ZZR have a bad rep on Kickstarter - hence my cynicism about it seeing the light of day 
Remember the Hover 2? 
Like the look of this,if it ever gets into production! 4k,30 fps 3 axis camera,and 50 mins of flight time,could definitely be interested…

Don’t really see any benefit to 2 motors, it will still take the same amount of energy\power to lift X weight off the ground, as a well known engineer said “Ye cannae change laws of physics”. Likely not really saving much weight as those 2 motors will be each much bigger than the ones using 4 less powerful ones.
Sure it may do 50 mins with a big enough battery just like all the others would also manage with the right set of battery\motor mods.
Also assuming it controls forward\backward motion at least by relying on weight transfer of some type I would expect it to be much less stable in a turbulent air situation than a quad.
Looks like a bit of a one off gimmick to get some money in and never deliver.

Agreed. Additionally he gear train that is involved for the two motors to drive the props is both a way to sap power and also a complication that could be a source of weakness.
The camera is fairly run of the mill so no USP there.
Released February $999
Looks excellent 50 min flight time wow
Just clearing the tumbleweed from this thread.
It’s been a minute…
“7 kilometer transmission distance, fly as high and far as you’d like.”
That would be nice.
I really thought this concept drone had ended up as vapourware, but according to DroneDJ it will be released this Thursday, but with a higher price tag than anticipated.
Being a fan of the weird and quirky it appeals to my senselessability but due to the many delays this project has suffered I fear it won’t make a dent in DJI’s plans for world domination.

The drive to the props doesn’t appear to be geared - the gear bit swivels the complete motor & prop
I’d still be worried about its durability though - one iff gear and it’ll crash
