Personal electric helicopter

Hirobo is famous for its radio-controlled helicopter models. Now they decided to go a little further, and made a single-seat micro-helicopter.



HX-1, as dubbed the model, can lift one person into the air. Flight time is only half an hour (at a speed of 97 kilometers per hour). The flight will be almost silent.



It is planned to invest about $ 125 million over the next seven years. The first test flight is scheduled for 2013 (with a successful test, the model’s output to the conveyor for mass production is scheduled for 2021).

Oh yes. Such a thing will cost $ 375,000.

These are approximately 3 jetpacks with paid life insurance policies.
