Chapter 151 Flying Car Test Flight
Later, Zhang Yi also explained the purpose of coming to them this time.
In fact, the military is very aware of the fact that Zhang Yi and his Colorful Stone Group are developing flying cars, but they just don't know the progress of their research.
At the same time, the military has no hope that Qicaishi Group is developing flying cars. You have to know how many car manufacturers and other manufacturers in the world are also working hard to develop flying cars.
But so far, there are only a few manufacturers that have successfully developed flying cars, and Geely is one of them. Moreover, the flying cars developed by these manufacturers have basically no practical value.
The flying cars developed by these manufacturers basically use propellers as power, and either require a long runway to taxi to take off, or they are like a helicopter, but have a huge propeller and require a large
You can take off only if there is open space.
At the same time, they also know that the flying car developed by Zhang Yi and his Colorful Stone Group does not use propellers, but uses a ducted propulsion engine as power.
According to Colorful Stone Group's vision, this flying car can take off on any terrain and is very practical.
The military doesn't have much hope for their colorful stones, but they are still paying attention.
"What? Your Colorful Stone Group's flying teleportation vehicle has been successfully researched?" Major Ma asked with his eyes widened and a look of disbelief on his face.
"Yes, the technicians and I just completed the assembly last night and also did some tests in the factory. The flying car found no problems when it was stationary or suspended. It was perfect." Zhang Yi replied.
"Okay! Then I will report this matter to the military immediately. I think there is a question about the test flight of your colorful stone flying car.
I think the military is definitely very willing to see it, but why do you have to apply through our military? In fact, the country will open low-altitude airspace soon, so you can also apply at the air traffic control department."
Major Ma said to Zhang Yi while picking up the phone.
"No, it is too slow to apply through the air traffic control department, but it is faster to apply through your military." Zhang Yi said with a smile.
Soon, Major Ma dialed the phone number of the military region and reported the incident. Then he hung up the phone and said to Zhang Yi, "Mr. Zhang! Please wait a moment, our military region is responding to the incident."
Report this matter, I think there will be a reply after a while."
"Okay! It's okay to wait a little longer."
"Mr. Zhang! I have to say that your Colorful Stone Group is really powerful. I won't go into details about the previous special glass, special steel and bearings.
When it comes to flying cars, you need to know how many companies across the country are also working hard in this area, such as Geely Group, Biddy Company, etc. These automobile manufacturing groups have all invested a lot of time and money in this area, as well as manpower and
Material resources, but these companies have made little progress until now.
As for your Colorful Stone Group, it only took just over a month from the beginning of the project establishment to the successful development. You have already produced the product and are ready to test it.
I have to say that everyone has underestimated the research capabilities of your Colorful Stone Group." After finishing speaking, Major Ma gave Zhang Yi a thumbs up.
Before they could chat for long, Major Ma's phone rang. After he answered it, he quickly put it down. After putting down the phone, he said to Zhang Yi, "Mr. Zhang! Let's go and take a look.
For the flying car developed by your Colorful Stone Group, the military region has agreed to your right and wrong request.
However, the test flight of your flying car can only be carried out by professionals." After saying this, he turned to Fang Jinming and said, "Lieutenant Fang, the military region called just now and said that the flight will wait a moment.
The test flight of the car is completed by you. I wonder if you have any questions?"
"No problem! I promise to complete the mission. Even if the military region doesn't tell me, I still want to try out the flying car produced by Colorful Stone to see how it is different from an airplane." After saying that, the three of them walked towards the flying car laboratory.
Soon they arrived at the flying car laboratory. At this time, there were already many people in the flying car laboratory. These people were the top academics who had been hired by Zhang Yi to develop flying cars together.
At this time, these top students are conducting final inspections on the flying car to ensure that all equipment can operate normally during the test flight of the flying car.
Although this flying car has been equipped with a lot of safety equipment at this time, such as airbags, parachutes, etc., as long as the flying car encounters any situation in the air, such as losing power or problems with the power supply, etc.
Many places around the car will be bounced away immediately, and the airbags inside will be inflated by compressed air, forming huge airbags around the car. Therefore, if the flying car loses power at a height of tens of meters, it will only rely on these airbags.
