This supersized drone will fly you to work (or anywhere)
Ehang has recently created a jumbo drone that carried humans- The Ehong 184. They chose 184 because this drone carries 1 person, has 8 propellors, and has 4 arms. When you get into this drone, you are a passenger. Not a pilot. You simply enter in your destination and the drone brings you. Every drone is pre-plotted so you never have to worry about crashing into anything while flying through the air. Each propellor also has a back-up system, so if any propellor is somehow damaged of malfuncions, it will slowly decent to the ground. The Ehong 184 has all electric motors, and can fly around for a maximum of 23 minutes. It also only takes about 25 minutes to charge. Retail price at the moment is anywhere between $200,000 and $300,000.
