Now you can have wings. Now you can walk on air. Now you can overcome your limitations. Now you can become a superhero. ArcaBoard will make you get there. Your perception of who you are and who you can become will be forever changed. ArcaBoard it's an extension of your will and creativity by offering raw lifting power and total freedom of movement. There are no limits, no restrictions, no boundaries. There is only you and ArcaBoard.


The ArcaBoard is a machine lifted by 36 high power electric ducted fans with a maximum thrust of 200 kgf (430 lbs). It has a built-in stabilization unit, meaning that ArcaBoard is stable in any condition and is a very safe platform to fly on. You will be able to utilize your phone for control and navigation of the vehicle itself. But for the most intense experience you can turn off the stabilization system and steer the ArcaBoard with your body
A huge amount of power inside.
How do you put 272 horsepower inside a vehicle slightly larger than a skateboard? The answer is with very great care. The Electric Ducted Fans (EDF), together with the controllers and the batteries, they occupy 90 percent of the space inside the board. This generates a significant amount of heat that is dissipated using a high performance cooling system. By using 36 power fans we ensure that even in the case of multiple motor failures there are enough motors remaining to take over so you keep on riding.
