Uh-huh uh-huh. :yep:
My only worry is the rollover factor. I'd think it would be more stable with the propellers above. But then, I don't know anything. :sunny:

Prop wash would likely blow you off the thing if the props were above.:doh:
The little drone seemed stable enough.
I don't think I'd want to be flyingthe thing at 9k feet without a parachute and a tether/seat belt.:timeout: But, then it'd be my luck to have the motors conk out, use the chute and then land in some power lines.:huh: Bzzzt!

No props on that bike. It's all antigrav and pulse pusher.

Imagine this:
You riding your motorbike on the freeway, you are speeding a little more than allowed. Suddenly you hear a siren behind you.
Should I stop or should I try to outrun the Police?
You chose to outrun them, you press the speeder to the max and still the police is behind you.
Then you press a little red button the bike seems to reduce in speed and a nozzle open below and your motorbike raise a little bit above the ground and then your wheels turns 90 degrees and becomes like rotator(like those in the movies) and then you fly away.
On the ground the police are dropping their chin.
