Perhaps I’m just being cynical, however (I’ve also followed Moller because I want my goddamned flying car already, but that’s also seen years and years without anything concrete).

Yeah, Zenn was supposed to be on the road a couple of years ago, as I recall.
I doubt they’ve solved the energy density thing. The physics is harsh, I gather, for attempts to hold charges beyond a certain size stable. They bring out the quantum sappers and start tunnelling around to see what they can blow up.

I don’t see any relevance to FF. The cycle rate of current capacitors is way beyond anything the rest of the rig could handle.

As for your flying cars, Elon Musk has already set his subconscious to work on the next project after he gets TeslaMotors and SpaceX operational: VTOL sub-orbital electric-powered aircraft.

But would you trust your life to other drivers of flying cars, if they weren’t so computer-locked in flight paths that they couldn’t swerve or dive into you? And you into them? And should I trust you or them to fly over my house? Sez who?
