Clever toy. No practical application. Potentially very dangerous - dogs and other animals will be killed or maimed.

If he had any stones, he’d get up to a few thousand feet and fly several miles.

My guess is that the device relies significantly upon Ground Effects.

I beg to differ. The military has a keen interest in this. Question is how long can it keep a fully equipped solder afloat. Forget using cars to get around. If it can keep an individual up dot 30 minutes, comutting to work just got a whole lot faster.

Flying too high to mow the grass.

LOL... The military has no interest in this unless you are speaking about France.

Could be useful for clearing weeds and liberal protests.

Manned drone is an oxymoron. Drones are unmanned.

I worked on a Flymo (?) gas lawnmower in the `80s. Believe this one is electric. Image and video hosting by TinyPic Operating it was something like walking a Rottweiler using its tail as a leash.
