2 Seat Drone - Fly Inside Your Own Drone

Jet Capsule suggests two-seater drone as a sleek carbon body. Designed by pierpaolo lazzarini from italian company jet capsule, the I.F.O or ‘identified flying object’ is a proposed two seater drone/copter vehicle. the chassis, composed of a main central capsule cockpit, measures two meters in diameter and is surrounded by a carbon fiber disk with an overall dimension of 4.70 meters. Jet Capsule‘s I.F.O. is fuelled by eight electric engines, able to push the flying object to an estimated top speed of about 120 mph. different energy resources are provided from various batteries located in the disk and with an additional battery pack placed at the center of the capsule body, the estimated flight autonomy ranges between sixty and seventy minutes. for a smooth landing, the vehicle has six folding and extending suspensions — which makes it possible to access the I.F.O through an elevator, generated from the lower sub-spherical body. otherwise, the capsule can be access by two removable bridges, available on any specific landing station.

Just as you would expect, the flying saucer stands on spindly extending legs, with built in suspension to soften landings. Eight rotors are planted in the carbon fiber disc that surrounds the spherical 6.5-foot cockpit in the center, which is accessed via a basket elevator that lowers from the bottom of the craft. In the case of an emergency, the pod can detach from the rest of the vehicle to deploy a parachute for a safe landing.

Lazzarini says that the curious vehicle “does not change much with respect to the technology that is at the base of a standard drone,” aside from being “driven from the inside.” He and Jet Capsule are seeking investors.

There is no word on how expensive having your own personal UFO will be. Still, the experience of scaring your neighbors with the threat of a close encounter? That’s priceless.
