Ukusebenzisana phakathi kwe-BMW i, i-Designworks (umxhumanisi wokuklama kanye nesitudiyo sokuklama esiphethwe yi-BMW) kanye no-Peter Salzmann (i-BASE jumper kanye ne-Austrian skydiver) kuphumele ekwengezweni kwamathruster amabili kagesi ku-wingsuit, noma isudi yamaphiko, ukuze indize ngokushesha nangesikhathi esengeziwe — iyi-wingsuit yokuqala efakwe ugesi.
Izikhuthazi ze-carbon fibre zizungeza cishe ku-25,000 rpm, ngayinye inikwa amandla yinjini kagesi engu-7.5 kW (10 hp). Isakhiwo esiwasekelayo sifana “nokulenga” phambi kwesiqu somtshuzi. Njengoba zisebenza ngogesi, izinjini zinikwa amandla yibhethri eliqinisekisa imizuzu emihlanu yamandla.
Kubonakala kuncane, kodwa kwanele ukukwenza nyusa isivinini sibe ngaphezu kuka-300 km/h futhi ngisho nokuzuza ukuphakama.
Okuthile esingakubona kulolu vivinyo, lapho uPeter Salzmann ehliswa khona endizeni engu-3000 m ukuphakama, adlule esiqongweni sezintaba ezimbili bese evula ama-thrusters afakwe ugesi amaphiko ukuze adlule intaba yesithathu, ephakeme kunezinye ezimbili:
Kuthathe iminyaka emithathu ukwenza i-wingsuit efakwe ugesi ibe ngokoqobo - nesikhathi esiningi esichithwa emhubheni womoya - kusukela kumbono wangempela ka-Salzmann ngokwakhe.
