There are two types of flying cars integrated and combined with a drone. The combined with a drone type has the advantage of being able to run directly on existing roads by detaching a drone. Therefore, we developed the first prototype of combined type with a takeoff weight of 0.1 kg in 2021. We developed the second prototype and the third prototype with a takeoff weight of 2.5 kg in 2022. By changing the place of the drone motors from the arms to the top of the 200-mm newly inserted extension support rods, the drone has stronger ability to resist wind and improved flight stability．Furthermore, it was proved by flow simulation that the lift of the second prototype was increased by 4.0% with the above changing the place of the drone motors.
