Check out the latest design and the new website at www.jetsonaero.com We have addressed many issues, some of you mentioned in the comments and improved on safety a lot. And finally, now you can pre-order your very own Jetson ONE personal electric aerial vehicle.
Dude, it looks sick, awesome job! A little out of my pocket but still, so cool! Good job! I cant imagine youre gonna have any trouble selling that amazing consumer version youve created!
PROPS (excuse the pun) to you my man for having the balls to build and fly that thing. It’s incredible to think how far this technology has come, from small hobby quads like the DJI Flame wheel 450 etc, to something that can lift a person using just 8 large motors, talk about DIY! It’s like the early days of aviation when everyone was having a go at building some crazy aircraft contraption. 👏👏
@Buck ey People with these kind of resources would have no need for illegal immigration - if indeed they decided to move to a country implementing the "Green New Deal" and socialism like the country they would be leaving!
Wtf are you talking about? Multirotor aircraft have been in existence withought complex electronics for DECADES before spoiled consumers got the idea of "oh look, now all of a sudden im interesting in things that fly". Lol. Me personally, i built my first quadcopter out of 100% mechanical gyros back in 2002. Sure, it wasnt tiny, but it worked and could hoist over 200lbs easily and was very stable and agile. It also cost less than 2.5k at that time. Get rekt kiddz. Also i sucked in school big time. I fear what people will allow in the near future :(
👏👏👏👏👏 Наконец то я увидел реальный прототип. Остается ждать когда графеновые аккумуляторы начнут производить в промышленных масштабах. Всем любителям электротранспорта: Дерзайте, творите, двигайте прогресс ! Автору проекта респект и уважение !!!
@@carloscovarrubias6319 Sorry it's an untranslatable Russian dialect. Sorry please briefly translate some questioned the reliability of this aircraft. In case of engine failure, injuries are possible. Watch our channels and be our friends.
if a rotor blade report is very likely that a leg can also be cut off and this probability is very high because the rotor blades are completely unprotected and are mounted very low, he would have to make an emergency landing in high undergrowth he puts himself in double danger, or the famous bird comes into a rotor blade and if a small piece breaks out of a rotor blade, an imbalance occurs which can lead to a rotor blade tearing off. Since the flying object is implemented ingeniously, but there is no security concept, very youthful!
man, I really want to build one now hahaha. just need to save some money. and finally great to see someone not just hovering around at turtle speed but flying flying around :D
@@RP4UXO Even people who can afford it want to know the costs. A wealthy person does not stay wealthy by careless spending. Being able to afford a Tesla has jack shit to do with anything. Having a Tesla does not make you rich, nor does it make you better than anyone else, but being a shallow person would make you think that way..
I think that's the most stable flight controller I've yet seen on a manned drone. Put a cage around each pair of motors and your prototypes in business my friend. Nice work!
I would debate the safety aspect even in the larval stage, what other aircraft offers 8 X redundant engine arrangements? The loss of an motor should be able to be compensated for easily I would think.
it is why we don't have vehicles like that one, we are still use gasoline, oil, roads etc - because of big companies... we are still destroing this world... with this great technology we would have our world green again.
Yeah yes you dont need roads...you are correct! but implementing rules and law should be THE PREMISES....REMEMBER ONLY WRIGHT BROTHERS HAVE NO LAWS IN AVIATION,
I see a few safety concerns, but my Chief concern is not having a Safety Cage around the wooden propeller spinning at very high R.P.Ms, with a heavy load and fluctuating R.P.Ms, as well as your body being in the "line of fire". If you engineered and built that, then you're smart enough to know that if that Prop breaks, it'll have as much Velocity and Energy as a Modern Bullet. Basically, there's enough to take off a few digits, a toe or puncture a lung like a crossbow. I hope you install a Catch Cage you protect yourself and bystanders. Remember, almost all Safety Rules are written in blood. By that I mean, normally the rule exists because people either got seriously hurt or died.
@@donvito204 I first heard a similar saying about 10 yrs ago on a nuclear power plant jobsite. Over the year's I've added a truthful dark twist about being paid in blood.. I think a lot of guys would want one of them stickers.

People die from RC helicopters every now and then. This is clearly lethal with just a little bit of bad luck.
@@jimlepeu577 Peter Stripol did it too, as well as Grant Imahara on The White Rabbit Project, but this one is by far the best. The Colinfurze death trap makes this look like a finished product in comparison, it wasn't really even controlled flight.
Best PAV I’ve seen until now; great job guys. The design is promising and if the best technical choices are done I think you could set a world speed record ;)
Good job! I'm inspired to make my own. I'm going on a diet and may get my bones replaced with light weight carbon fiber for longer flight times. Thanks!
