@subbu subodh
Use this idea as a starting point
http://www.parrot.com/usa/products/rolling-spider/ (http://www.parrot.com/usa/products/rolling-spider/)

See attached photo. Wheels will have to be of biofoam or thermocole and very light (fraction of a gram), otherwise the quad will not lift it. Total cost under Rs 2000.

@romanxdsouza
Never at a loss for suggestions  ;D
Hey, come to think of it, may not be a bad idea.
Maybe i should build one myself!

Define drone. And please, we are no knights here.
Sorry for being a pedant, but have you ever built a "multirotor" or read about what goes into building one?
The weight, power, balance etc everything has to be considered into making one of those crowd magnets.
What you suggest can be built, but you need to take into consideration things like the weight your suggested multirotor can lift, or how you place the rc car so it doesn't throw the entire contraption out of balance.
Read as much as you can. This is all I could help you with with the vague description you gave.

hi
Nice sci fi project . Its possible to make such car but have no practical use.

any 27MHz Car u can add 2 D750 Motors and with FC. Believe me its never look good and u will not enjoy.

Actual car u can try is transform kinda .. I mean car with 4 wheels with propeller inside the Wheel , I mean those Wheel will come out horizontaly and then small Propeller ( husban x4 kind) inside those Wheel. Those wheels from outside will work as propeller protectors and Motors as axel when its car.
Then you will need switch to transform. single shaft mechanical assembly will take those wheels out and another switch to make them horizontal .

9 ch receiver . need 4 micro  motors  for Drone, 1 micro for Car, 2 micro servo for transform and 1 for Left right function.

dost all are just thoughts . if you serious then all the best.

still I feel it may not thrill like heli or Plane. Lot of investment.

buy drone and enjoy flying with First video.  :)

So is this possible if I reduce the weight of the car around 300g and can the car flyvif its weight is 400g

Subbu, Can I know the weight of your RC car? and post some pica of it.

Edit : hah ! your last post came in b/w...

well if your car weighs only 400Gm, you can defenitly make a flying car with it...
pls post some pics of your car.

thank u for ur helpful suggestions I will surely make this model . but which kind of quadcopter shall i use to make that fly . i mean if i need to control the Rc car and the quadcopter with single remote is this possible that in the circuit board of the quadcopter and the rc car shall be rooted to together that can be flied to together??

Please define the car and you can use thrust vectoring for the best results in both arial and surface modes  like tilting the rotors and diffrential thrust on the 2 motors . Best of luck.
