Video Purports To Show Successful Hover Bike Test Flights

Posted by Soulskill on from the bumpercars:-the-next-generation dept.

Zothecula writes "Videos released by California-based tech research company Aerofex appear to show successful test flights of a prototype hover bike that gains lift from two large ducted rotors. Aeroflex claims its hover bike allows the pilot intuitive control over pitch, roll and yaw without need of artificial intelligence, flight software or electronics of any kind."
