I guess this is the appropriate place for this-I hate posting links but this thing is worth a look because it's so 'off the wall', and yes, that is a big squirrel cage fan on top-

Wow, that's novel! Reminds me of one of those early flight contraptions which often flailed themselves to pieces.

Could be interesting the first time one of the full size birds meets a flock of Canadian Geese! :shock: :lol: :lol:

Looks like one of the UAVs that flew at Farnbrough International Airshow, ugly as hell.
