"Another product of physics manipulation."
IMPORTANT NOTE: This vehicle is highly experimental, and works best on flat pavement. Also, use camera 1 or the cockpit view.
Interestingly, the MonoWheel MX1 isn't at all related to a bicycle, car, or motorcycle. Instead, its closest relative is the hovercraft, specifically the Hoverblade U prototypes. The monowheel shares the low traction of the gravity manipulating hoverwheels, and even has a few hoverwheels for stability. The craft also has a mass-vectored CoM.
Controls:
Yaw to turn. Throttle for engines.
VTOL up for parking brakes.
Brake for brakes.

@bjac0 oh
@Daviwavy it could be unmanned
Noice
Isn't this too slim for a vehicle?
I don't think the people can go on it.
No offense
The BeardedBeast needs to put this in a video.
@Mumpsy Interesting!
Cool!
