Hoverbike

Hoverbike is that design combines a motorcycle with quadcopter technology to lift itself and a driver into the air.
Starting in 2014, Malloy Aeronautics has been developing a hoverbike that has experimented with quadcopter-like lift. In 2015, the company announced collaboration with the United States Defense Department at the Paris Airshow.

The pilot sits on it like a motorcycle, and flies around just like you might expect a hoverbike to do. However, as you can see from even the official videos, it’s still got some way to go before it matches the hoverbikes you might have seen in movies like Star Trek.

Hoversurf is positioning the bike as an “extreme sports instrument,” and to buy one might set you back at least six figures, so I wouldn’t expect to see the bike on your local highway any time soon. However, they are looking at its “transportation potential.”

Hoversurf has developed its own in-house software to control the Scorpion-3 in either automated mode or with full-manual control. That means it also has in-built systems to automatically control and limit the maximum speed and altitude of the aircraft to prevent accidents. It flies a lot better than the version I encountered, that’s for sure.
