How would a flying Tesla

How would a flying Tesla Roadster actually work?

Tesla says the new Roadster’s Rocket version uses 10 cold-gas thrusters running on compressed air. I wanted to see what that might look like inside, so I built it.

Six carbon tanks, one air hub, ten nozzles. Peel off the side panel, launch all three versions, or fly it by hand and turn it on its corner nozzles. Every number on screen comes from the same physics model.

The layout is my estimate, not Tesla’s design. On these numbers, a full tank keeps it in the air for about 4 seconds.
