Two-seater German-made multicopter flying machine on its way
- dsr_ 15y agoWhy we don't have jetpacks and flying cars: A: We do. A helicopter is a flying car, built safe enough for commercial use by a trained pilot. Anything that incorporates enough safeguards to be reasonably useful will be a lot like a helicopter. B: Humans are bad enough at driving on the ground, in 2 dimensions of space. Add a velocity assist from gravity, and the danger factor goes way up. In other words, humans can't generally be trusted with these technologies. We need robopilots.
