There seems to be no end to the number of companies creating flying machines to try and tempt us into the skies.
The Airwolf can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 3 seconds and go on to reach a top speed of 140 mph - undoubtedly ensuring a thrilling ride in the driver's exposed seat. The craft will have a carbon-fiber chassis, a fully electric powertrain, and four 3-D-printed Electric Ducted Fans, known as tiltrotors.
The Airwolf, a zero-emissions eVTOL, is capable of taking off and landing vertically with precision flight controls and, a major bonus - enough space for a passenger behind the driver. It also has fixed wings for gliding in emergencies. It's expected to be able to fly for 25 exhilarating minutes - with a range of 60 miles.
The Czech team is currently testing a scale prototype at Technology Readiness Level 5 of 9 which, in NASA parlance, means “component validation in the relevant environment.” For the rest of us, says Robb Report, that means the two-seat eVTOL still has years of development ahead, but the company is moving toward a full-scale, working prototype.
