There's only one thing left to do... Make it bigger, and give us our flying car!

Think about what percentage of the drivers that you see you want controlling a vehicle that can fly over you and your loved ones.

Yeah, seems like there was a DARPA program to develop a flying car concept that could roll on secure roads and fly over hazards like IEDs or escape ambushes.
When saw the first photos of it, I wondered if the wheels would rotate 90 degrees to form prop bumpers.

I dream about it. It is a feasible idea considering the propeller size. Additionally coaxial unit can be mounted to double the thrust or decrease the diameter of the wheel.

Nicely done Mr. Mielniczek!

Well designed concept. It is different and thought provoking. Plus, it can actually be used in reality with little change. This concept should encourage more practical designs, soon.

this + more flexible wheels, for better comfort + google self-driving algos and we've got ultimate transportation solution

Amazing concept definitely impressive.

Hi thank you very much for positive comments, It is a pleasure to see people with imagination sharing the same dream in one place!!
If the car would make it to full size, it would look different has more safety features. For example coaxial unit to decrease the size of wheel and have higher static thrust from the same surface area, blade guards, Twin engine etc. endless possibility to make it real.... For good sake no!! no flying in the city is too loud already!!!! just open empty space to jump over the traffic or go for a picnic in the middle of nowhere!! B could also serve as rescue vehicle and get to accident site before anything else!

When I saw the design I thought that the car was going to use the props like an airboat (with wheels), but I suppose that would not have very good performance.
