Summary

This 49-second video post by Melvin Vivas has no narration. It shows something he "one-shot" with xAI's Grok 4.7 model inside the Cursor AI code editor, meaning it was built from a single prompt. The "flying skills" joke suggests it's a flying game or flight simulator he plays on screen. The post doesn't share the prompt, settings or any steps, so it works as a quick look at what the model can do, not as a tutorial.

Key points

"One-shot" means the app came from a single prompt to the model, with no follow-up fixes.
The model used is Grok 4.7 from xAI, picked as the model inside the Cursor editor.
The output seems to be a flyable game or simulation that the creator plays in the video.
No prompt, code or setup details are shared, so you can't reproduce it exactly from the post.
To try it yourself: pick Grok 4.7 in Cursor's model picker and give it one detailed prompt that describes the game (controls, physics, visuals).
