The team started off with the idea of creating a vehicle to be sold as a flying motorcycle. That morphed into what they say looks like the head of a snake, according to University of Kansas team leader Lauren Schumacher. Hence, it's the Mamba with style, design and vertical lift .
Hexacopter
Mamba is a winning flying snake. It's a hexacopter with 6 ducted fans to enable it to hover. To move forward, 2 aft ducts provide thrust.

Team Mamba has put safety as its' #1 component for design. They think one failure or death could shut down this newly emerging industry of personal flying vehicles.
