Russia has created the transport of the future - a motorcycle soaring above the ground
Russian concern "Kalashnikov" is testing a flying motorcycle of domestic production.
The first experimental flight took place the other day in the presence of the head of Rostec, Sergey Chemezov. The results of the experiment were considered successful - the vehicle demonstrated all possible maneuvers in the air and successfully landed. The device was controlled by one pilot.
Motorcycle can take off thanks to the screws located around the perimeter. Being connected to the battery, they are able to lift into the air of one person. The pilot can control the direction of “flight” with the help of joysticks mounted under the seat. The management of the manufacturer does not disclose any other secrets.
The presented development is rather an experimental version and will undergo significant changes in the event that a massive, mass production of such aircraft will be planned.
Flying motorcycles could be a very useful and effective innovation in many sectors of the economy. In addition to the military purposes traditional for our country, the vehicles could be used for cargo delivery, for the implementation of surveillance procedures and in many other cases. The question of the distribution of such motorcycles largely depends on the final cost of the product, if it is too high, it is unlikely that the demand for such a novelty will be high.
