The Islander is an idea for a VTOL vehicle that would be used for sightseeing tours and transportation between islands. A multi- passenger copter and high speed boat. The transparent fuselage allows for unusual passenger viewing. Controls: VTOL rotates the motors from vertical to forward. The TRIM controls turns. The lift and speed are a combination of throttle and prop angle. It even has reverse. Full throttle for takeoff and then roll the motors toward horizontal to level ship and maximize forward velocity. Additional cameras .
