There are two mini engines on each arm and one on the back allowing you to control your movement just by moving your hands. The fuel is also stored in the backpack and the suit has 1050 bhp in total.

The suit took months to develop and many of the parts are 3D printed.

Selfridges are selling nine suits and have a VR experience in their London store available to try out. Experience days with the suits can also be purchased.
