A dual-rotor helicopter with spinning blades. It is horribly unstable, and seems to enjoy turning itself into pyrotechnic shows half the time, but the other half of the time it seems like it actually wants to fly. It is able to generate enough lift to get off the ground for short periods of time, albeit rarely. Have fun trying to get this thing to work.
