As the name suggests, both the H202 and H202-Z are <strong>hydrogen peroxide-fueled jetpacks<\/strong> that will allow uers to fly at up to <strong>77 miles per hour<\/strong> at a maximum height of <strong>250 feet<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>So far thought, the higher-capacity H202-Z is only capable of a maximum flight length of <strong>33 seconds<\/strong> and a maximum travel<strong> distance of 3,300 feet<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/future-techonology-coming-true-soon\/jpi-jetpack.jpg\" alt=\"Jet Pack International H202\" height=\"294\" width=\"500\"><\/figure>\n<p>But you have to admit, it\u2019s a start. The Jet Pack International units have great potential, and the lacking travel time and distance is outweighed by how mobile and controllable the flight is and how compact the units actually are.<\/p>\n<p>The Jet Pack International H202 and H202-Z are actually currently available, albeit not commercially: you can <strong>assemble the jetpack<\/strong> yourself, if you have <strong>$100,000<\/strong> lying around.<\/p>\n<h2>2.

The Aero-X is the result of more than <strong>15 years of research and development<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Powered by a <strong>water-cooled 240 horsepower engine<\/strong> and two large rotors, the Aero-Xcan hover <strong>at an altitude of 12 feet<\/strong> and at speeds of up to 45 miles per hour power.
