All the makers of airplanes need to recall their aircraft because they tend to fall out of the sky when they run out of fuel.
I must say, It is fitting that this is the end of Kaymen's 15 minutes of fame. From direct experience, he has been an arrogant player in the arena of technology. You only need to talk with all the engineers and technicians who have designed and built the machines of his desires and dreams. Apparently, he comes across as a know-it-all, requires major technical support, and at the same time takes all of the credit.
I always thought the Segway wasn't going anywhere and now it still won't.

Actually planes glide when they run out of gas. Some don't glide well but with a good pilot and some luck you can still safely land.
Now helicopters... but they fly through sheer force of will anyway, you expect bad things to happen when they run out of will.
