Chinese firm reveals self flying MEGADRONE taxi

That would be way cool. It would get you to your destination in a fraction of the time as a taxi would, and no need to tip the cabbie....

But...does it have a gimbal?

 

[Chuck]

The gimbal release has been delayed....

Looks really cool, price will probably be astronomical, I'd love to see some real-world tests of it's redundancy, but my biggest concern would be bailing out if one needed to do so, with a parachute of course - there's little chance of getting past those propellers with all your appendages in tact.

Ultralight aircraft with chutes generally keep you in the aircraft. Those spinning props would still be an issue, though, if not for cutting, for entanglement.
