ARCA
Space Corporation announced today that it has created ArcaBoard. For
the first time in history, every person will be able to fly whenever
they want, wherever they want. ArcaBoard represents the first
revolutionary breakthrough in motion since the bicycle, automobile and
airplane.
ArcaBoard, an electric powered flying machine with 272
horsepower and 203,000 watts of installed power is the most powerful and
lightest personal vehicle ever created. ArcaBoard represents total
freedom of movement, total freedom of travel. ArcaBoard is a personal
vehicle that can move in every possible direction including upwards. The
retail price is $19,900 and is available for order now. Shipments will
start April 15, 2016.
“ArcaBoard represents a revolution in
motion. For the last 17 years we have developed aerospace technologies
that looked to the sky. We took our knowledge and applied it to
everyone’s dreams. Dreams of flying,” said Dumitru Popescu, CEO of ARCA
Space Corporation.
ArcaBoard is built from composite materials,
it has a length of 145x76x15 cm (57x30x6 inches) and a weight of 82 kg
(180 lbs). This technology allows a person with a weight up to 110 kg
(243 lbs) to be able to fly.
The vehicle is able to fly up to 30
cm (1 ft) and with speeds up to 20 km/h (12.5 mph) and the overall
performance is limited by the onboard sensors. The maximum endurance is 6
minutes, but with the ArcaDock accessory the user can be back in action
in 35 minutes.

ARCA Space achievements:
2004 - During the $10 million, Ansari X Prize Competition, ARCA launched the first rocket, Demonstrator 2B.
2006
- ARCA built the world's largest solar balloon that lifted into the
stratosphere the crew capsule of Stabilo, a manned suborbital vehicle
created after the end of Ansari X Prize Competition.
2007 - The
Stabilo program continued, this time with an even larger solar balloon
lifting the complete Stabilo vehicle into the stratosphere.
2008 - ARCA joined the $30 million Google Lunar X Prize Competition.
2010
- Helen rocket was launched at 120,000 ft, the event representing the
first powered flight in the Google Lunar X Prize Competition. The rocket
was transported into the stratosphere with the help of a helium
balloon.
2012 - Haas rockets series was introduced, consisting of Haas 2B and 2C, a suborbital, respectively orbital rocket launchers.
2013
- The European Space Agency (ESA) awarded ARCA with a contract to test
the parachutes system for the ExoMars spacecraft that will be launched
to Mars in 2016.
2014 - AirStrato “The most amazing air robot in the world” a UAV performed the first flights.
