The 'Scorpion-3' hoverbike is developed like a bike and a helicopter into one, making it known as a quadcopter. This technology is an advancement in transport that could make flying and surfing in air available and accessible to interested sports enthusiast or to those who would want to beat traffic.
In a report by LiveScience, the hoverbike prototype is recently launched by a Russian industrial company, Hoversurf. Dubbed as the 'Scorpion-3', the hoverbike technology takes off from the quadcopter and drone technology using the conventional motorcycle design and concept. It is driver - friendly because it can be driven not just by professional drivers but even those who are new in driving and flying.
Likewise, according to Mirror, Hoversurf combines the motorcycle and the quadcopter technology to come up with the new flying vehicle. This technology advancement is seen as an answer to the problems on traffic, if put into commercial production. In a recent video released by the company, it showed the manned single seater bike flying inside a warehouse while testing the bike.
It was revealed that the 'Scorpion-3' will be launched for ''extreme'' sports but this is also available for the amateurs. The hoverbike is equipped with a custom software that will enable the driver to choose either manual or automated control. Moreover, it has advanced flight controllers that can program speed and altitude.
While, Russia is developing the hoverbike, the US military in partnership with Malloy Aeronautics is also developing a hoverbike for the military. While Russia looks at sports for their hoverbikes, America is targeting its soldiers in the field as future users of the invention.
