- jacquesm 17y agothe Moller skycar is either the longest running investor scam in history or something brilliant ahead of its time, I still can't decide which after following them for several years. See here for some more info on the fraud claims: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moller_Skycar_M400 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moller_Skycar_M400
- onreact-com 17y agoHey, they were the pioneers and they wanted to build a real flaying car not just a plane with foldable wings. It's almost done. It's already flying in contrast to the Jetpod that plummets. That's why it took so long.
- jacquesm 17y agoThe jetpod was actually flying, the skycar has never done anything other then 'tethered' flight, which means as much as flying at the end of a chunk of chain in case something goes wrong. This video has been used to claim that the skycar is nearly operational: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElS9BKSsezw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElS9BKSsezw But in fact there is a large crane in the background that the skycar is tethered to. The jetpod, in contrast went up to about 500-700 feet, then crashed according to reports. So, it was actually flying and unfortunately suffered an engine issue in the left hand side engine. The SkyCar has been 'almost done' for as long as I can remember.
- msie 17y agoEvery couple of years the Moller skycar appears on the news as if it was some new advancement in car technology and we seem so much closer to flying cars. I laugh whenever I see it.
