At the same time, we invite you to listen to the latest episode of the podcast from a technical point of view. This time we spoke with the creator of Jetson ONE – a passenger drone that has a chance to revolutionize the concept of personal transportation. How does an air craft work, how much does it cost and can the average Kowalski fly in it?
