IT FLYS !
I fly, too.
Just not together... yet.
Just back from AZ with Charlie Mara. He was able to fly it and made recommendations for making it better before I get too froggy. The original build was a bit squirely, but it flies.
One point of information though... No matter how slow the rotor blades are turning, be careful around them. Dragon wings are "very" light and an almost imperceptible puff of wind will lift the "advancing" blade (and drop the other one). I have a small cut over my left eye to prove it.
