I’m so excited about these. I think the coolest thing would be exploring areas that are hard to hike to. But I really want a good safety story. Maybe it needs airbags all around to turn you into a giant beach ball if something goes wrong? Or at least a lot of redundancy.

I think user error is a much biggest risk than technical failure. Unless you can make the jetpack prevent you from doing stupid things, like Airbus airplanes which disallow the pilot going outside the safety envelope. Maybe you can have a safety mode, which doesn't allow you going over 5 m height and 30 km/h speed, or something like that.

  Restricting to under 5m height is much less safe than restricting to only over 10m height except at specific landing sites. I can't imagine you'd ever want that restriction.
