DeLorean Motor Company announced this week at TechCrunch Disrupt in San Francisco that it will enter the Airspeeder International Series as constructor of the United States team. The new DeLorean Airspeeder Team becomes the first American constructor in the championship and is scheduled to make its race debut when the 2026–27 season opens in November.

Airbus and Kratos completed the first flight of the U740 Valkyrie on October 12, 2026, from a test facility in Northern Europe, confirming the program remains on schedule for a combat ready collaborative combat aircraft by 2029. The aircraft lifted off with rocket assistance that removed any need for a runway, then performed maneuvers at several altitudes while reaching speeds up to Mach 0.8 and accepting changes to its mission plan in the air. All planned objectives were met on this initial European sortie, which used an airframe already proven in American testing since the XQ-58A first flew in 2019.

Apple’s first dedicated cases for its folding phone reached store shelves today, the same day preorders opened for the device itself. Buyers who secured an iPhone Duo for delivery next week can walk out with protection already in hand, even as phone stock thins and shipping dates stretch into January for many configurations. Two options sit on the racks: a $79 Case two-part shell and a $129 Folio with a built-in stand.

A second screen can change how a laptop feels during long sessions of writing, spreadsheets, or video calls, and the InnoView 15.6 inch IPS portable monitor, priced at $49.99 (was $60), delivers that change in a package thin enough to slide beside a notebook in most bags. Measuring roughly a quarter-inch thick and weighing a couple of pounds with its included cover, the unit travels without demanding its own separate case or adding noticeable bulk to a daily carry. Once open, the matte IPS panel sits at 1920 by 1080 resolution with 178 degree viewing angles, so text stays readable and colors hold steady even when the screen sits off to one side of a laptop or leans back at an angle on a small table.
