We have been seeing how the companies are trying to fabricate some flying vehicles. One of this is the Hoverbike Scorpion 3, the flying motorbike that has been made by Hoversurf. This vehicle has been in development since 2017 when the brand teases a video of it, but since that moment it has some problems, like an accident, and is still in progress.
It is a drone that has been added motorbike elements. It can only carry one person, and can support a weigh of 150 kilograms. The brand said that the pilot do not need any experience of driving any kind of flying vehicles, the driver can modify the direction and the height easily with the control. Its maximum speed is 100 km/h, and the autonomy is 30 minutes, and then the owner has to charge the battery. For this last two things, it is a vehicle that is in a development process, it still has a lot of things to improve.
The platform is very similar to others that have been used for this flying vehicles, like taxis or drones like the jetpaks. This type of vehicles have been taken more importance in the last years, so it is look like the future is arriving and we are very close to see in our streets vehicles flying, and people using its every day.
The Hoverbike Scorpion 3 can be bought by $70,000, but it is still in development because it has had some problems and some accidents. But is used to by the Dubai police since 2020. The owner maybe cannot use it in the city, because the regulation of this flying vehicles has not arrived to the world yet, so if someone decide to buy one of this flying motorbike, it will not be able to be used on the streets.
