The first flying car in the world!

According to the report of the British automobile media on March 6, PAL-V Liberty, the first mass-produced commercial flying car under the Dutch PAL-V company, was publicly presented at the Geneva Motor Show 2018. It is reported that the first mass production of flying vehicles in line with the European road and air traffic standards, has now begun to accept reservations through the company website. In addition, the car will be sold for a limited edition of 90, will be officially delivered in 2019.

The PAL-V flying car is divided into Pioneer Edition and Sports Edition. The pre-tax selling price of the Pioneer Edition officially is approximately 431,000 pounds, including flight instruction, personalized service, etc.; the Sports version is priced at approximately 25.4. Million pounds, including flight teaching and other costs, but the personalized service content are different with the Pioneer Edition. The car adopts a twin-engine, three-wheel, two-rotor design. The propellers and tail rotors are released and they can be turned into rotary-wing aircraft. They are equipped with a dual-propelled power system and the roads are driven and the two-pronged approach to flying. The car body is almost the same as a normal car, and the suspension system is lower. The double cockpit can also be tilted to better adapt to the curvature of the ground.

According to the official, PAL-Liberty takes only 5-10 minutes to complete the deformation process. When it enters the flight mode, the wind drum thruster will automatically expand, but the driver only needs to push out the tail part to open two rotor blades and start it. Propulsion unit will be ready for flight. Before trying the real flying car, I guess you’d better try some Multi Rotor Parts for RC players first.

This flying car, named Liberty, is a combination of a two-seat hybrid car and a rotary-wing aircraft that can switch between driving mode and flight mode within 10 minutes. With a two-seater design, the maximum speed on the road is about 100 miles (161 kilometers) per hour, the maximum speed in the sky is about 112 miles (about 180 kilometers) per hour, and the highest flight altitude is 11,000 feet. Landing mode maximum life is about 1315km, the maximum life in flight mode is about 500km.

In addition, in order to drive this flying car, the driver must hold a flight license in addition to the driver's license. Users of the PAL-V Liberty flying car must have a flying driver's license and a road car driver's license. Given its type of rotorcraft, a flight record of 35 hours is also required for the flight license. 

Rodeo F150 Walkera Mini Drone FPV Racing

Walkera is planning to market its new drone race and this will be the smallest of its collection. So far drones Walkera has three major races. The Walkera Racer 250, the F210 and finally the Furious 320 Walkera which I'm testing right now. Of these three, the larger the Furious Walkera 320. Well recently I found myself in Hobby Expo China 2016 race drone smallest of this company which is named Walkera Rodeo F150.

The Walkera Rodeo F150 looks much like its big brother the F210 Walkera. Both have this kind of elongated upward, like a shark fin or something chassis. One design very interesting, although not very comfortable to put external cameras as a GoPro, Mobius or something. The weight of F150 will only be about 210 grams and this will come in several versions.

The flight controller is called F150 Walkera Rodeo Rodeo FCS-150, but it is possible that this is based on the controller SP Racing F3, which is very popular now in drones career. The hall inside this mini drone is the RX-716 and the video transmitter, which is 5.8Ghz, called TX5832, although there will be another version that will come with the RX5833.

As mentioned above the weight will be about 210 grams and so far everything seems to indicate that the battery is two cells with 800mAh. With regard to electronic speed controllers ESC these are simply named Rodeo 150, but so far no information regarding the amperage of these and see coupled with the WK-WS-17-002 Walkera engines. The front camera of this mini drone will have a resolution of 600TVL. So far apparently Walkera Rodeo F150 will come with Devo 7 transmitter, which many of you know.

With respect to the market price, this will depend on several versions as they come. One version only brings the mini drone and the station or transmitter Devo 7. The second version will come with Devo 7 and also a screen to fly FPV. The latest version will come with the new glasses FPV Walkera Walkera that Google 4 Advanced Edition are named. Digital Torrente will have more news on this mini drone and I'm hoping to drop me a copy around here for analysis.

Additionally, if you happen need to purchase some of the multi rotor parts, you could choose Banggood, which is one of the wholesale platform to provide you affordable prices, such as imax b8 battery, hobbywing 150a esc, etc.
