This week, footage of Joby Aviation’s S4-T eVTOL surfaced, demonstrating the aircraft’s seamless transition for a single uninterrupted flight. It lifted directly off the ground on its rotors, then switched a switch (figuratively speaking) and began relying on its wings for lift, gliding around without incident.
Red Bull pilot Dario Costa lets go of the controls on his trusty Zivko Edge 540 and watches the cargo train thunder into the distance at an incredible 120 km/h (75 mph). On February 15th, 2026, near the Turkish town of Afyonkarahisar, Costa does the unthinkable by landing on the last container, riding out a tumultuous stretch of turbulent air, and powering back out in a single smooth move. No one had ever accomplished the feat of landing and taking off from a moving train in one go.
Tom Stanton has spent years fiddling with many strange flying machines. His current idea cleverly updates a traditional toy. Rubber band planes have been around forever, storing energy in twisted bands that then spin a propeller. The problem is that they must be wound up for several minutes merely to produce a short burst of flight. Stanton sought to create a flying machine that was faster, more practical, and could be built with easily accessible components.
Xshift created a modular racing dash box for simulators that simply clicks together like a set of puzzle pieces, each held in place by a magnet. Each element has its own set of controls and readouts, and they all connect to a central unit for stability and data collection. The end result is a fully equipped control panel that is just as detailed as a real rally vehicle cockpit.
Chargers are often tucked into drawers and bags because most of us simply plug them in and forget about it, but Anker’s Nano 45W Smart Charger, priced at $27.99 (was $40), is different. Travelers are constantly looking for gear that does not take up too much room, and the Nano is a game changer. It’s small enough to put in a pocket or a carry-on, yet it delivers an impressive 45 watts of power via a single USB-C port. The prongs fold up in two directions.
SNK and Plaion introduced an all-new NEOGEO AES+ console, allowing aficionados of the original hardware to play their old favorites in spectacular high definition on current screens. This console hits stores on November 12 and is available for preorder right now through the official website.
One developer modified a popular 3D slicing tool, allowing conventional 3D printers to spew out items in a variety of colors from just four spools. To do this, the software divides the item into extremely thin layers and then determines the exact pattern to mix and match these layers to achieve the required hue. Users select a color, and the software performs the rest, determining the optimal sequence and layer ratio to ensure the color is visible throughout the print.
Set in neon-lit 1993, the new Street Fighter film follows Ryu and Ken, formerly best friends but now estranged, as they are brought back together by the mysterious Chun-Li. Some nefarious powers lurk in the shadows of the World Warrior Tournament, compelling the couple to confront each other as well as some unpleasant memories from their past that they thought they’d forgotten.
DJI’s Osmo Pocket 4 was announced in China today as the long-awaited successor to the incredibly popular Pocket 3, featuring a number of upgrades that sharpen image quality, make the whole thing a lot easier to operate, and provide the kind of stability you rely on on a daily basis. This camera’s 1-inch CMOS sensor has been upgraded to provide fourteen stops of dynamic range and ten-bit D-log color.
