not really, "flying" it is not like a plane where you have to go through several hours of flight training. I'm sure it'll be like when cars became a thing, it'll be quick to learn. the only real issue would be air-traffic control, but I'm sure that won't take decades either.
@jonanddy with my very limited knowledge in aerodynamics, wouldn't it be difficult to make flying "cars" that are sufficient enough to run on fuel, let alone electricity, all the while allowing for easy maneuverability in air? I mean accounting for wind, mass, weather, and other unpredictable conditions. Again, I'm not very knowledgeable in this, I'm just thinking out loud, but it just seems it's more complicated than most people think, and costly.

flying cars would be cool, but I imagine they would never be allowed to fly and drive on the road, not unless we get to a point where all the flying is automated. otherwise imagine the amount of accidents that would occur because some guy wanted to fly freely and travelled into the flight path of commercial aircraft. All it takes is one such person to cause several hundred deaths. Even if they were limited by altitude, you would have to worry about someone approaching airports.
Not to mention the amount of training that would be required so every single driver of a flying car could communicate with ATC and the load that would put on ATC towers... probably a need for a whole new system of towers JUST for the cars. It'll never happen.

I love how they detail the exact workings of the propulsion system, instead of simply making assumptions and talking about the car going sideways. Also, production in 2025 for a car without a working prototype is precisely what it takes to succeed. Surely the investors are lining up. A+
Ya, the "exact workings of the propulsion system" is that it goes up and down with 8 propulsion systems, which tells me nothing. Anti-gravity stolen from alien space crafts? Little helicopter blades? At $800,000 I'll take two.
The company's Model A, the vehicle which received FAA approval for test flights, is totally electric and capable of going a couple hundred miles on a full charge. It's a low-speed ground vehicle, topping out at about 25 miles per hour....25MPH...get a bicycle.
Elon was asked, why no flying cars, he had a good perspective. He pointed out the devastating impact of a crash on occupants AS WELL AS anything below. Also the practical rules you'd need in that many dimensions to fly any number of vehicles in an area. It wasn't the technology that presented the issues.
Then use your brain and make them have self driving mode. Wanna avoid criminal taking off? Allow Law enforcement to have a (disable car mode) and your set quite simple in fact
Planes require heavy regular maintenance to make sure everything works and still sometimes has problems mid flight. I honestly don't see this kind of thing being popular. People are going to be too scared once the few start hitting birds or engines crap out mid air as what happens with regular cars. Plus just THINK of the damage this can cause by a deranged ex boyfriend or psychopath. Even easier to kidnap kids. Life isn't a movie.

