You've seen them in science fiction films, but the hoverbike could soon become a commercial reality.
The brainchild of British designer Chris Malloy, "the world's first hoverbike " combines "the freedom of a helicopter with the simplicity of a motorcycle" to offer a whole new way to fly.
The bike is currently available as a 1/3 scale hoverbike drone, which is listed on crowdfunding website Kickstarter as a means of funding the full-size version. The inventors claim the drone will allow users to see and feel exactly what flying the hoverbike would be like.
Featuring a multipurpose platform suitable for transporting a variety of objects, the drone comes with colorful LED lights framing its wheels.
The full-sized hoverbike, currently in the final prototype stages, could be flown manned or unmanned, whilst its smaller version can fly on a pre-determined fight path as well as ‘follow' and ‘loiter.'
The drone versions of the hoverbike are expected to ship this November.
Question for you: Guess the expected price.
(Hint: Between $1000 to $25000).