Well... congrats for being the only ones to go from proof of concept to actual sales and production while posting the proof of concept and thus showing that you actually did it. You guys finally did it. Personal VTOLs are finally available for purchase. Thank you for your hard work and dedication.
My point was that the pallets were close to his body. If you are speaking of a holicopter then a holicopter has its pallets above not by your feet. For a safety reasons. Overall good video
In my opinion, a "flying car" doesn't have to go very high or run very fast. It doesn't have to behave like a plane. So, it will still be safe to ride. And yours is very close to that. And it's electric too. A very great achievement. Congratulations!!!
The only problem I have with it is the ridiculously short flight time. They need a better power supply that can keep you in the air for a minimum of an hour. Three hours would be better, at a ground speed of 70mph. That would make it ideal for my purposes.
@@jamesgephart4560 so in a "normal aircraft" a slight bump during landing means getting your foot cut off? Obviously this is a prototype and the pilot is fully aware of the risks, but that looks pretty dangerous.
@ryan lemons I would think one would start at ground level and work upwards from there. But of course, a person of your extreme intellectual capacity already would have known that, right...
Wouldn't see why at the least he couldn't fly inverted with props also underneath!🤔 Of course I wouldn't want to be the one too try that! i.e...I'm not an advocate for kissing my butt goodbye!
Besides my obvious safety concerned I absolutely love your project. I think it's bold, clever and maybe one of a kind right now. Would be great to show off at a local football game or local hobby clubs. BUT PLEASE invest in a safety catch cages. And don't forget, an once of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
FANTASTIC!!!! Honestly, this is the way it should go. Green solution for our overcrowded world. Just jump in and fly. Amazing. The only problem flight time but who knows, maybe soon we will have a better batteries .... Best of luck!
When do we see another video, this is one of the very best Manned Multirotors out there, extremely stable, and the Pilot not afraid to fly it, C'mon we need to see some more of this !
@@Jetsonaero It sounds like you would rather make something work properly than to just put it out there half finished, that's great rather take more time to perfect it than simply just put it out there i agree, in turn we can expect something that wowed us just like your current machine. You clearly nailed the flight algorithm/handling with the current flyer. That might be a combination of flight controller tweaking/algorithm,frame dimensions and components use as well as an optimized cog, however only you seemed to have perfected it so far compared to all the others as it flies so wonderfully stable. Thanks for the update, will keep monitoring. The only other Multi that flies so stable is the heroflyer, but that is something rather different than a True manned multicopter. the kyxz, volo and ehang comes close but looking at your flights, i would have to say without seeing theirs flying more extensively, that yours even beats them according to what i see in your videos.
@@MrRoonkie thank you for the kind words! I did put a lot of time into testing, balancing and fine tuning indeed. I realize adding necessary safety features is a priority and can't be rushed. Imagine letting some of your family members to fly it, this helps to visualise importance of safety even more.
Too right..never let fear and good judgement hold you back....can you imagine the kind of idiot you see in a car airborne....mortician is going to be a busy profession.....
@@stephenvince9994 lol yeah but it's an interesting position we now find ourselves in.. That anyone can go order these things watch a youtube video and build this sort of thing..
£250 per motor x8 = 2k £265 per esc= £2120 battery £1500 controller say £500 ally frame around £300 call it £6.5k to build one yourself and about 2 months to put it together and trim it I would 100% put the props in a shroud believe me if you get hit by one of those props they will amputate no problem let me guess the motors your using are the CA120 150kv and your esc are Fatboy V2 300A ESC
Someday, let's say 40 years there will be a Formula 1 class type of these things, and World Cups with these kinda machines. Like Nascar with different altitude levels, or somthing like that.
@@Jetsonaero wow I was kinda thinking you would say that. A very brave soul you are. One day while at work on my lunch break I decided to finally try some freestyle with my 250 size quadcopter. It has a f4 betaflight controller in it. That flight was successful after a few tries. Then I had to replace a few props 😏😉
Very amazing! I think you‘re on such a high level with your vehicle that it would be worth it searching for several people that join your project and help you improve it even more alongside building a company so that you get sponsors and so on 👍🏼 I also wouldn‘t rush the project since it will take some years for such vehicles to get a permission around the globe so you can make it better and better until that point of time 😄
@@Justwantahover solar collection embedded in a lightweight fiberglass shell would be a great upgrade. not sure how much flight time he is currently getting but i bet if he checked out elon musks new battery he could at least double the flight time and being able to recharge it without having to hook it up... also a couple of alternators could help maintain the batteries as the motors are turning like on a car engine...
oh and he could even add a bicycle crank that he could use to recharge it in a seated position.... wouldnt add that much weight if he used some already made lightweight bmx parts
Sir i have also started a project like this so can you please take the pain to tell me which motors and fc board did you used☺🙏i am asking this from you cuz i found your project to be reliable and the best
He obviously wants to try to develop and market this, then get paid, so why would you expect he should give away his product specs on YT? Stupid request. (Let alone any legalities if you killed yourself or someone else acting on such information).
