Welcome to the Vertical Century !
Watch how VTOL will change life for better !
New generation VTOL aircraft for new generation

USA design and utility patent
images below for visualization purposes only
Specification :
flying distance : 1000 km ( 620 miles )
speed : > 300 km/h ( 186 mph )
max take off weight : 2500 kg ( 5500 pounds )
power : 2 x 500 KW hybrid motors ( gas + electric )
capacity : 6 seats
propulsion system : 2 counter rotating 200 cm air turbines
safety : 2 parachutes
JETcopter structure
all components can be changeable - for example will be possible to upgrade JETcopter fuselage with latest versions of power plant or airturbines .
WHY JETCOPTER WILL BE MORE EFFICIENT VTOL ?
Jetcopter and helicopter climb ways . JETcopter is able to use air lifting power , helicopter not .
JETcopter evolution
Engine :
2 x 450 hp automotive with duplicated fuel ,
cooling , power supply systems .
Reliable and less mechanically complex
no swash plates , no cyclic , no hydraulics , no clutch .
Take off : helicopter mode or plane mode
fly as plane
will be able to land at auto parking ,
will be able to maneuver safe between cars
powered by reliable automotive motors ,
may not need helicopter pilot licence
much easier to pilot
Production costs ( compared with 6 place helicopter ) :
rotors - 70 % cheaper
carbon fiber fuselage - 50 % cheaper
motors - 90 % cheaper
Operational costs
predicted 60-70 % lower than helicopter
better aerodynamics
better functionality
equipped with 2 parachute life saving system
fuselage all made from carbon fiber
Tilt wings with 4 vectoring nozzles
