The Future of Helicopters

Posted on by Kolbe

We’ve discussed cars, trains, buses and many other forms of transportation getting a rework, and now we’ll talk about the helicopter! SureFly is a personal helicopter that can carry two passengers about seventy miles, and it fits in your garage. It does this by utilizing eight motors to drive the propeller that can fold down to save space when not flying. It also has a battery backup, and is equipped with a parachute in case of emergencies. Testing is targeted to begin this year and the company is shooting for FAA certification in 2019.
