    I also think it is just ground effect keeping it in the air.

    Would hate to fall off (into the rotors).

    looks like a  hoover craft without the skirt.

    The flightlog link provided by Brent says that take-off torque is a problem. I wonder is they are using counterrotating props?

    According to the blog no stabilization or software. That would probably only be possible in ground effect.

    We've been working with Chris Malloy/AU to create APM controlled hoverbike from his original Hover bike. Let's see if that will see daylight someday :)

    I can only imagine how insanely loud that thing would be, very cool too! Reminds me of the storm trooper hover bikes from Star Wars.
