TanTu Tech launches world's first consumer water-effect air cushion vehicle

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

TanTu Technology has unveiled the WaveFly 5X, the world's first consumer-grade, person-carrying water-effect air cushion vehicle. This new product extends the company's offerings from land-based transportation to water and low-altitude flight, addressing a gap in the consumer market for low-altitude economy products. The WaveFly 5X utilizes ground effect principles for low-altitude flight, allowing it to take off and land on water without specialized runways or complex flight approvals, and is designed for ease of use, requiring no professional pilot's license.
