The first test footage has emerged of an $800,000 flying motorbike that looks like it is straight out of Star Wars.

American company Volonaut recently released test footage of its ‘flying superbike‘. It is actually a personal aircraft with jet engines that looks like a bike in the sky.

However, it is still in the early stages of development. Meaning the unusual creation can only stay in the air for ten minutes at a time, for now at least.

The flying bike uses small jet engines, and it’s hoped it will make personal aviation more accessible.
