It is described as a car since it is aimed at being a popular means of transport anyone can drive, incorporating automated flight controls. The driver should only input direction and speed, no pilot knowledge being required.
Also it is argued that using unexpensive engines (wankel) and hardware, its price will eventually fall close to that of a quality car, even if at the moment the price for the first units is expected to be close to $ 1 million.
As of November 2001, the vehicle has not flown independently. According to the developers, whilst the engines and fans are developing sufficient lift to allow takeoff, development on the software to ensure the stability of the craft in the air is not yet complete.
Its features include 350 mph cruise speed, eight wankel engines, garage size, consumption like a big car, a parachute for the whole machine and road capacity for short distances (to be driven to a take-off facility). There are photos and complete information at [www.moller.com]
