This week’s entry in the Awesomely Weird Alibaba Electric Vehicle of the Week is a manned flying machine that you can actually buy from China. At a price of $78,000, this electric aircraft isn’t cheap, but it does come with a payload capacity of up to 100 kg (220 lb). It runs on a 24s battery system, giving it a maximum flight time of 30 minutes.
This aircraft is perfect for those looking to beat traffic, as it can fly at 10 m/s (22 mph or 36 km/h). It also comes with a nice-looking leather captain’s chair and a complimentary seatbelt.
However, this electric aircraft isn’t without its risks. With a quartet of decapitators resting a few inches above your head, there’s always the chance of an earthward plunge. That’s why it’s important to have an emergency landing plan in place before taking off.
So while this electric aircraft looks really cool, it’s probably best to just enjoy window shopping for it from afar. But isn’t it fun to just imagine what it’d be like to take to the skies?
