Big deal, it looks like a drunk guy straddling chaise lounge at a BBQ. Wake me up when Michael J. Fox's hover board from Back to the Future comes on the market.

It reminds me of my pilot instructor that said you can make anything fly it's landing safely that is the real challenge. As long as you have enough thrust, it will fly. The real question is how stable will it fly and how fast and controllable will it come down.



What this guys has to do next is put some wings on it.:biggrin:

I think it's fucking awesome when I see the human spirit to improve, innovate, invent is still alive and well. Hoverbike would be awesome. I'd finally get to wear my t-shirt that says "if you can read this the bitch fell off the back".

Good news is that according to the movie we only have to wait another 4 years for those.

And if that doesn't make you feel old...
