Copterpack

This carbon fibre drone backpack is taking off.

There have been a few working examples of mankind’s fabled jetpack over the last few years, but we’ll never turn down an opportunity to cover gadgets that let us bipedal-pigs fly. Details on the CopterPack are pretty thin on the ground, so other than a YouTube video of the big drone actually lifting a human over Palm Beach in Sydney, we can’t really report on details like when this Aussie invention will hit shelves or how many multiples of your annual income it will cost. What we can say is that its dual rotor system is pretty amazing at pivoting and maneuvering.
