killing me man... my profit targets just got pushed up from $300,000 to $3,000,000! :-) The Moller Skycar (www.moller.com) is also an exciting project, although I don't know when it will hit mass market.



The Skycar is an awesome concept. I have been keeping track of it for a few years now. They are already mass producing the m200 flying saucer that only carries one person to fund the development of the Skycar.


Moller Aerospace is based here in Davis, and I don't see any signs of them mass-producing anything.

As far as I know, he has a single prototype which may or may not hover when attached by a wire to a crane. There was a press release about six months ago which said they were entering production, but as far as I know it hasn't happened.


He was sued by the SEC in 2003 for making false claims about his product (among other things). Considering he has been working on it for 40 years, it's probably all a scheme to relieve investors of their money.
