    Putting the human body into the plane of rotation of the propellers is a HUGE design flaw in terms of deadliness. NEVER take an aircraft design seriously unless they know better than to do that.

      Not only the pilot is at risk, anyone in the vicinity when landing or take off is at risk, these rotors are just fast rotating knives

      No pilot training on full scale aircraft of any kind. Sat in a full size helicopter and got it off ground into a hover under guidance of an instructor pilot on board.

    A real Blade Runner style roadable VTOL flying car is being developed called the Sky Chaser. It looks and drives like a Can-Am race car, flies both vertically like a drone and horizontally like a plane, and is even amphibian. It has no external wings or rotors and uses the body as a wing. It will be both manual and fully autonomous, and will be powered by a hydrogen fuel cell, giving it hours of range. It is the 1st of it's kind, a real Blade Runner style roadable flying car.

    These giant drones are only sort-of aircraft. Why? In the air, you are hanging on the fans. If the fan blades stop for whatever reason, the vehicle will fall like a rock. Much less becoming a glider like a standard winged aircraft losing power, these eVTOLS can't even auto-rotate like a helicopter. An extremely risky concept.

I dont. wdum no tilting, when literally all the wings inside cyclorotor turbine tilt. anything not worth it is called "professional" to get the price up.
