magine a drone you can sit in and fly. Jetson has made that idea a reality with its powerful personal aircraft, and newly released footage of the flying machine is nothing short of jaw-dropping.
The Jetson ONE, a much-anticipated personal electric vertical takeoff and landing, or eVTOL, aircraft, recently reached a significant milestone with the release of its first production model. Described as a “Formula One racing car for the sky,” the single-seat aircraft is designed for recreational flying, and the latest demo proves just how capable it is.
The 10-minute video by Jetson shows the aircraft flying in an open field, maneuvering around trees, hovering in place, and landing with gentle precision.https://www.youtube.com/embed/7WrOz05mtcs?si=oaa84OZ4EaDQ_hss
Powered by eight electric motors driving eight propellers, the Jetson ONE can reach speeds up to 63 miles per hour and fly for about 20 minutes on a single battery charge.
