Isn't that just a glorified hovercraft?

I would have thought so, I don't think it would be much use if it got too far off the ground...

What do they retail for?

They think... if it goes into mass production.. 30k each and they woould cap the flight height at 3m, although it can go as high as conventional helicopters.

It a vertical bladed helicoter rather than a hovercraft.

What stops it spinning around in circles?

john said...

black magic and corn starch.
