--- Quote from: Gyrre on 24 Aug 2019, 05:42 ---Come to think of it, if May got the flight prototype, Emily could probably make it fully functional and get to drop by Union Robotics.

Though, that begs the question as to the method of flight. Astroboy style rocket feet, wings and jet feet, insect-mimetic wing pack (beetle or otherwise), or even just a rotor prop.

Either that or Hannelore puts in a good word for May with her Dad’s AI R&D.

I doubt May will get a Seeker style chassis (she's definitely no Starscream), but it might very well be an anime reference that may or may not temporarily break Marigold's and/or Dale's brains.

EDIT: I suppose I should state that I assume any sort of transforming chassis May got wouldn't really be ridable for adult humans unless it her a go-kart, mo-ped, or motorcycle. Anything else would likely be a largish model-sized version that could reasonably transform in to a vaguely humanoid form that was probably 6ft (1m) or shorter.

Angry-dorito May would be kind of hilarious at only 4ft tall.  If May got to choose, she might go for the TFPrime version.

RC airplanes can get fairly realistic and large. If (and that's a big 'if') May got something like that, it'd probably have a wing span no more than a meter (3ft) across and a humanoid form no more than twice Pintsize's height. And, this would be a prototype that didn't work right, so it'd probably be stuck in the humanoid form.

There's also the possibility somebody tried to do a better version of this (below) with a Power Wheels like toy.
//www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMxKEHw2vyoI know, I know. But it's the shortest vid I found with live footage.

EDIT: forgot to link to wikipedia, and (hopefully) better explaining myself.
EDIT 2: metric misconvertion correction and highlighting text

Tova:
You might want to check your metric to imperial/imperial to metric conversions, there...
