Your Own Transportation Drone ... Jetson One - Official Launch

Drone pilots will no longer be stuck on the ground looking at a screen thinking "what if" soon they can fly free in a Jetson One.
Meet the Jetson(s).

jetson ONE is an ultralight and extremely fun to fly recreational all-electric personal vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft. Test pilot: Tomasz Patan - Founder & CTO at Jetson

Our mission is to make the skies available for everyone with our safe personal electric aerial vehicle.
Are you ready to experience a completely new and exciting way of travel?

with humans regular ability to crash in 2d space not sure the keys to this should be handed to anyone in the general public



those ungaurded blades look like they could take out some smart phone zombies, perhaps not a bad thing then

May I suggest this thread?

Cool. So what's the payload, tow capacity, and distance it can achieve before crash landing? I need one that has a third row and goes at least 500 miles on one charge.

That is totally Banda-s! I can see various platforms that may arise, the 1st races like back in the dirt track auto days…great fun if shipping, raw materials and general dumbassery can find a balance

You are right the way it's set up its not save as a transport vehicle...

The limitation our 2d roads bring could also be the main cause for accidents. if all the space is available for traffic, crossings would be less and appart.

Obviously it would have to be managed very rigidly as there are people below. Free flying would be limited to dedicated areas.
If it is managed high tech you have to book your flight, get assigned an altitude and route, your battery life determines the time you get. All you do is fly faster or slower. With all the space available, I'm pretty sure some algorithm will easily find save passage for everyone.

Some information about safety.

Race car-inspired Spaceframe safety cell design
Hands free hover and emergency functions
Ballistic parachute with rapid deployment time
Can fly safely with the loss of one motor
Triple redundant flight computer
Lidar sensors driven terrain tracking and obstacle avoidance

A complete vehicle is 92 000 USD and is delivered to you as a partially (50%) assembled kit for home completion. It contains everything you need, from the aluminium space frame to motor controllers, propellers and motors. You will also receive detailed build instructions.

Available in 2022 although they are all sold out so book now for 2023.

Looks like fun but what would really be fun is if it had weapons mounted on it.

Depending on how quiet it is would be ideal for Tier1 operations..
