It's not flying, it's brief hops that probably will be geofenced not to be operable on any public roads. I struggle to understand when the operator of the vehicle will ever find a way to use it for any end that isn't "gross negligence followed by totaling the car". It's not even clear it can calculate trajectories in real time to be used at the operator's discretion.
Could be seen as a technology demonstrator for interesting military technology. It could offer something akin to turn based warfare where units charge up and make synchronised moves.
Sure, but that's not the messaging around this. The "flying car" narrative is simply incorrect.
i would have been more impressed if they drove it off a cliff and landed it softly
i mean they kind of did, just upside down (half-loop)
In business terms they did the first part and will fail on the second.
