Hoversurf, the manufacturer behind the incredible technology, have built a single-seat aircraft capable of lifting a person in the sky with full passenger control.
https://www.hoversurf.com/


The Scorpion-3 merges a standard motorbike design with drone quad-copter technology to allow riders to manoeuvre in the air as if they were riding a bike





Creators say the Scorpion-3 can carry 19 stone in weight while hitting at speeds of 30 miles per hour and reach an altitude of 33 feet.

It can stay airborne for upto 27 minutes.

The quad-copter is available for $ 150,000.

An inbuilt safety mechanism limits the maximum speed and altitude of the aircraft in order to prevent accidents.
