Abstract

The car has been invented for more than a century. In the 21st century, new cars will realize the function of land and sky bidirectional driving. The author designed a flying concept car, powered by a wheel jet engine, named Dunhuang Feitian. He won the second prize in the Second China University Art Competition. The car is equipped with a “turbine ram engine” inside the four hubs. The aerodynamic layout is designed in a cross shape. The wheel engine jets downwards, which can flexibly adjust the flight attitude. The author did not sacrifice industrial design aesthetics in order to highlight flight performance. He borrowed the beautiful curve contours of Dunhuang Feitian in the body design, designed the car to be streamlined, and equipped with a four-axis stabilization system in safety configuration. performance. In addition, this article also predicts the future development of automobiles, and provides comfortable, environmentally friendly, green solutions to alleviate the increasingly serious traffic congestion problems, and has a broad application prospect.

Highlights

  • The car has been invented for more than a century

  • The Origin of Flying Cars In 1907, the French Breguet brothers invented the four-rotor helicopter, and backward manipulation led to poor flight stability

  • China's Geely Automobile Co., Ltd. uses "Volvo" safety technology to develop two types of flying cars, Terrafugia and TF-X. The former requires a short runway for take-off, and the latter uses folded wings to take off and land vertically to a high altitude without a runway

Summary

History of flying cars

The Origin of Flying Cars In 1907, the French Breguet brothers invented the four-rotor helicopter, and backward manipulation led to poor flight stability. China's Geely Automobile Co., Ltd. uses "Volvo" safety technology to develop two types of flying cars, Terrafugia and TF-X. The former requires a short runway for take-off, and the latter uses folded wings to take off and land vertically to a high altitude without a runway
