I just found this interesting attempt at a VTOL or VSTOL aircraft. Twin mcCullouque 2 strokes, counter rotating, swash plate controlled props, delta wing, low aspect ratio - I'm not sure what other descriptors it needs. I figured this group would be all over it!
This actually seems like a good prospect. I guess if better powerplants were used, or maybe just more power...I don't know why it failed and can't find out anymore on the internet.
