For those of you wondering what to get me for Christmas — hell, for the next twenty Christmases — wonder no more.
SoloTrek XFV is a brand new kind of flying machine that you step on, strap on, and fly. This ultra-compact aircraft lets you takeoff vertically, dash to your destination, then land literally anywhere. Using readily available fuel, SoloTrek can hover for up to 2 hours, reach speeds of up to 70 knots, and traverse distances of up to 120 nautical miles. SoloTrek has been designed to be safe, easy to fly, and easy to maintain. This practical solution to individual VTOL flight holds promising applications in the military, paramilitary and civilian markets.
Oh, mama!
