BEWARE FLYING
CARS
WHAT ARE FLYING CARS?
Not long ago we could see futuristic science fiction
movies where flying cars were shown, and now
thanks to advances in technology we could see
more of these flying cars. For example, a lot of
prototypes have been made but now there is a
flying car for sale in Spain.
To start, flying cars can fly as their names explain.
Flying cars are a new innovation in the world of
airplanes, that's propellers like a helicopter, and
the propellers can be lifted and deployed. The
models sold in Spain have three wheels and
propellers and it has only one seat, so it is very
small.
FLYING CARS FUNCTION
The function of this invention
is very simple, but before
starting it worth to to
describe the prototype made
in Spain. To start, it’s a
normal car but with three
wheels and a pointed front
end, to have aerodynamics.
Then it has a folding propeller in the car that
works like a helicopter, to rise and move in the
sky. And it is supposed that the design of the car
will be able to have greater speed and minimize
the risks of being able to have an accident, when
the design of the car means the front part of the
car and the three wheels,with space for only one
person in the car, …

DO FLYING CARS REALLY
WORTH IT?
Flying cars have their bad and good things.
Flying cars can fly and that is why they do not
have traffic jams, so that is a good point for the
flying cars. They have lower fuel emissions than
today's cars, so that's a plus too. In addition, it is
autonomous, safe and you can reach high
speeds and that is why you can travel at higher
speeds.
On the other hand
they do not have
much power in their
engines, so it costs
them more to take
flight. They are
small, usually one
square, so not many
people could travel
at the same time.
Although they are
very high value, for
example in Spain it
costs 500,000 euros
one car.
In conclusion, according to the disadvantage and
advantage it is not very profitable to buy a flying
car, because there is only one seat, and it has a
very high price, around 500,000 euros. However
it’s safe and autonomous.It’s not much power
and it is very small.
