Fly

Mode 1

Configuration: The Drone is autonomous and can operate without payload (Cabin)

Operation (eg): Moving to the charging station

Mode 2

Configuration: Skate is autonomous and can operate without payload (Cabin)

Operation (eg): Moving to the charging station

Mode 3

Configuration: Skate + Cabin, with autonomous operation

Operation (eg): Used for horizontal mobility

Mode 4

Configuration: Drone + Cabin, with autonomous operation

Operation (eg): Used for vertical mobility

The Project

The FLY.PT project will develop the prototype of a personal air transport system, at scale, consisting of an autonomous aerial vehicle (drone), allowing air mobility, an autonomous vehicle, allowing land mobility, and a cabin that can be attached to a each of the two vehicles, creating an intermodal system.

Relevant Goals

1.Develop operating concepts and geometric concepts.

2.Design on a 1:1 scale, a vehicle consisting of a remotely operated electric rotary wing aerial component, an autonomous electric vehicle, and a passenger cabin to transport up to 2 people and their cargo, with an autonomy 30 min.

3.Produce, integrate and test a 1:4 scale prototype of the vehicle.

4.Design, prototype and test the coupling system between the cabin and the flight module, at 1:1 scale.

5.Integrate vehicle technical drawing (CAD) and structural analysis (FEM) developed in various WPs.
