Currently, the maximum flying time for the latest prototype is around 10 minutes, powered by six micro-gas turbines. When the commercial version is released, you can expect to shell out about $250,000 USD. However, it can reach altitudes of up to 2000 feet in its current state, but it’s recommended that one travel no further than 10 to 13 feet above the ground.
