Payload

Research suggests that standard passenger weights are about 80kg per person, so lets be generous and increase that somewhat.

Pilot          =  100 kg
Passenger =  100 kg
Baggage    =  50 kg

Given most airlines around the world only allow 20 kg per passenger as a checked in baggage allowance, 50 kg for two people is also generous.

If I design the VLT to carry these weights, then the limiting factor may well become the physical size of the compartment.  This would become preferable as it would simplify things, assuming weight and balance is OK, then if you can fit it in, then you can go.
