    Thanks for the info, Chris.

    Do you know if they have anything with the same powerplant and a gyroscopic flight leveler?

    I like the thrust, but I need just a little more vertical lift than the one in the video.

    Feel free to PM me. Thanks in advance for your response ;)

    Huh...that's funny...I was just sitting at my dinner table eating some chow when all of a sudden this "thing" crashes into my yard. I look out and say "Marge, I think a fake jet pack that's actually a dual fan pack just landed in our yard". How weird is that??? Chris, if you can identify it with the make, model number, port of origin, serial number, size, molecular structure, and precise weight, I'll ship it right back to ya!

    See....all that wiz bang stuff adds to the cost. To keep cost down, certain things are omitted. Gyro stabalizer? DONT NEED IT! Engines that run the whole time? BAH! Have a shitload of thrust that dumps in 2 seconds, and you keep cost down, and maximize acceleration.

    All good points.

    OK. I'll go with your suggestions and streamline expenses.

    One more question:

    Who makes the best crash helmet?

    TIA

    Make sure you install a throttle body spacer on there first. You have to maximize MPG in this economy.
