So the Dubai police force has invested in $115,000 hoverbikes to bolster their...who the fuck knows. They can travel as 60mph and at 16 feet or higher. The video shows they look to need a little more practice but still pretty fucking wild. Lastly, they areproduced in California. Sorry no embed, someone can help. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sciencealert.com/hoverbikes-are-a-real-thing-now-and-nobody-even-noticed/amp

This sounds like a real bad idea

Looks like I’m sliding an application over to Dubai. 

Didn't Dallas sign up for those and some hover cars?

I highly doubt it. I think we’re starting a pilot drone program, though. 

10-25 min of flying time per charge

trying to visualize how they would be practical to use and for what situations for the police. can't come up with much. if you just happened to be in one of the situations you needed one you would have to have it there handy.

16 feet, and they only hover in the air?  Pass.

Now using those propeller blades as a weapon.  That'd be some street justice.

Cops in a totalitarian police state ruthlessly controlled by absolute dictator Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.

yeah, fuck those cops and the hover bikes they rode in on.

Do you need a pilots license? Can you fly them over populated areas? IMO, unless you have autonomy those things will never catch on to the mainstream population.

 I mean those are cool and all, but until competent drone style flying legislation can be established in courts and taught for a length of time, Ima just gonna stick to moto paragliding. 

Ill just watch and learn while all the other idiot falling out of the sky and crashing into office builds show and teach.

How will you know who to shoot when they are all brown and rich?

Lame. Try again. 

So a riding lawn mower with no wheels. Aggy will have to have these so they can mow the grass where no human can tread.

 

 

I wonder what happens when the rider falls off and into the blades.

 

 

Sounds like a great way to crop-dust the populus with nasty falafel fart clouds.

Fake news. There’s no grass in Dubai. 

I can't believe there's not some sort of shroud around the blades for safety and efficiency.  Also being limited to 16' pretty much forces you to take street routes if you are in town, and you better stay low to avoid power lines.

Over/under on when they're all grounded from lack of maintenance?

They'll be fine as long as they don't get sand in the engines.
