Might be just me but at a cost of over 90,000 dollars and other costs such as resource and environmental and recharging costs and to get only 20 minutes of flight time.
And so I ask ... for what purpose ?
Innovation is great but make it worth while and this is far from that :eek:

It would be a blast flying this thing sure, but I have flown other one seater machines and at a far less cost all around and with a gas engine and a prop with a parachute which acts as a sail which gives the craft flight ... and of course also acts as a parachute :)
That was 20 years ago, or longer.
So to create a machine as this 92 thousand dollar 20 minute, resource killer, flying contraption seems to me is not forward progress :eek:

Swedish company Jetson has been working on a way to give people the experience of flying like a drone with the Jetson One electric single-seater aircraft. Jetson One is powered by a high discharge lithium-ion battery and eight electric motors. The electric aircraft can reach speeds of over 60 mph with a flight time of 20 minutes. The fastest way to fully charge the Jetson One is by using a 220V outlet; it takes only an hour to charge. Jetson One weighs just 190 pounds, with a recommended max weight of 210 pounds for the pilot. The Jetson One is equipped with lidar sensors, terrain tracking, obstacle avoidance, a ballistic parachute, hands-free hover, and more. Jetson One will cost $92,000, requiring a $22,000 down payment and the remaining $70,000 once it is ready to be delivered. That’s all before tax and destination charges. Would you strap yourself into the Jetson One and go for a spin?
