French inventor Franky Zapata, who is on the agenda with flying cars and other personal flying vehicles, takes a bigger step this time with his new personal aircraft JetRacer. Offering both military and civilian use, the vehicle has exciting features.
JetRacer debuts as a flying car capable of vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) with ten micro-turbojet engines with a racing seat-like driver’s cabin. JetRacer, which is reported to have high speed and maneuverability on Zapata’s website, uses the same engines used in the inventor’s old invention, the Flayboard Air.

The new flying car concept could have various uses in civil and military fields. The vehicle, which can be used in special operations, security inspections such as patrols or reconnaissance areas, can also be used in the entertainment sector on the civilian side or in rapid transportation areas for the city.
According to Zapata on the relevant website, JetRacer can carry a maximum weight of 200 kilograms. In addition, the vehicle can reach a speed of 250 kilometers per hour, as well as climb to a height of 3,000 meters. The video also shows that the vehicle can roll over. However, a registration campaign has been launched for the vehicle’s test flights in the USA.
