Looks cool. but would be more impressive if the showed it more than 3 feet off the ground.
been tinkering with the idea of doing a lawn chair flight, FAA be damned.

I wonder if it does do more than 3ft off the ground though?

Range 31.5 miles (at max speed of 63 mph as required by FAA part 103).
Hover in ground effect 8000 ft (estimated)
Hover above ground effect 8000 ft (estimated)


Standard Equipment Flight and Engine displays
Harness
Ballistic Parachute
Retractable undercarriage
Energy absorbing undercarriage.


Why would you need a chute if you don't get over 3ft?

And LOL out of my price range for now!

Purchase Price: US$ 100,000 plus any applicable sales taxes, plus adjustment for inflation as measured by the consumer price index.

They have a huge tarp up to block wind, so anywhere with wind you probably are fucked. And they need 2 dudes running along side of it to make sure he goes where he's supposed to.

I foresee some accidents in the future.
