Ever have one of those boyhood dreams that said 'I want one...!'

For those of you that enjoy the individual that goes out and just starts building some, gets the early prototype part way completed identifies and learns from his mistakes and starts into the next prototype, then this hover bike project may be for you.

I don't know the guy and I'm not affiliated with him in any way but I did find the concept interesting and well presented.

Brass_Machine:
Very interesting Kenneth.

I will admit, this is a project I have had in mind for several years. It is one of those 'as soon as my shop improves' ideas.

Nice to see you back Kennth.  :thumbup:

Interesting concept. I'd be a little scared to ride one of these knowing other are out there too. They'd be running into each other if this type of transportation ever got popular. People have trouble driving in two dimensions. Can you imagine them trying to drive in a three dimensional plane?

I do hope it takes off (pun intended) though.

I have plans for a hover craft using two engines. One for upward thrust and one for forward. It's another "round-tuit" project.  :med:

Well, magic keeps Harry Potter on top of his broomstick, but on a device like that I'd be worried that with the  weight of a muggle like me sitting on top, the thing might invert and head groundwards under power-assisted gravity.
