Well, I have faith in my source. So I say it's real!

Entirely possible with turbines,
My concern is the throttle lag issue?

I'm yet to see a turbine that has no lag with the dropping and pickup of throttle changes.

So want this to be real, looks very cool but not sure how long I would last  :happy:
Skyhunter, Drak, Mini Talon, Z3, Z2 and 250 Vortex. :overexcited:

In fairness the guy is experienced with the pressure build up of water through a hose so jet spool up time isn't going to introduce anything new. If this is real, there's no flight controller, or rather the flight controller is the pilot's body movement.

That's a good point.

It does look real but I agree I'd like to see an actual takeoff and landing.


Maybe it's a complete ballache to get in the air due to ground effect??

I liked the spec sheet ...

Can reach up to 10,000ft with a 10 minute run time.

How long does it take to get up to 10,000ft and more importantly, the 10,000ft return journey :laugh:
