [Jetson Aero] said that you can easily climb as high as 1,500 meters (4,921 feet) with Jetson One." So far, videos only show the eVTOL moving at high rates of speed at low altitudes.

Someone who weighs roughly 187 pounds can expect 15-20 minutes of flight time before the batteries need a recharge.

New Atlas noted the eVTOL comes 50% built, and presumably, owners will have to assemble the rest. For that reason, the craft will likely fly under "experimental" where pilots don't need a license to fly.

As for price, a $22k deposit will give someone the right to reserve a build slot for 2023. There are only three left. Production in 2022, a total of 12, has already been secured from people worldwide, including a few in California.

Personal eVTOLs appear to be the next big trend in transportation that will revolutionize how people (rich people) travel and commute or spend their leisure time. "

This is actually octacopter. It has double set of propellers and engines on each leg. For redundancy reasons. In case of shingle engine failure it still can continue flight and make emergency landing.

Yay, a hobby drone with a foamie body. Multirotors don't scale up well. A cardboard box can be made into a cheap drone. This thing needs some real windtunnel and forward flight transition tests to be taken seriously. And I'm still waiting for someone to disregard meme batteries and put a generator onboard.

i fucking hate normies and their obsession with the manned drone idea
theres several very important reasons why our helicopters are not drones with seats
>quadcopters are extremely inefficient
>they cannot autorotate at all
>there is quadruple the failure points
if a single motor fails it will do a flip and crash
if the battery, electronics or whatever fail it will drop like a rock the way normies think helicopters do
a parachute will not save you unless you have decent altitude
if these things become mainstream (which im sure they will because normies are fucking retarded) they WILL kill alot of fucking people and will also fucking suck
why not convert a mosquito to electric like this guy did?
https://youtu.be/rNm_v6LRtSM
itl fly longer on a charge, be 100x more fun to fly, and if any motor or the battery fails it can just autorotate
i bet its cheaper too despite the only advantage quadcopters have is being cheap

yeah these things nor delicery drones are happening anywhere near residential areas, i used to have a neighbor with a small racing drone, it was sick but god the noise, even being like 50m away with all my windows closed it was still earpeircing, its not a nice deep noise like a helicopter or plane its like a high pitched screech from those tiny high rpm motors
