    Who would chase you for the ACC levies? New Zealand Transport Agency, or the Civil Aviation Authority?

    You could make a buck or two flying up and down the fruit orchards on frosty nights keeping the air stirred up, be cheaper than a chopper,wonder if it has heated grips and an auxillary plug to hook up your heated jacket Hmmmmof course this contraption will never get off the ground,( Pardon the pun) by the time the relavant authorities have agreed on what to classify it as and who will WOF it ,the inventor will have died of starvation.

    I don't think it can be stabilized without the four straps tethering it to the ground. The centre of gravity is way too high and the torque reaction would be quite severe. With a couple of wheels it would make a great lawnmower.
