Does it even exist now? The physical dynamics of that stunt looked like the whole thing was an animation, especially the low-speed vertical climb. (I'm picturing animators laughing up their sleeves. "I can't believe Elon thought that was good! heh heh")

Good thing the roadster is simply there to fleece some rubes and will never actually exist.

Worth noting there's been a MUCH more viable flying car in perpetual development for the past fifty-odd years. The Moller Skycar. Note that despite being pretty much an ongoing scam for investment cash, it's closer to real flight than the Muskmobile ever will be. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moller_...

If the engine fails in a helicopter, you can trade altitude for rotational energy in those big rotors, auto gyro to land. These quadcopters for people freak me out. I don’t think they’ll exchange altitude for energy nearly as well. They’re gonna drop like rocks if some major system fails.
