It is known that the development of the electric car and rechargeable electric battery industry has also led to the creation of prototypes of flying taxis by private companies, commonly defined as passenger drones also known as 'urban air mobility vehicles', which can also travel 1-6 people over inter-urban distances, usually.

The paper presents the main technical solutions known for flying taxis, built or designed by various companies, differentiated mainly by the use/non-use of airplane wings in connection with propulsion assemblies: electric motor-propellers and by the way they are arranged and oriented in relation to the main body, of command and passenger transport.

The issue of producing more efficient electric batteries, usable by such vehicles, as well as the possibility of using the Coanda effect for the vertical ascent of some electric flying taxi vehicles are also analyzed.