flying cars would be cool, but I imagine they would never be allowed to fly and drive on the road, not unless we get to a point where all the flying is automated. otherwise imagine the amount of accidents that would occur because some guy wanted to fly freely and travelled into the flight path of commercial aircraft. All it takes is one such person to cause several hundred deaths. Even if they were limited by altitude, you would have to worry about someone approaching airports.
Not to mention the amount of training that would be required so every single driver of a flying car could communicate with ATC and the load that would put on ATC towers... probably a need for a whole new system of towers JUST for the cars. It'll never happen.
pretty sure these things can not go as high as pressured planes lmao
@@discobones there litterally are electric flying drones approved by the faa with no requirments flying at this hieghth ...........the every day driveer isnt going to be able to afforrd one of these lol this more for the average nfl player than it is for us lol therefore there wont be tons owned and probably wont make a ton of stock bc they are so expensive
NFL player?? If that's your idea of who makes money, then it's no wonder you're poor. Ever heard of an engineering degree?
This leap car shouldn't fly in airplane traffic. He said this doesn't go as long as airplanes. This leap car is to avoid traffic
It’s always in two years, and the aliens are hiding in people’s backyards. Imagine what we’re *not* supposed to paying attention to?
amen
Coincidence?
Two more weeks
SOON!
"Where we're going, we don't need roads."
Now when someone sees a UFO they’re gonna be like, nahhh that’s just one of those new flying cars
As a kid, I remember remember reading about this happening in the 21st century in domed cities. George Jetson would be proud.
domed cities? why domed?
This is going to be a nightmare. What’s stopping someone from flying into a building?
The flying police cars.
What's stopping ppl from driving into them now
This leap car shouldn't fly in airplane traffic. He said this car doesn't go as long as airplanes. It's only to avoid traffic
@@patrick1564 burger king.
The CIA as they can only make that happen.
Once these vehicles become affordable for the average consumer and go into mass production, I wonder how they will control the air traffic. Especially with all the commercial, military, and private planes already in the skies.
This will be the first and last time you hear about this car
So much firepower in a single wheel
Waste of resources. There's enough greenhouse gas as it is.
Approved by FAA! IMPRESSIVE FEAT! BRAVO!
imagine trying to get to a desolate place in the wilderness and cars are parking everywhere around you. no where is safe anymore
If this is the guy who is finally gonna be the one to release the flying car then why haven't people been talking about him more before now?
Great engineering . Be a great thing to have . Just a little out of my price range but only by 270,000 dollars .
Buy as much Tesla stock as you can. then will afford many down the road.
@@rickhammond2473 if I had the money to buy allot of Tesla stock . I would just put the money down for one of the flying cars instead .😊
Where do you see great engineering? All I see is a clunky 3d render
@@Nobody-Nowhere I see it as a possibility . Because over time things people said we're not possible have become common place . It is engineering that made things possible . Never thought watching the 1960s Star Trek tv show . That captain Kirk contacting his ship which many years later would be crested called a flip phone . Or asking a computer how far to get to a certain place would take . Would eventually be like features on a cellphone . Asking to see pictures of something and then the images of what was asked comes up . All eventual great engineering . And 3D imaging was great engineering that now is not just a drawing by a pencil . But I do get what you mean . Show me a actual product already made . Not just some 3 D image talking about something that is not even built yet . And some guy writing a comment is talking great engineering on a fantasy not even real .🤔
@@wayne9094this guy gets it.
Police car chases are about to get even wilder.
Not really just wait till they run out of juice n crash
Uhhh..is there any actual footage of this?
I can't wait to get my first FUI (FLYING UNDER THE INFLUENCE)😂
Imagine the battery dying mid air 😂😂😂😂
I just wish we had the technology to have a walkable city
Me too!
I love how they detail the exact workings of the propulsion system, instead of simply making assumptions and talking about the car going sideways. Also, production in 2025 for a car without a working prototype is precisely what it takes to succeed. Surely the investors are lining up. A+
Tell me this is sarcasm
@turanamo it's definitely the most serious thing of all time
Ya, the "exact workings of the propulsion system" is that it goes up and down with 8 propulsion systems, which tells me nothing. Anti-gravity stolen from alien space crafts? Little helicopter blades? At $800,000 I'll take two.
"Millions in Subsidies approved." - Congress
The company's Model A, the vehicle which received FAA approval for test flights, is totally electric and capable of going a couple hundred miles on a full charge. It's a low-speed ground vehicle, topping out at about 25 miles per hour....25MPH...get a bicycle.

Robbing a bank has never been si easy 😂
It’s not exactly the Jetsons car, but it’s a start and way better than any other “flying cars” I’ve seen that have airplane wings that fold up!
This is completely fake. They don't even have a real picture or video of the car. It's all CGI. Wakey wakey.
Elon was asked, why no flying cars, he had a good perspective.
He pointed out the devastating impact of a crash on occupants AS WELL AS anything below. Also the practical rules you'd need in that many dimensions to fly any number of vehicles in an area.
It wasn't the technology that presented the issues.
Elon's "good perspective" is what any human with an IQ of at least *50 can reason LMAO
Then use your brain and make them have self driving mode. Wanna avoid criminal taking off? Allow Law enforcement to have a (disable car mode) and your set quite simple in fact
Exactly, it's not if they could be made but should they be made. 🤷
that's like the 7th first flying car iv seen this week
Planes require heavy regular maintenance to make sure everything works and still sometimes has problems mid flight. I honestly don't see this kind of thing being popular. People are going to be too scared once the few start hitting birds or engines crap out mid air as what happens with regular cars.
Plus just THINK of the damage this can cause by a deranged ex boyfriend or psychopath. Even easier to kidnap kids. Life isn't a movie.
Imagine the data it would collect to avoid collision over time, would give it more time for fine tuning sensors and emergency maneuvering
Imagine car jackers taking one of these! Very frightening possibilities.
"Car bomb" to another level. 😬
"Flying cars are here!!"
Every drug cartel ever: "hold my cocaine "
Fascinating, yet terrifying. Don’t know why but the tragedy of the Submersible pops in mind when seeing this
That's what I posted. Another catastrophic event but in the air
I think I can figure out why...
Hardly anybody can figure out how to drive or even obey the written rules in the drivers manual. I can only imagine the disaster when these start popping up everywhere.
We already had the same concept with our drones and helicopters. But this is a great innovation for a “supercar” if you must say 🤷♂️
This sounds dangerous. This is nothing like my childhood cartoon The Jetsons
Imagine the bad drivers on the road now flying very badly over your house and into your office building 😅! I can imagine certain ppl will lose control and drop!
WHat we need is none propeller propelled vehicles vibrating on from frequencies from energy from all 3 into 6 for direction into powering all from 9.
