Even if it did work I don't think the EmDrive would be revolutionary. A vehicle equipped with it still has to generate energy. It terms of how useful it is you've just moved the payload requirement from the fuel tank to the generator module. Going by these experiments the EmDrive doesn't have a hope of ever matching the mass efficiency of an ion drive.
