The thing splits the very air around it, spitting and screaming like some alien beast. It&#8217;s wicked. The Dragonfly can hit 115 miles per hour and reach an altitude of 13,000 feet. With an 18.5-gallon fuel tank, it can fly for 50 minutes at 40 mph. An add-on 16-gallon tank extends range to 100 miles. The whole thing only weighs 234 pounds and can carry 500 pounds. Amazingly, the rocket-copter experiences less vibration and is easier to fly than a conventional helicopter.\u00a0The Dragonfly is currently being tested, but should be available for purchase in the near future. Expected cost? Can you really put a price on something this awesome?<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a title=\"Swisscopter\" href=\"http:\/\/www.swisscopter.us\/\" >Swisscopter<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/W3fP4HoRmerFwBytK8Q3iosbsvA\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/W3fP4HoRmerFwBytK8Q3iosbsvA\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/W3fP4HoRmerFwBytK8Q3iosbsvA\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/W3fP4HoRmerFwBytK8Q3iosbsvA\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the future, I will fly to work suspended below a whirling, hissing disc of 600-degree Celsius steam.\u00a0The Dragonfly SF1 rocket-copter has bullet-shaped rocket engines at the tips of its rotors that dissociate a mixture of 70 percent hydrogen peroxide into furious jets of water vapor.
