If you do some research you will read that it failed flight testing dismally and is being redesigned at present.

I think the flying motorcycle with the telescopic wings has a far greater change of large scale success.

Hmm. I think they missed an L somewhere towards the end of that name!

XXX,

That's not the conclusion my research comes up with. They seem quite happy with the proof of concept aircraft, and are building a "Beta" prototype, certainly with modifications, but "Failed dismally" doesn't seem to fit what has been said.

Where does your info come from?
