Thats a wild little concept. Takes off quite steep.


When I was a kid, I had a wierd little kite toy. It was a rocket shaped fuselage with these fans that if you looked down the side, they were the shape of an 'S', and they rotated. Had a wingspan of perhaps 2 feet. The wind made the wings spin and up it would go into the sky. Used to bring neighbors from all over to see what the heck it was. (You could hear those little fins spinning away up there in the air, so it caused the dogs to bark and all, lol).
