REVOLUTION IN HUMAN MOBILITY 
Have you ever dreamed of flying with the same simplicity as riding a bike?  SCORPION platform is indeed a right ride, which is a single-seat aircraft that rediscovers the art of flying and hovering a hi-tech quadcopter-based solution. It’s a unique electric-powered vessel combining a motorcycle seat with quadcopter drone technology bringing speed agility and stability of flight to the hands of amateur and professional navigators. For the moment, SCORPION platform is increasingly seen as an extreme sports instrument, yet the vessel’s transportation potential remains evident. Staring as a “crowdfunding” project, SCORPION platform is the next step in accessible amateur flying developed to inspire athletes, engineers, scientists and inventors around the world. 

Now we are proud to present the perfect hoverbike solution! The Future is closer than it seems.

SCORPION platform is part of a series of projects including Jetpack by Malloy, Aerofex, A. Duru, E-Hang, Bye Gravity, E-volo. SCORPION platform was designed for extreme conditions and employs in-house custom software for full manual and automated control resulting in a thrilling flight experience. We dedicated a lot of resources and efforts to Ride and Drive the exact unit’s size and shape resemble a compact dirt bike.

The design of SCORPION platform was inspired by heavy-duty sport-utility motorbike frames and the concept was combined with flight qualities providing speed and maneuvering. The machine basically surfs through the air by changing altitude and direction. While our projects cover civil aircraft engineering, SCORPION platform was initially designed as a powerful tool for those who dare to challenge. SCORPION platform is equipped with a safety system powered by state of the art flight controllers, special logical programing and passive elements with computer aided speed and altitude limiting.

Dubai Police, already home to Lamborghini patrol carsself-driving robots and android officers, has decided to take to the skies in what can only be described as a flying motorbike. The vehicle, called the Scorpion and designed by Russian tech company Hoversurf, relies on four propellers to stay airborne, with the rider crouched precariously close to the exposed blades. Capable of 40 mph and a travel time of 25 minutes, the single-seat craft, which can carry 600 lbs, can also operate autonomously.
After appearing at tech shows earlier this year, Dubai Police has decided to add one to its list of cutting-edge gadgets, all part of the force's "smart city" plans. According to the Facebook page of Hoversurf CEO Alexander Atamanov, the company has signed a memorandum of understanding with Dubai Police and has been invited to open mass production of the vehicle in the Dubai area.
