Only need it to fit 1 person in cockpit with glass dome for windshield and instrument reading board to hold portable gps system and CB radio. Preferably a more modern design.

The problem is not going up but moving around in the air and then landing.  I guess I could make the body move like a Frisbee but that could take years to actually come up with the right design.  As for jet engines you might want to consider them not being micro but built into the vehicle so where people only see the bottoms.  As for trying to land something like that I have no idea.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Add your own answer in the comments!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by ampersans Question by blakedellefave: Can ANYone help me design a UFo type vehicle with jet engines providing vertical takeoff without rotary blades?
