Odd there are no ducts.

Most of the short video clips on their channel have music rather than audio of the flight, but a couple do seem to include the original audio. Difficult to tell how tamped down the volume is, however. It does seem like it’d be a fun little vehicle. It’s small enough that it might be truck-transportable, which – if the range and duration are adequate, claimed to have  a 20 minute flight time – could make it handy for search and rescue operations in forests and swamps and especially mountains and canyons and such. it is capable of being flown unmanned, which indicates that (again, assuming it has the endurance for it) it could be used to rescue reasonably intact individuals from the tops of burning buildings or out of canyons or off boats and the like.

It’s delivered as a half-built kit for a mere $92,000. The production run for 2022 is said to be sold out.
