China's first fully electric single-seater flying "go-kart," the AnTGOne, is about to enter production. Impressively, it takes only three minutes for beginners to experience the fun of flying, the Science and Technology Daily reported on Friday.

As a manned aircraft, the AnTGOne is equipped with a self-developed flight control system, crafted from aviation aluminum and carbon fiber materials. With a maximum payload capacity exceeding 200 kilograms, this remarkable vehicle prioritizes a lightweight and foldable design, making it perfectly suited to meet the diverse demands of the market, according to Science and Technology Daily.

This product is designed to deliver an exhilarating flying experience, with a focus on ultra-low altitude flight. It allows users to freely switch between three flight modes: experience mode, player mode, and automatic mode, and even complete beginners can experience the joy of flying after just three minutes of learning, according to the report.

The person in charge of the company that produced the go-kart, Feng Guangwei, said that hundreds of hours of simulated manned flights, conducted at a weight of 75 kilograms, have already been carried out. Manned flight tests will be carried out according to the established timeline, and the product will undergo additional testing and finalization, with formal production expected to commence in March 2025, Feng added.

At present, the company has received nearly 500 orders, and the first batch of products has been designated for export, according to the report.
