And the battery is toast in 15 minutes. I expect a little longer flight time for 90k+.

Looks basically like a drone, large scale- pretty cool looking. With the right rillcabe, safety harnesses, and cushioning, even crashes might be about like F-1 where the driver can withstand tremendous crashes and still be ok. Shaken but fine.

Killer statement:
The flight endurance is pretty disappointing: an 85 kg (187 lb) pilot can expect just 15 minutes of airborne giggles before the battery needs to go back on the charger, presumably for a decent chunk of time. Fifteen minutes is a long time if you're holding your breath, but it's not a long time if you're trying to master and enjoy your new US$92,000 toy.

I would rather see something that uses directed thrust without massive props. That looks like a flying human blender.
Also — use fuel since it only lasts 15 minutes.

“a strong gust of wind and your toast.”
Does your toast include butter and jam?

It needs a Mr. Fusion power plant.
