@MitchWagner On first look I fought this is a screenshot from a Flintstones episode :-D. No idea why. But on another note just add four arms to the vehicle and four props and we are not so far off of some real drone concepts.

@V\_ Yes, and companies are working on air taxis using drones. I'm skeptical that will ever happen; flying cars seem to always be on the verge of happening, for at least 70 years.

@MitchWagner yep skeptical as well here. It is an excellent idea, but I don't think it is practical. At least not self flown, but using an autopilot then also means we need a good save fail. And that's not easy when in the air.

@V\_ Also, do you want your neighbor's teenagers driving one?
