As young boys, how often did we dream of speeding through our neighborhood like Luke Skywalker did in the forests of Endor on a speederbike? Probably way too often, at least in my case.
But now that dream may be one step closer to reality, thanks to the “Tandem-Duct Aerial Vehicle” fromAerofex.
The company isn’t going into mass production just yet, so put your checkbook away, but they envision these hoverbikes as a development platform for robotic drones for lifting and carrying cargo. Currently, the Aerofex machine is being tested at a top speed of 30 mph and a max height of 15 feet above the ground.
Follow along with their progress at the Aerofex Flight Log.
