Palmer Luckey β€” tech visionary from California β€” completed ground training in under 50 minutes before confidently taking the controls for his first low-altitude flights. A

@jetson_aero Those blades look to be about 1ft from the person's head. What is to stop someone from waving to a friend and getting their hand cut off?

@jetson_aero @grok what's the flight time for this? What fuel does it use?

@jetson_aero Interesting... What are the safety protocols for sudden power loss and and no flight control?

@jetson_aero 20 min of flight time πŸ˜‚ per charge

@jetson_aero The noise ffs

@jetson_aero @PalmerLuckey is a national treasure you need to put an emergency parachute on that thing.

@jetson_aero I fixed the sound. lol now it is a Jetsons car

@jetson_aero it looks like a child mincer. what kind of safety protocols prevent bystander injury?

@jetson_aero come on, couldn’t you make it sound like a jetson mobile?!

@jetson_aero I see Theo Von. Where is the so called "Palmer Luckey" ?

@jetson_aero well, Palmer did some interesting things in his short life... RIP

@jetson_aero Should have an automatic emergency parachute deployment if vertical drop occurs from prop failure

@jetson_aero What a piece of crap! How much MORE noise do you want to generate in today's world?

@jetson_aero These need to be extremely regulated the same way helicopters are because this is going to kill a pedestrian if its sold as easily as motorcycles are

@jetson_aero @Manhattva will be riding this within a month.

@jetson_aero Who else is slightly jealous. Shame. This will never be allowed in Australia. Anything over 25km/h the cops hate lol

@jetson_aero Definitely not sneaking up on anybody in that, loud as fuck but looks very easy to fly.

@jetson_aero @grok curious of a plan of action if I were to buy one of these and a bird were to strike one of the propellers. Will we still have full control of the unit and what if more than one propeller went out at the same time?

@jetson_aero How does it hold up with bird strikes?

@jetson_aero Why would you spend time making this? I literally had to turn off the video, it’s such a ghoulish device. In the long tail, any user of it WILL experience grisly injuries.

@jetson_aero Amazing we go all the way back to propellers lol Is anti-gravity too hard? How about Electromagnetism?

@jetson_aero It’s great that he got it. I suspect that is one of those toys that will lose its appeal relatively quickly.

@jetson_aero @grok Is this a real product? How much does it cost?

@jetson_aero How much?

@jetson_aero Love the concept. I wonder if there is a way to make them as quiet as a Honda Civic?

@jetson_aero I think these things are going to be flying around in the 2030s. Its a problem.

@jetson_aero Do you invent this just so guys can show off their massive balls πŸ€”

@jetson_aero Was that a 6 foot or 8 foot long pick up truck bed carrying that puppy away?

@jetson_aero All it needs is a parachute "in case". What is it about engineers that they don't think of this. Imagine the millions of people who would have not died if they would have put airplane body parachutes on single engine planes "in case".

@jetson_aero I’ve always wondered why the propellers for these things are never covered / protected. Like at least some sort of low weight / airflowy thing could def go on there

@jetson_aero No even to have a breathable shield covering the cockpit is super weird. Losing control, arms flailing, goodbye arms.

@jetson_aero Sorry, but that’s a guaranteed death trap allegedly

@jetson_aero Are we really this dumb?

@jetson_aero I’m sure the neighbors won’t be upset :)

@jetson_aero How much training would be expected before taking it to a higher altitude?

@jetson_aero That's really cool! I also now see Elon's point about flying cars.
