Default Holy $#$ - eBay Copter

I hope no one has posted this yet...

Oh my god.

Look at ebay auction ID#4574014226

I would normally say something witty, but I am speechless. Is it a
scam? Perhaps an organic brain dysfunction? Or maybe this man is a
brave new form of life being weeded out my Darwin...

This is so far beyond anything I have experienced.

He gets A+ for creativity : ^). Dangerous yes, but I think it has a
better chance of 'flying' than the G1.

It sure looks like a candidate for this year's Darwin awards. Even if
it gets off the ground, there isn't going to be hardly any cooling air
flowing over the engine and it'll seize in short order.

Replace the two drive chain with heavy-duty Stihl® units and it would make
and excellent portable sawmill!

After closer examination, I think it is too heavy for the horsepower
available, and as Anthony said below, no enough done to keep engine
cool.

I wonder if it would really fly. Looks like he used a steal frame, its
got to be heavy. He said he didn't create any plans. Just because it
"looks" like it could fly doesn't mean it will. My money says it just
shakes around a lot.
