OK, so this is cool. Take small drone type technology and scale it up to fit yourself. I love the Yoga ball to cushion the landing. The modular system for the animation to make transporting it is cool too. As battery and motor technology continue to improve I can actually see this going somewhere. No necessarily thousands of people commuting to work in them, but as a recreational alternative to microlites etc.

I'd certainly trust a bunch of little motors over one big one.

Auto rotation may be an issue though. You wanna stay low and keep the yoga ball

I would NOT want that many sharp blades spinning in the same plain as my hootus!

Slow ninja edit. Don't post while sleepy!

No helmet, no blade guard, how does it take off with the weight of his nads?
