The Flying Bike:

The Fbike will be able to fly as the name suggests but it will also be able to move on roads normally. There are total 6 propellers attached with the Flying Bike. There are four electric motors of 10KW power in the front. It will also have accelerometers and gyroscopes for monitoring the state of the Fbike in all conditions.

Two of them are attached with the front part; two of them are attached with the end half and two of them are attached on the sides.
