jet capsule suggests two-seater drone as a sleek carbon body

designed by pierpaolo lazzarini from italian company jet capsule, the I.F.O or ‘identified flying object’ is a proposed two seater drone/copter vehicle. the chassis, composed of a main central capsule cockpit, measures two meters in diameter and is surrounded by a carbon fiber disk with an overall dimension of 4.70 meters.

jet capsule‘s I.F.O. is fuelled by eight electric engines, able to push the flying object to an estimated top speed of about 120 mph. different energy resources are provided from various batteries located in the disk and with an additional battery pack placed at the center of the capsule body, the estimated flight autonomy ranges between sixty and seventy minutes. for a smooth landing, the vehicle has six folding and extending suspensions — which makes it possible to access the I.F.O through an elevator, generated from the lower sub-spherical body. otherwise, the capsule can be access by two removable bridges, available on any specific landing station.
