What do you guys think of this concept? A trike like mix between a helicopter and a sport motorcycle. It uses three sets of push/pull props instead of a typical VTOL setup.



Personally I think its an interesting design, but it should have the pilot slightly to the rear and move other components up front so the driver's/pilot's drag creates static stability. But otherwise, it seems like a facinating design.
