Hi
B-Unstoppable is the first in the World hybrid Tank-Quadcopter, with patented solution. Due to the caterpillar tracks B-Unstoppable achieves outstanding performance in driving across difficult terrain.
It can turn on the spot, which is extremely useful in limited space, which provides 360 view for on-board camera. When obstacles become too big, it can simply take-off and fly over them. The model weighs only 84 g, therefore it can be operated nearly everywhere, without the worry of falling down and causing damages to others or model itself.

Another use is:
Exploration Vehicle: that can be used in limited space for the military, fire forces, search and rescue team. Where vision from the sky is not enough and you have to travel through narrow gaps, enter buildings, tunnels to get into other location.
Full-scale vehicle: a future sport could be born here as B can provide amazing performance in the air as well as on the ground. Sports such as motor-cross, but with more interesting tracks can create a new generation of extreme sporting events which were not possible before.
Full-scale rescue vehicle: that could get to the site of an accident before a helicopter or ambulance. Given that B can drive as well as fly, there is no need for helicopter landing site.
The answer is: why do we have so many cars? if we can fly everywhere
I have one question? Why would anyone want to drive somewhere instead of fly? This looks interesting but totally non-functional! Other than a kids toy what could this be used for?
This looks like real fun! I am amazed of the very small weight , congratulations.
Gary McCray Thank you for supportive comment !
First or not, it is a really nice design and seems to have plenty of performance in both the driving and flying modes.
I think the plastic geared, brushed motors limit its practical longevity quite a bit, but the price is very reasonable on KickStarter for what it is and I wish you lots of luck in getting to your goal.
Best Regards,
Gary
