World’s First Fully-Manned Hoverbike

RELATED:
Click to unmute Flying with a Scorpion-3 hoverbike is as simple as riding a regular bike. This single-seat quadcopter was dessigned to resemble a compact dirt bike and runs on electricity. It can reach 30 miles per hour and ascend to 33 feet (which is as high, as this inflatable Minion that caused chaos in Ireland). The developers still need to work on some safety issues, but their claim that “the future is closer than it seems” looks optimistic.

it's still a prototype, covering the blades might make it too heavy to fly..?

Most people are too scared to ride motorcycles. What makes you think they will try this? Guaranteed this will be a more difficult vehicle to pilot. Not to mention slower and more dangerous.
