VertiPod 2, AirBuoyant's flying platform/flying car design, has gone airborne. We only did low flights, mostly in ground effect, and learned a lot. We will be making some mods based on first flights, but overall, things are good.
Video is below (yeah, that's me as the "test dummy")
The VP2 will serve as both a revenue source for LunaTrex, as well as a lunar lander equipment test simulator. We will be testing video equipment, transmission resources, and other systems for a variety of variables.
We will look forward to sharing more VP2 progress as we go forward. We are hoping to offer the VP2 as a homebuilt kit later this year or early next year, depending on safety and prudent business decisions.
