Reminds me a bit of the CarterCopter with the wings.

That never seemed to progress beyond a certain stage, however it was acquired last year by Jaunt Mobility who expressed interest in the Slowed Rotor concept and technology that Jay had worked on for a long time.

By producing lift with the wing rotor rpm can be reduced
 
Interesting prop spinner. It appears to support the tail as a center support but it doesn't like the Niki Lightning does, which is the tail's sole support. Instead it's like a ball and socket with the ball rotating with the prop sunk into a socket on the tail side. Not sure how this is hugely beneficial and seems more form over function.

Always glad to see a new enclosed tandem with side doors but I fear this will be very very expensive.
 
... because the bolts are horizontal instead of vertical ?
