I Want: A Martin Jetpack

Douglas Charles Managing Editor

Man, we are so close to being like the Jetsons I can feel it. I mean, weren’t we all supposed to be in flying cars and stuff by now anyway? The only thing stopping me from commuting to work with this Martin Jetpack now is the slight issue of it’s $100 gr price tag.

The Martin Jetpack is capable of 30 minutes of flight at 60 mph and 8,000 feet, which is more than enough for your commute. It doesn’t technically require a pilot’s license, and has just two primary controls: left joystick controls pitch and roll, right joystick controls yaw and throttle. It runs on standard automotive fuel, too.
