  1. Gas emittance... the internal seat probably rotates for directional aiming of the gas source and this augmentation is safely and effectively achieved. I am assuming the Scandinavian version will be released first due to pre existing language alignment - in this scenario all that the unit requires is a red occupant activated button that says "FART" or "FARTING"... The OH needs only to confer this... One would need to be prepared to learn at the minimum a couple of words in Dansk or Svensk, or even Nordsk to become a capable and intensive user... There should be a practice exam section in the rear of the OH with useful pre-exam revision "you say the word" questions such as; "I am ....ing my way around to you now" or "I will .... to work this morning".... but these questions may be in a scandinavian language as opposed to english presented here. "fart til dig nu!!! 😀"

  2. I think the cooling fan is bigger than you need.. Shy Cancel will never approve that. THEY are the only ones allowed to take people for a ride and they do it in SLOW motions.. Nev

  4. Actually nev they do, in the same way a helicopter's rotor does (A helicopter in forward flight uses less power to maintain height than it needs to do the same in the hover)

  6. Interesting how they see this thing being used. I like how the ambulance one drops off two paramedics who work on the injured person for a bit then slide her into the craft and send it off with only her on board. Who maintains her vitals on the way??

  7. I'll believe it when I see one operating in gusty conditions, The only way to get extra lift is to increase rotor speed. Too much lag in that to give precise control.

  8. Marty, it looks like they use a sort of "wobble drive" universal-joint setup in the driveshaft. This system simply tilts the rotors. They claim they're aiming for maximum simplicity and the minimum number of parts/components to stay aloft safely. Their cruise speed is a reputed 130kmh, and probably the interesting part is they are claiming "automatic flight", rather than "autonomous flight". They say that it will be many years before totally autonomous flight is possible and achievable, thus they're concentrating on automatic flight, using fixed flight paths, and pre-designated take-off and landing areas. This seems to indicate remote control of these e-copters. It looks like they're aiming at inner-city air-taxi type operations and cargo deliveries. https://www.flynow-aviation.com/
