It is hardly the world of futuristic sci-fi movies anymore. It is now a reality that several companies around the globe are attempting to create flying cars and taxis. Not only that, but some companies have also claimed to have made flying motorcycles that will soon be available for commercial use.

One such company is Jetpack Aviation which has made and tested a flying motorcycle and is set to release it in 2023. Let us look at the flying motorcycle in more detail.

Features of the upcoming flying motorcycles

Jetpack Aviation, a California-based company, developed a flying motorcycle in 2021. They completed the maiden test flight of their first prototype, called P1. 

The motorcycle has the following features:

  • power source: the speeder is not electric. Several small jet engines will propel it;
  • models: the flying motorcycle will be available in two recreational models: an ultralight craft that can fly at 60 mph and an experimental version of 250 mph.
  • flight control software: speeder required JPA to write its software program for the purpose of managing the thrust. It led to an intuitive system that functions like a normal motorcycle that stabilizes the machine in flight;
  • vertical take-off and landing: it can take off and land vertically in the space taken up by a car. It can also be programmed to fly autonomously;
  • flight time: the full-flat military version will have 35 minutes of flying time, and the civilian speeders will have 15 minutes of flying time;
  • maximum height of flight: the motorcycle is claimed to go as high as 15,000 feet;
  • training: all training will be provided by JPA or one of their authorized training centers.

The flying motorcycle: price and availability

The Jetpack Aviation will be available from 2023.

The Jetpack Aviation flying motorcycle is available for purchase at a price of $ 380,000. There is a waiting list for the product, and it is not currently available for purchase. The company is based in the United States, and customers can purchase the product through their website.

Which other countries are taking special interest in flying motorcycles

Other countries have also taken an interest in developing flying motorcycles, not just the US-based flying bikes. AERWINS Technologies, a Japanese start-up, has also come up with a flying motorcycle. 

The hoverbike is called XTURISMO and is capable of flight for 40 minutes and can reach speeds up to 100 km/h.

Engineering students from Netaji Subhash University of Technology in Delhi, India, have also converted a Triumph 675 Daytona superbike into a hoverbike prototype

However, other countries that have not built such technology seek interest in using it. In countries such as Dubai, there is a greater potential seen in the use of flying hoverbikes. Dubai Police has taken special training in flying bikes for police and intelligence work.

The future of flying motorcycles: where this technology is headed

We’re on the cusp of a new era of personal aviation, and it’s all thanks to flying motorcycles. That’s right: two-wheeled vehicles that let you take to the skies like never before. Flying motorcycles are still in their infancy, but they hold tremendous potential for the future.

With further development, they could revolutionise personal transportation and make getting around easier than ever before.

There are a few different designs of flying motorcycles currently being developed. Some, like the one being created by Aerofex, resemble traditional motorcycles with rotors attached to the frame. Others, such as the one being developed by Opener, look more like small planes with two large rotors on the wings. Regardless of their appearance, all flying motorcycles work in basically the same way. They use vertical lifts to take off and landing, and they can reach speeds of up to 100 miles per hour.

Igor Sikorsky developed the first flying motorcycle in early 1940s. However, it wasn’t until recently that the technology was advanced enough to make flying motorcycles a reality. One of the biggest challenges facing flying motorcycle developers is making the vehicles safe and easy to operate. After all, when you’re piloting a flying motorcycle, there’s no room for error.

Will flying motorcycles be soon in the skies?

Several new innovations in technology are taking place all the time. It is interesting to see that several companies worldwide are producing flying motorcycles today.

The one made by JPA is especially unique because it gives a good idea about the technology to use. It has its own software and claims to be a motorbike that is not much different from one on the ground in terms of stability. The commercial availability of the product is now surely about to arrive.
