Comment on Will electric flying taxis live up to their promise?

Helicopter taxis exist today, but almost nobody uses them because they are too expensive. These don’t solve the expense issue, I see no reason these will change anything notable
Range of 22 miles
Ah, so even worse at its basic function than helicopter taxis we have today. The chopper has to fly from it’s base, to you, to your destination, then back to it’s base using a total of 22 miles? Worthless.

Hit the nail right on the head. This is kust a company trying to rebrand helicopters. And bad helicopters at that. They are banking on naive people who think this is actually a novel and viable technology. It will at the very best be another toy for the super wealthy to send the kids to Disney.
