I think the third one is the only practical and best one for the general public

Don't hold your breath. We have been waiting more than 60 years for this concept.

I saw the Bell jet pack fly over the Unisphere at the 1964 Worlds Fair. They told us we'd all have one by 1976. I'm still waiting for mine.

Very nice vid

In the future, people will see this kind of video the same way we seeing that helicopters evolution video. Can't wait

As long as you have a pilots license and pass the exams you can have one, it would be fabulous to fly.

Modern day Oban star racers....lol....awesome.

The Ethal Airship is actually like an house ship😂

Super cool

As regards the Aether airship ..BRAVO.....and one must applaud this.... conceptually and chromatically ......brilliant..... set of interiors and their dramatic severance from the Earth ...one might imagine being handed a prestine set of user take home lounge runners...... (yellow black and or white )... to celebrate this fact.

Much like the 60's saw the 2000's thefuture will see this. "Maybe in another hundred years..."

I'm glad to hear we're finally getting flying cars

By way of reminding everyone of historical developments in aviation : the 1930's was a golden age in terms of aviation development. Some forgotten facts from that era was that small aircraft know as " flying fleas " were so successful that the UK government had to refuse to permit their use, since traffic control would have been impossible, with the sky potentially becoming as congested as roads. The other noteworthy plane was the German STOL Fieseler " Storch " a high wing monoplane which could fly at speeds as low as about 50 Km/hr. Under certain wind conditions they would appear to be flying backwards relative to the ground. BTW imho Lighter Than Air vessels are everyone's secret love, and we all want them to succeed. The tough fact is that in anything like a fresh breeze that can become very difficult to control. Rainstorms also are highly problematic. Historically they have not had a happy history.

Forget airships. They are highly inefficient. Also, history shows that when a new technology to do the same thing comes online, only one version succeeds, and the rest die out. Also, the time required to implement this technology is always underestimated. I saw videos JUST LIKE THIS 30 years ago. Don't hold your breath.

3:10 #18 I would love to have one of those. That's the best one on the list.

Toutes ces batteries énormes à changer tous les deux ans, ça fait énormément de terres rares. Bonjour la pollution !!!

Sky rage, oh I can’t wait

We hope that someday aircraft as well car even motorbike will use anti gravity engines using magnetic power. In the future these engines can improve to use by space aircraft. Maybe there are more ideas for kind of future engines to help us transport from one place to another

Yea know we will all have to worry about drunk flying

This is like the early concept of the airplane before we got them today but now we already achieved a supersonic airplanes. I'm sure in the near future we're sure gonna fly with futuristic flying cars.

Now this is what I think the new generation is so different from us who was born in 1965 because thay have no patience whatever so God help us all the future is not that great fact

LAZARETH LMV 496, i would buy

TF-X is the best one I see here

The problem is still with Efficiency. Flying things uses more power than rolling them on the ground. Also the aspects of accidents makes it even more dangerous. We have roads but sometimes we still have accidents where cars run into houses and buildings now imagine of every car was flying.

Turning loose today’s car drivers into the air? Ha ha ok 😆

I prefer a six engine design 4 for stability and 2 dedicated to forward propulsion

The best reason I've read on why they will never work as urban transport is wind. Imagine the streets filled with random helicopter propwash. Just can't work, too much wind.

... but what happens when the DeLorean gets to 88 mph?

Ohhhh Goodie

I bet the person who invited the rc drone is insanely rich by now. Cause that person's toy has got to be the base of these designs.

You forgot all about the Jetson. Single person flying drone like. Reaches 45 mph and is easy to nav.

I like the four wheel motorcycle that can also fly

#Super #Awesome

Barnum & Bailey.

flying yacht!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great now we have to watch out for drunk drivers on the ground roads but them flying drunk, not to mention Sunday drivers, and the idiot drivers

They all look like big drones to me.

Try creating technology's that are going to help the planet not make it worse

Flying vehicles for the general public will NEVER be a reality. The general public is TOO LAZY to perform the routine maintenance necessary to keep these airworthy.

Faster than a plane... But IT IS a plane!

I want a flying Deluxo just like in GTA IRL

I love the fiction aspect of so many things these days.. I'm seeing it all the times these days and it even filtering into normal day talking... We can all dream up ideas, but there only ideas until they are actually built.

Wow ufo s

that small Motor not keep in air 100kg ©

T.F.X, is the best so far, can it seat at least (4) ? No bland spot when driving on the road ?

I have loved the idea of flying cars my whole life but honestly people, just observe the drivers around you and imagine these idiots in the air above you.

Can't wait to see the first collision ,whether it's a rear end or head on .just how is traffic control going to handle any of this?

sick

"2021 means it's that much closer to the future". ^Someone^ doesn't understand how time works.

'that much CLOSER'??? According to Popular Mechanics, talking heads, and most movies in the '40's, '50's, '60's and '70's we were IN the future 22 years ago..........where is it??? And jet-packs have been around since Commando Cody......where's mine???

Wow I'm early! Not first! Lol!

I don't understand the metric system. Is 2 kilometers the same as 2 mph

Check out Jetson One... 😁

Designers need to consider the likely scenario of a prop blade flying off, in terms of safety design; most of those aircraft will decapitate the pilot - also note when ejecting - a rear prop will chew you up pretty quick. Also see the "Entothopter".

Flying vehicles have existed for a while now. They're called airplanes and helicopters If you mean flying automobile cars and trucks.... Well we are not ready for regular cars what make you think we can handle airborne cars?

You want to give idiot car drivers another dimension to create havoc? I think I will live and travel underground.

