Please make sure to update this thread!

This is amazing.
An incredible "model"...hopefully a successful flyer.
Will he even get certification?

I assume its classed as an experimental?

It looks underpowered to me.
I know theres four of those little engines, but they are still little engines.

Its funny, because I was watching some RC videos the other day and thinking
that some of these RC models are big enough for a person to squeeze into.
And I was wondering when someone might try it.

Looks a little tight in that cockpit though!
