The prompt
Use only a reference clip and a photo you have permission to use. Do not supply footage from a manufacturer, a news site or someone else’s post.
Replace only the hero vehicle in the reference video with the vehicle from the photo. Keep the ramp, the smoke, the lighting, the camera and the timing exactly as in the reference. The vehicle comes over the top of the ramp, stops and hovers in mid-air, then descends slowly on jets firing straight down and lands in smoke. It keeps its body shape, paint colour, wheels, windows and lights in every frame. Exactly one vehicle. No wings, rockets, flames, text or extra vehicles.
Why each part is there
- “Replace only the hero vehicle” stops the model from redrawing the whole scene.
- Spelling out the stop and the downward jets is what makes the hover read as a hover instead of a jump.
- Naming body shape, paint, wheels, windows and lights is what keeps your car looking like your car.
- “Exactly one hero vehicle” prevents a second, duplicated car appearing in the air.
Where it usually breaks
- The body warps as the car leaves the ground: use a photo with the whole car and a side or three-quarter view.
- Wheels melt or spin into discs: use a sharper photo and a reference clip with a slower descent.
- The colour drifts to the reference car’s colour: name the paint colour in the prompt.
- Wings or flames appear: keep the “no wings, rockets, flames” line, and regenerate.
The shortcut
AI Flying Car pairs the prompt, the stunt template and your photo automatically. Upload one photo and download a 10-second vertical MP4; there is nothing to write and no reference clip to source.
