He gets full marks for trying first time I seen counter rotating propellers on a home build A local fellow has been building auto Gyros since the 1970's (Ganville) a fellow has been building one man enclosed helicopters in Alberta almost as long (Scorpion ) I knew a local father and son team built a 2 seater took it on the first flight out in the back yard trying it out no flying experience just "testing "un tethered 200 feet straight up 200 feet straight down both dead .

Now this guy is much less painful to watch then the "multirotor in the court yard, lift me 2 feet off the ground guy"
