Kyxz Mendiola, a flying drone car builder and professional hip-hop dancer, flew the Filipino-made hoverboard over the SBMA Freeport Zone for 2.89 kilometers at a height of 30 feet, longer than the current record of 2.2 kilometers, according to a report by Raffy Tima on 24 Oras Weekend on Saturday. The hoverboard, done by Star 8 Green Technology Corporation, ran on battery. Total flight time was seven minutes and 22 seconds. Sa flight data namin, we actually got 2.89, wow, kilometers. So more than what we were expecting. Our goal was only 2.5 kilometers, Mendiola said.
