空飛ぶクルマで大阪・関西万博会場へ 25年に向けSkyDriveが実証実験

 Go to the Expo venue with a flying car. Air taxi initiatives will accelerate for the 2025 Osaka and Kansai Expo. SkyDrive (Shinjuku -ku, Tokyo), which develops a flying car, conducted a demonstration experiment on the 22nd and 23rd to get data for maritime flights with drones at the Osaka Port Central Store. In addition, an air taxi model machine is released. Increased momentum for social implementation. In the experiment, SkyDrive uses a cargo drone that has already been commercialized. Flying up to 20 meters offshore and 50 meters offshore, we collected and analyzed data such as the influence of the sea breeze, the frequency and time of charging with the sensor. He went 12 times in two days in a marine flight for about 5 minutes. In addition, a test machine aircraft was released at Tenpoyama Market Place (Minato -ku, Osaka). The aircraft is 4x4 meters in size and is equipped with eight propellers and is designed for one -seater. In social implementation, it will be a two -seater, including pilots, and the number of propellers will be considered as the size increases a little. When flying as an air taxi at the Expo, fly 100 meters above the ground and send one passenger from Kansai International Airport to Yumeshima. According to the company, flight rates are expected to be tens of thousands of yen. The difference between a flying car and a drone is to ensure safety in putting people in addition to the size of the aircraft. Although it is legally treated as an aircraft, it uses a battery instead of an engine for power, so its efforts to revise the Aviation Law are proceeding in public -private partnerships. CEO Tomohiro Fukuzawa said, "The flight test site in Aichi Prefecture has repeated a flying test with pilots. I want to complete the prototype one year before the expo. You will be able to carry two passengers. "
