Imagine you’re so gay engineer who thought of an idea I looking at it wrong what is wrong what is I can control it wrong by not using it wasn’t remote controller wirelessly bike by sitting on it and piloting it like if it were a helicopter, and then you end up making this, because what you may exactly people from Curtis-wright aircraft corporation decided to do. They literally think out of the box that was out of the universe, and this was also a prototype and this was no helicopter it was literally a drone what’s the controlling of a helicopter, well it is an experimental aircraft we need that if they get canceled sometime later.
The Curtiss-Wright VZ-7 (also known as the VZ-7AP[1]) was a VTOL quadrotor helicopter aircraft designed by the Curtiss-Wright company for the US Army. Like the Chrysler VZ-6 and the VZ-8 Airgeep it was to be a "flying jeep". Wikipedia

The Aerophysics Development Corporation, a subsidiary of Curtiss-Wright, designed an "Aerial Platform" for a US Army Transport and Research Command "Flying Jeep" design competition. The Aerophysics design sat two in tandem between four ducted fan rotors and could also be armed with machine-guns or recoil-less rifles.[2]

To prove the design concept the US Army ordered two prototypes of a smaller single-seat demonstrator, the VZ-7, which were delivered to the US Army in mid-1958. The VZ-7 had a fuselage with the pilot's seat, fuel tanks and flight controls. On both sides of the fuselage the four propeller/rotors were attached, unshrouded (the aircraft did originally have shrouds, but these were later removed). The VZ-7 was controlled by changing the thrust of each propeller and was maneuverable and easy to control.
