Quadhopper
Stays close to ground, standing on lightweight wheels or "insect legs" | |
Human carrying and flown quadcopter that does not fly, but
rather reaches "neutral" weight. You then jump, hop, cycle, or
with another motor get it going on land, roads or sea.
Here, you can begin with this, then go from there ....

If there's no ground load, you won't be able to get any friction for propulsion. If you have a fan for propulsion, you've just described the hovercraft, which is Baked and WKTE. |
