The Whirly-Putter is a two-seater old-fashioned flying machine. A natural evolution from our popular Aero-Putter, the Whirly-Putter incorporates a number of advances and improvements. Propulsion and lift are provided by means of three propellers, driven by a powerful sealed-action clockwork motor. This motor uses advanced internal energy-conversion mechanisms which convert actual raw SL drama into useful kinetic energy. The abundance of free SL drama energy throughout the grid ensures that the Whirly-Putters will never, ever require recharge or refueling. The Whirly-Putter flies somewhat faster than the Aero-Putter, and offers a better view of the surroundings. As an added bonus, it is 100% environmentally friendly, as no combustive fuels are consumed whatsoever.
Controlling the Whirly-Putter is very easy. Forward and Back buttons run the motor in forward or reverse, while the Left and Right buttons turn the Aero-Putter as you would expect. The Up/Down keys let you gain or lose altitude. You can also 'slide' the Whirly-Putter from side to side using shift-left and shift-right.
The Whirly-Putter Personal was designed to be a small and whimsical two-person vehicle, ideal for casual touring around. It was not designed for tearing up the skies at 100 miles an hour. It will allow the owner or others in the same group to pilot it, any avatar may ride as a passneger. If you are looking for a ride for your island / estate / resort which will allow any avatar to pilot, please look at our Whirly-Putter Rezzer product.
If you would like to take the Whirly-Putter for a test-drive, come visit the Waikiti Mall at Waikiti Island, where we have a rezzer set up next to the Marina.
