Yes, but it won't be the first time Whistlin' Diesel has done something to a car without worrying about the consequences. Won't even be the first Tesla.
Don't know why you think the car would land on its battery and not the tires. Do you think that Elon wouldn't use all of that knowledge that Space-X developed using rockets to land the first stage booster of their starship rockets, to slow the descent of the car. This idea is dumb for any practical use, but his engineers could make it work. I could see him using it as a way to show off and get advertising for less money than paying for actual ads.We're already giving him free advertising right here. It would be pulled out for events like races and maybe airshows like some Tesla version of the Oscar Meyer Wiener mobile. The air-ready version is only available to people Tesla offers it to, so only stunt drivers will be able to fly them.
100% I expect that due to the very very low production numbers the automation on that will be half baked. Sure the tires would have touched down, but oops, there was an obstacle
Yeah I know who he is he broke the backend of a cyber truck.
Elon has no knowledge he pays people that have the knowledge to make things and takes the credit.
If you knew anything and this isn't a insult about anything he's attached to and listend to him you would know he's a dumbass.
The cyber truck was his idea and every engineer told him why straight panels are bad and he said 5 microns spacing and again the engineers said why thats a bad idea but no he had to have it and the rest is history.
Musk was born with wealth buys companies hires competent people and takes the credit.
I know people that worked for Tesla I know people that have interacted with him I know during his supposed long night's sleeping at space x that was him in a coke bender.
Right now he has 5 companies and sits on shitter getting blasted on ketamine.
He's a very successful con man he's probably the most successful con man of all time maybe outside of Trump.
This fucking dumbass said he's putting data centers on the moon and if you know basic highschool things you know theirs no air in space so heat cannot move and that means data centers burn and this isn't taking into consideration the horrible latency.
Here's a list of everything unethical and illegal things he's done.
Yes, I know all of this. Like I said, he'll pay his engineers to make it work as a marketing gimmick.
Much like this flying car, the moon data center is technologically possible, but not practical. They would have to circulate a fluid through a cooling loop in contact with the lunar crust. It's actually a lot easier to cool than satalites, which we already cool now. It's just less efficient than cooling on Earth, way more expensive and has a lot of latency in the connection. They would probably run into bandwidth issues with the signal too.
That's the thing about thinking that "basic highschool things" are all you need to know if something is a good idea. Engineers with degrees know how to make a lot of things that a person who only has a high school diploma doesn't. After figuring out if it's possible someone has to decide if the project is practical. Making a flying car as an advertising gimmick to sell a new product might be practical. Building data centers on the moon when there's land for sale on Earth, probably not.
People have way more regard for that guy for driving a truck off a cement platform to destroy it than they do to Tesla for making a car that can fly in a barrel roll. I think it's dumb.
It won't even get that far. This "car" is 200lbs of fiberglass and wheels with a small motor. 2000+lbs doesn't move like that, has never moved like that, and will never move like that. This is smoke and mirrors and everyone is falling for it.
