I see you've posted a nice video on YouTube. Too bad it's probably going to take a good while before this thing is viable, as cool as it is.

I think we would need a revolution in batteries for this thing to work. It can happen, we have seen weirder stuff before...



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

Nothing new. Plenty of companies working on prototypes for flying vehicles even.

Some examples:

Also if people honestly think that that bike will be left with exposed blades so close to the person flying it in the final version then you have no clue what a prototype is, Use some common sense before bagging stuff out,

In fact the production model will have protections towards the inside, to protect pilot and passengers, and exposed blades outside, to merrily chop bloody peasants.

Yer I read that the other week. I am more thinking mainstream a quiet one and not these loud blades lol. noise cancelling features need to be added. 



 

 

Hovercrafts will never replace today's cars. It will never be more efficient to waste a lot of energy to keep you suspended in the air than to just use all the energy to create forward motion. (And no, this isn't comparable to planes... planes are used because they can achieve really high speeds, which they can partially because they are flying at a much higher altitude, thus avoiding a lot of air resistance that we meet at ground level.)
