don't know if you ou will manage lift with 160kw will depend on overall weight, you also have to factor the weight of the propeller and rotating mechanism and covers so 10 to 15 kg is not exaggerated.

For electrical VTOL the Joby is probably the best bet, one big question mark is, the 16 motors how much will weight even at a very low weight of 15kg each you get 240kg/52lb in motors a similar complete two person glider weights around

the cost it's also another big barrier I don't see it hitting the market at less than $250k. As a proxy you have Icon A5 it was target at a price point of $130k in 2008 currently it's priced around $240k and only a handful ha

to do a small combustion engine VTOL vehicle its even harder I have only seen it work with several two stroke engines. Another optin is turbine like the AirMule, but will be hard to use it for civilian operations the hourly cost is brutal a

with current battery technology this is controlled but with new tech chemistry this could become a problem.

off course it will be possible when batteries tripple the density without increasing weight. You will get a 25 minute around 30 miles ride with 20 minute reserve

as a sidenote contrary to the rest of the world there is no regulation in the USA for a electrical LSA Ligh Sport Aircraft because it can only be powered by internal combustion engine the FAA is taking more than a decade to add two words to

similiar glider designs to Joby S2 get 1h to 1h30 flight time with current battery density, it all depends how much energy is spent doing the vertical takeoff and landing.

I have been working on a flying car project for years and can guarantee you that one/two seat Electrical VTOL is at least 30 years away, battery density must triple and then you have regulations. Current solutions can be airborne at ma
