Hi aditya, the video of the jumpjet shows very good reaction to disturbances. It could be interesting to add collision avoidance, such as sonar sensors, possibly altitude hold, camera for first person view, gps etc. Were you thinking of creating a new airframe based on jumpjet design and expanding on it, or just after market addons to jumpjet.
