It looks like the TF-X is planned to be an autonomous flying vehicle. The user basically just has to tell it 3 landing areas, then the car handles takeoff and landing and calculates whether it has enough fuel/energy to get there. That said, I think we are decades away from making a system like that work. This thing looks like a seriously complicated machine since it's autonomous, has twin helicopter blades for takeoff/landing, a primary engine for cruise, and can drive on the ground. Even if they get all that to work, the maintenance on it is going to be insane.
