Airspeeder is the world’s first racing series for electric flying cars.
Our mission will accelerate eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) advanced aviation technology through intense sporting competition. This mobility revolution, underpinned by future tech will transform urban air mobility (UAM), global logistics and even medical applications with a clean-air electric vehicle (EV) solution.
Our racing multicopters are developed at our advanced aerospace engineering hub in Adelaide, South Australia by engineers drawn from elite motorsports, automotive, aviation and even FPV drone, electric plane, electric vehicles and passenger drone backgrounds.
Airspeeder’s vision will deliver the most exciting and future focused motorsport on the planet. Following an inaugural unmanned season, elite pilots will take to the skies to race prop-to-prop while navigating electronically governed racetracks in the skies above some of the most visually arresting scenery in the world. These manned multirotor electric vehicles will define a new era in advanced air mobility (AAM).
Airspeeder’s first unmanned air race is scheduled for 2021 and will feature a full grid of multirotor unmanned Airspeeder Mk3 racing craft. The best pilots from drone racing will utilise latest RPAS (remotely piloted aircraft systems) in aerial battles across the globe.
Our innovations will hasten the arrival of new advanced air mobility (AAM) technologies. Close but safe air racing is assured through latest LiDAR and radar technologies that create virtual forcefields around the sport’s cutting edge quadcopter format flying cars. Rapid hair-pin turning manoeuvrability is delivered using a multicopter layout. This pioneering approach to aircraft design also enhances stability while electronic speed control (ESC) systems empower pilots to exploit the full potential of our advanced electric powertrains.

Hey Felix, it is not a race car and aerodynamics and stability can be dramatically improved if you give up your race car design emphasis. First the fuselage shouldn’t be oriented as is you are sitting flat of the ground. The Speeder when flying fast will be tilted forward so that would mean that the fuselage should be tilted backward to minimize drag. Regarding stability, the fuselage should not be sitting on top but rather hanging below the 4 arms stretching out to the props.
Meh
So when can I buy one ?
So when am I going to be able to buy one?
It looks like as General Grievus’s starship ?. Anyways impressive, keep it up.
Any flying videos?
Groovy looking ride…. Very nice..
Wow you made a drone based on off the shelf hardware. Clever boys.
No one seems to talk about the increase in power required when scaling up from a drone to a car capable of carrying a person. I am not a mathematician but I know that it is proprtional to the cubed size and weight and would expect that doubling the size would require at least a 4 fold increase in power.
That’s one sexy machine. It’s reminiscent of the early race cars of the 1930s.
Visibility for sitting in an F1 is designed for two dimensions. Ever sit in an F-16?
Great design looks so fast !
Wow, these Airspeeders could well be the next big thing. They certainly look great!
