A vehicle for transporting people as well as goods that moves with minimal aerodynamic drag loss because the energy in the aerodynamic drag is transferred to the propulsive thermal engine. The handle operating components generate reciprocal linear motion imparted to the clip applying mechanism and accommodate rotation of the cartridge about a cartridge axis. The device further comprises a photosensor, a controller electrically connected to the photosensor, and an actuator electrically connected to the controller. The method further includes sampling the input signal and applying the sampled signal to the biasing circuits.
