It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

- 2 x120w solar panels, expected battery charge in summer 20-30miles, 10-20 in winter.
- 37 mile total range
- can be charged normally
- 2x 750w motors for hill climbing.
- 20mph max speed
- has a cargo spot in the middle the size of a bagpack you can access by dropping the side panel.
The article said the size of a carry-on luggage, so a bit bigger than a backpack.
indeed have not seen anything like it before... are current solar panels able to handle that kind of wear and tear though? Also seems uncomfortable
Vertically mounted panels and parked outside in the street? It will not even start charging. Then they have the side panel open downwards, what a missed opportunity: rotate it the other direction and the solar cells can be optimally directed to the sun.

And then it also can fly.