Yuh miss'd a few, why? Like Transcend Air's Vy 400R and the Speeder by Jetpack Aviation.

Looks like something from the Jetsons

These flying vehicles are all in the same. Nothing is going to "break through" until we either: 1) discover a new type of propulsion (antigravity anyone? Star Wars landspeeder Yes please!,) 2) Invent a more energy dense battery. Even the best lithium batteries are too heavy for their energy density to be viable for air travel. Thats why we're seeing all these wonky redesigns of flying vehicles. They're all trying to find that optimal balance between number of fan blades for lift vs. endurance for flight time. Sure they could strap on 100 more pounds of batteries but then it will be too heavy to take off. See why lithium is not the answer? Its close..so close that the very next progression in battery tech (probably solid state lithium batteries) will bridge electric power with flight.

The Arab had invented the Flying Carpet more than a thousand years ago.🤔🤔🤔🤭🤭🤪😂🤣

20 Most Unusual Flying Vehicles That Will Never Change The World, because they're just umm.. blue sky ideas that only exist in a CGI Virtual reality

WHERE ARE ALL THE FLYING CARS YOU SAY, YOU MADE IT SOUND LIKE YOU WERE GOING TO SHOW US SOMETHING ELSE BESIDES CARTOONS❕

Careful what you invest in

odd in a time when they dont want us to own any personal vehicles, that ppl actually think they could own one of these. its a deceptive dynamic thats keeps the funding coming.

3:14 Brought us the what when??? 2012?! Nope i checked all the dealerships in my state. NO ONE was selling it. In fact NONE of them ever heard of it. So who exactly did they bring their flying car to except for the intangible world of the internet.

Wow, I am really impressed about these particular flying vehicles.

I'm getting to old for this shit. I grew up even a little before the Jetsons & one of my favorite short stories was about being driving into the city for work in a self driving car while I got an extra hour of sleep in the back with the windows auto tinted black. I am old enough to know & understand why it is never going to be just that simple. We have just gotten that much better at BSing our dreams & Ideas. But - Dream on. Maybe 2121

These machines need to have a flight endurance measured in hours not minutes if they are going to be practical. The current generation of machines are a good start but that’s all.

should be fun when your propellors break off

Hey us

Delorean!? Are you sure you want to use that name?

"Flying for fun isn't green. " Can I still jump off a bridge?

Most of these are still prototypes, some are still concept. It's unlikely we will see any of these in service much before 2024.

Im Drivin Dirty

Nice tech.- the centipede threat was stupid

Problem with flying cars persists: They shitty cars and airplanes both! (Might change when we invent anti gravity though..)

All this sounds really great. However... we've been thru this before, back in the 50s. They had real working prototypes of flying cars, and some companies even sold them. Of course, we've got much better tech today. But we face one problem that's exactly the same: there's no way in hell that we'll be zipping around like the Jetsons without fully autonomous vehicles. People just can't navigate in 3D space in some free-for-all. Otherwise, there would most likely be at least as many crashes and collisions as there are vehicles in the air! And no one's going to get stuck in traffic and then just fly away. Nope. tavi.

LOL.....we have enough trouble with motorised skateboards and bicycles on the public roads....... if you removed all of the lane markings on roads that defined traffic lanes you would have the same effect for an urban flying vehicle...........we have strict flying protocol for conventional aircraft, and I can't see it happening any differently for these type of private flying machines any time this century.

Si en el piso chocan a cada rato en el aire ya me imagino. Mejor no

How abot writing some of this vehicle into an James Bond or similar action movie.?

We was supposed to have this already

The DIELECTRIC VORTEX Technology by Ronald Frederick Sykes just G it. Propellers are so passe

thousands of cars in the air at the same time at rush hour with no lanes follow.. What could go wrong?

tfx is the one to back

everything's a freakin drone.. not all bad but...

If l were gonna mess with any of these it would be the TFX, my major concern would be the ability of these vehicles to negotiate bad weather in this age of climate change things like turbulence and lighting strikes, things that commercial aircraft have to deal with on a regular basis, govt will have to rear it's ugly head and regulate this new industry by issuing weather alerts and grounding of these veh's when public safety becomes an issue, then as many commenters have stated what about drunk flyers and idiot flyers, what kind of training would owners of these veh's have to go through to be certified ? Other than these concerns the future of flying vehicles can be a great step forward in transportation, maybe the Earth will resemble the planet Coruscant from the star wars universe who knows ?

all it takes is one EMP...

If it is not practical, it will never get past the testing phase, the limits in physical properties of air, and energy density are competing with viability all over again. The limits are known already, and they are lacking what is practical, affordable, profitable, and therefore unsustainable.

But what kind of fuel does these vehicles use

With all the problems already listed, what about the noise? Imagine these flying over your house every few minutes.

And how many miles per gallon do you get

What evreryone ignores. These are flying machines - aircrafts! And they will require a pilots license. Exceptions may be full autonomus machines. Im sorry to break the high hopes, but this will not happen to the general public...

New concept of air traffic control will be inevitable.

That will never fly in the United States. You can't even fly a drone anymore period without getting special paperwork period so that'll be a skip in the United States

Way cheaper to just use a helicopter and just put the automatic systems that will help you fly it . All this will be is a rare site

They are nice-looking, but - they all are just a combination of planes and helicopters.... Not any new ideas?

which one wil I get I will take the flying pig thanks , that's the only one i can afford

I'm guessing flying cars would have to be largely automated and an AI would have to handle flight paths or we'd have a whole bunch of collisions and stressed out air traffic controllers. Also, assuming battery storage and recharge rate is a long way off if everyone wants electric motors.

Germany must not have any birds
