From the big screen to reality.

Better than vehicles with propellers.


If you follow me you already realized that science fiction is becoming reality, right, do you remember the speeders from Star Wars, the guys created something very similar to a real flying motorcycle without visible propellers capable of reaching up to 200 km/h and its name is Volonaut Airbike, it is different from everything we have seen so far in this segment, no propellers spinning dangerously around.


It uses jet propulsion, which not only eliminates exposed moving parts, but also offers a much more fluid flight experience, with a 360º panoramic view, with a structure made of carbon fiber and 3D printed parts, the vehicle is light, compact and extremely robust and no matter how crazy this flying motorcycle may seem, it even runs at 200 km/h and maintains stability and this happens thanks to its own system controlled by an advanced flight computer.




Control mechanism


The big difference of the Volonaut is in the control, the flight system allows the pilot to land, take off, stay in the air automatically, with simple and intuitive commands, the piloting position was designed to create a kind of fusion between pilot and machine, offering a real sensation of freedom in the air and with the total absence of external propellers.


The level of safety is much higher, especially in urban environments or areas with a lot of traffic, that is, you are not going to slice anyone's head off, but there is still the risk of eating the concrete, asphalt and all types of grass that you find if you fall with it in flight, but don't worry, according to the inventors of this machine, the intelligence behind the Airbike is as daring as its appearance and the on-board computer constantly analyzes the stability, the air pressure and the surrounding conditions, maintaining balance even with strong winds or more abrupt maneuvers.

It's just the closest we've gotten to a real speeder


Designed for a single occupant, the Airbike is not intended to be just a luxury toy, it is the promise of a new style of urban transportation where you can fly over traffic jams and cross landscapes just as happens in Star Wars and you can see in the demonstration one more job that will be extinct, that of a street sweeper, with its appearance inspired by modern sports bikes, the Airbike is only the closest we have come to a real speeder outside the Star Wars universe, there is still a lack of information about the Volonaut, the The company has not revealed all the technical details or prices or launch dates, but one thing is certain: the future of personal air mobility has never been so close and so impressive.


Now tell me, would you have the courage to pilot this superbike from the sky or could it be that it is only for those who were born to be Jedi, he comments, let's exchange ideas about that future that is already knocking on the door.

wow this is amazing, it felt unreal since i do see it in movies, if this is truly coming to existence, then it is a good development, just hope it can go up more than that just in case someone ride it on the road

Yes, a doubt, but everything indicates that it is real, I imagine that it is the same technology as vertical take-off fighter aircraft like the Harrier, but in civilian mode, much more compact and more efficient, this could improve, leaving behind vehicles with blades or drones.

Thanks for being interested.

This looks so real I must actually confess. Quite very real and it is actually something we should really admire so much

Yes, one doubts if it is real, but yes, everything indicates that it is real; I don't think the company is creating false expectations for nothing.

Thanks for being interested
