Would be great to pick that guy's brain on that project.
If the motor moving the tail is powered by air? (You've got a lot of it in high pressure... might as well use that energy) that and batteries weigh a bit...
even the LiIon ones add a lot of weight if you pack them in there.

I think it's actually peddle driven.

That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. But I think a Mirage drive would be considerably more efficient.

Do it Jim, put those mad inventor skills to work.

Maybe Malibu Kayaks could talk to him and find out how he made his capsule water tight and apply that method to their hatches.
