The idea that we will slowly move from cars to drones is getting more and more attention and is (maybe) really close to being realized. At the CES 2018, the American company Workhorse will present a novelty on the VTOL market.
Workhorse SureFly it is two-seater a drone that you will be able to control with only one hand. The craft is smaller than a slightly larger SUV, and the frame consists of carbon fiber.
Everything four levers and electric propellers it can fold, so that the vessel takes up as little space as possible. You manage SureFly with navigation stick, which is installed between the two seats.
SureFly flies with assistance 8 electric propellersv, drives it gas engine (just in case, it also has battery), and takes care of additional security ballistic parachute. He will be able to take you to 60-minute journey at maximum speed 112 km/h. The highest vantage point from SureFly will be at 1,200 meters.
The price for SureFly is expected to be around 165,000 euros.