Awesome 👏🏻! I’ve noticed when people build these things they have a high centre of gravity. Would it not be more stable and more efficient to have the rotors higher and the load lower? I’m no aeronautical engineer and I’ve never attempted such an amazing feat so I’m not criticising, just asking
Yes it would be more stable and efficient, That was my main concern watching this, so yes, your intuition is correct, the center of gravity is too high.
A safety cage with suspension can be built further. A system that will absorb energy in crashes below 10 meters. It's not impossible. But more professional production may be required
It won't matter, this is how quadcopters are actually going to start killing people. Mark my words. When this malfunctions there is no autorotation and there is no gliding. A recovery chute and altitude are the only way to survive a malfunction. The only way. Death machines in the making right here.
@@shelbyseelbach9568 This is a proto type. He is asking for help($$$$) to take it to the next level. The Write bros. didn't have any "satiety" shields around them. In the future they will and prob. also have a self propelling parachute on the "roof" that will keep it from crashing. If he could get a ...million...views and everyone gave ...something ....he prob would be able to start "mass" production.
@@tedfranklin511 oh you mean just give this guy money. That used to be called investing, and wad done for the chance of a return on the money. He's either a business or a charity, hard to be both. A properly deployed ballistic recovery chute and altitude are the only thing that might save your life in this kind of vehicle in the event of malfunction. The chute alone is worthless without proper altitude, speed, and attitude. No gliding, no autoration. Deathtrap. This how quadcopters will end up killing people, mark my word.
This is the first full scale RC multicopter that I've seen where you can actually get on it and fly it using a futaba or whatever the name brand radio transmitter. That's pretty cool.
Nice video. The design and engineering that went into your EVTOL is great. Countless hours of development and testing will pay off for this concept. Personally, I would enclose each of the propellers with a "vacuum tunnel" to create a high velocity vortex for increased lift. It would also possibly help quiet the motor sound. Good luck. Live your dreams. Be safe and good fortune, to you.
son 8 motores en aliexpress los venden esos motores valen 1500 euros cada uno y la estructura es de aluminio porque si lo fabricas de fierro es muy pesado y consumira mas energia el aluminio es un metal ligero y las baterias tambien salen bastante caras como tambien tener un soldador TIG para soldar aluminio
@@flippy6438 Gracias por responder :) si estuve buscando y encontré todo en aliexpress es una inversión grande. pero que hay del controlador? cual usaste? gracias y felicitaciones nuevamente!!
на FliteTest`e только вчера появился видос ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6xJ27BtlM0c.html А это оригинал ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kXf03cfm2x4.html Вообще это хрень, а не аппарат! В обслуге охрененный геморрой и в надёжности куча проблем. Так просто поразвлекаться и всё.
@@vladimiraleshin37 странные у вас интересы. В мире много интересного, но как обслуживать геморрой никогда не интересовался. Сходите в больничку, там поинтересуйтесь.
@@SpiritOfChina Так это вы пишите про геморрой! Видимо уже в больничку ходили, вот я и поинтересовался - мало ли!.. Ну а возвращаясь к теме "хрень, а не аппарат", всё-таки хотелось бы узнать, почему он хрень? Небольшая длительность полёта? Это, пожалуй, единственный большой недостаток. С вертолётом проблем гораздо больше и в техобслуживании, и в эксплуатации!..
@@vladimiraleshin37 но докапались то до Г. вы, видать беспокоит :) Сравнивая это с одноместным вертолётом: вертолёт проигрывает только в сложности управления и, как следствие из этого, в безопасности. в остальном выигрывает. Главный минус квадрика - работающие почти постоянно на максимуме движки! Это большой износ подшипников, лопастей. Хотите долговечные - платите! Цена будет не маленькой. А как их проверять на износ?! Единственное применение этого аппарата будет развлечение и соревнования. Типо этих ru-vid.comvideos
So a reasonably low budget project flew a solid year before a 50 million dollar budget and a japanese engineering company could make their version float for three minutes ? How is this possible?
Because one of them wasted the money one didn't it's simple batterys motors not that hard to do actually infact anyone can basically build anything with very little education the thing is if we all built our own cars planes and homes who would make all the money for the rich guys no one so they purposely make the education system terrible to keep us from advancing in education and technology
Stephen Gardipee Good point, neither one has them. Helicopters and planes usually have them placed way higher than the average humans height. Also, they both have specialised places to take off. But what about light carbon fiber or other light materials for he casings? I’m sure that’s possible. All I’m concerned about is keeping people’s head on their shoulders and the occupant in one piece should shit hit the fan during a flight.