, which can ensure the safety of the people in the car.
Of course, if the altitude is higher, you still need to rely on parachutes to reduce the buffering force, and then rely on the protection of these airbags to ensure the safety of the flying car and personnel.
After all, flying cars are different from airplanes and other aircraft. Flying cars will be used by ordinary people in the future, and most ordinary people have not received skydiving training. If you use ejection seats to escape, it is likely to be more dangerous.
Moreover, their company's aircraft is different from airplanes. Generally, airplanes use fuel to make their engines work. However, their company's flying car uses all electricity as energy source. Under normal circumstances, flying cars will not
There is a risk of explosion, so the entire aircraft can be parachuted.
"Master Yan! How are Master Niu's preparations?" After arriving at the laboratory, Zhang Yi asked the two mid-level academic masters in the laboratory.
"Boss, all the preparations have been completed. All the equipment of the flying car is very normal and can be tested at any time."
"This is your Qicai Shiyan's flying car. I don't think it is much different from an ordinary car. Except that the cab is in the front like a minivan and the appearance is more gorgeous, this is just an ordinary car.
!”
Just after entering the laboratory, Fang Jinming took a look at the flying car developed by Zhang Yi and Colorful Stone. He found that this flying car did not have the wings or propellers found on ordinary flying cars.
The cars on the road don't make much difference.
If I have to say it, this car is somewhat similar to the concept cars developed by some car manufacturers.
Since the shell of this flying car is made of special glass, Zhang Yi and the others have already done some processing inside the glass, so people standing outside cannot see what's going on inside.
Moreover, since the flying car has not started at this time, all the ducted fan engines are hidden inside the body. Naturally, the motives of the flying car and so on cannot be seen at this time.
"That's good! Let's start the test flight right away!" After saying that, Zhang Yi entered the flying car, started to start the flying car, and then slowly drove out of the flying car laboratory.
Since Zhang Yi and others had already considered the issue of driving on the road when they designed this car, this flying car can also be driven on the road like other cars.
However, when this flying car is driving on the road, the source of power does not come from the wheels, but from the ducted motor on and behind the car chassis.
After slowly driving out of the laboratory, Zhang Yi asked Fang Jinming to come up and teach him the various functions of the flying car.
In fact, the operation of this flying car is extremely simple. As long as the height of the flying car is set, then when the flying car starts the flight mode, the flying car can automatically lift off to the set height.
Of course, when the car is flying at high altitude, it can also adjust the flying height according to the nozzle of the rear engine, but the range of height adjustment is limited. The lower the height of the aircraft, the smaller the adjustable range.
The speed is also slower.
For example, if the altitude is set below one meter and the flying car is flying close to the ground, there is basically no possibility of fine-tuning the flying car while flying.
At this time, the up and down movement of the rear nozzle of the flying car has been locked, and it cannot move up and down. It can only move left and right to adjust the left and right turns of the flying car. Moreover, at this time, the flight speed of the flying car can only reach an hourly rate.
Only thirty kilometers.
When the flying car reaches a height of more than five meters and less than ten meters, the flying car can operate within a range of about one meter through the tail nozzle of the engine during flight, and the flying speed will not exceed 50 kilometers.
per hour.
When the height of the flying car exceeds 450 meters, the restriction on the tail nozzle of the aircraft is lifted, and the speed limit is also lifted. The flying car can freely fly left, right, up and down, and can reach a maximum of 45o kilometers.
Every hour.
After teaching Fang Jinming how to operate the flying car, Zhang Yi got off the car. In fact, if possible, Zhang Yi really wanted to test fly the flying car by himself.
But unfortunately, the military had already issued the order, and Major Ma was watching from the side, so Zhang Yi could only give up.
After Zhang Yi came down, Fang Jinming started the self-test program of the flying car and conducted self-tests on various systems of the flying car.
"Report! The self-check of the flying car is complete. Is it ready to take off?" Soon the self-check of the flying car was completed, and Fang Jinming said to Major Ma through the communication system in the car.
Chapter completed!
