        Actually it's about a 30 minute ride and two hour charging. WooHoo!

          Yeah, the placement of the blades does seem a bit dangerous.

                You want to get into a device which you haven't seen actually work yet, made by an unregulated company with no history in flying more than a few grams, in a country known for manufacturing cheap knockoffs that catch fire...and then go up in the air in it? Good luck. When you next drive to work, count the number of disabled cars on the roadside. Now imagine each of these cars dropping 500 meters onto a random bit of city between your house and your work. If you're feeling extremely charitable, imagine each 1500kg vehicle gently parachuting onto your house roof or your kid's playground or the high-voltage transmission cables that go to your city.

                    Not only that, but think about the carnage when a hacker successfully takes control of one of these things and heads for a crowded sidewalk... No thanks, think I'll stick to 4 wheels on the ground...

                      You staying on the ground only makes you a target. Once our skies fill up with drones, we'll all need titanium umbrellas and fireproof raincoats. As Christopher Robin says, "Tut Tut. It looks like drone."

                        I still don't get why to be so excited about a flying vehicle with rotors, able to transport people. They already exist, they're called helicopters. This one just happens to have four rotors instead of two, placed differently.

                          Finally, someone invented the perfect vehicle for clearing brush, blowing leaves, and vehicular homicide. I can see the FAA and FTSB totally giving this a green light.
