At least it's powered by a twin. ;^)

oops, make that four of them!

Looks like the learning curve would be short and steep.

I want one!

Deafness then decapitation. Noisey bugger but looks like a total blast. The part they left out of the video is where the guy throws his arms up in triumph and the blades chop them off like a knife through butter.

So what happens if at the end of your 30 minutes you are at 1000 meters straight up. Auto-rotation 12 ft into the ground.

Hmm, traffic in 3 dimensions.

We can just imagine swarms of these fluttering over the LA basin. It would turn a two-hour commute into 30 minutes. How fun would it be to travel above the 405, laughing your tush off at the swarms of poor saps sitting in their car-prisons?

Of course it would be no fun in very cold or rainy places, or in thunderstorms. We imagine an Aerostich would be of great interest to a helicopter pilot, too!

What's the useful load after fuel? Looks way fun.
