Home-made helicopter ready to fly, possibly

Wanting to have your own personal helicopter is a fairly common aspiration - but one man in China has gone to the length of building his own home-made helicopter.

Gao Hanjie created his do-it-yourself helicopter in Shenyang, northeast China - spending two months completing the 350kg, three-meter-long aircraft.
It makes him yet another of China's ingenious homebrew technologists, including Wu Yulu's home-made robots, and Yang Youde's home-made cannon.
Gao says that soon he will soon be hoping to find an appropriate open space for his helicopter's first test flight.
Hang on, we think we may have spotted a slight design flaw.
