Jetoptera has managed to create a VTOL flying car that uses a bladeless propulsion system and is capable of reaching speeds of Mach 0.8.
, a VTOL flying car that can lift off and land vertically. But if a flying car wasn’t intriguing enough, the Jetoptera 2000 is also designed to reach speeds of Mach 0.8.
Of course, which is why it isn’t surprising that so many companies, including Jetoptera, are looking into ways to make flying cars that can propel passengers across cities quickly, and some have even come close to. But there’s one problem that has plagued most of these projects: the sound of the propeller systems that they utilize to lift off.
That’s where Jetoptera’s VTOL flying car diverts from other options out there a bit. Instead of using propellers, it uses what the company calls a fluidic propulsion system, which is described as “a bladeless fan on steroids.” So, instead of needing loud and heavy propellers to lift the vehicle up, it would just essentially create a powerful push of air that lifts the vehicle off the ground and into the air.
