Abstract
Small-scale flying saucers with vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) capability have been constructed by hobbyists. They make use of an aerodynamic phenomenon known as the Coanda effect. It is possible the Coanda effect can be integrated with electrohydrodynamics for a particularly eerie-looking flying saucer.
