    awesome technology. the problem is the turbines. these are model jet engines and eventually one will shuck a blade or have an egt die etc and the result will be catastrophic. i have flown rc turbine jets since the 90's. the quality and reliability has greatly improved but at the end of the day the operating rpm is well north of 100,000 rpm and eventually a hick up will happen. if so, this system better have one great gyro on board to compensate. till then, it looks like a lot of fun.

    It sure beats the "rocket belts" from the 1960s!
