If the Coyote gets bored.....

It's not a V4 and that's a Yamaha emblem on the fuel tank but still a good project for Chris! ;)
 
Good eye, Tosh! I didn't look at the pic that carefully, my bad.

What a McGuyver, engineer, machinist ... He did start with a VFR. Too heavy??
 
I cannot even begin to phantom just how many certificates, approvals and permits such would require...
... signed in triplicate, sent in, sent back, queried, lost, found, subjected to public inquiry, lost again, and finally buried in soft peat for three months and recycled as firelighters...

Not to worry Mike, Chris has an FJR too, but he probably doesn’t think of it as a “parts” bike.

Not to worry about that either. By th time they figured out which agency(s) had jurisdiction he will have crashed and totaled it.
 
I'll give the guy an A for effort, that's for sure! If you watched till near the end of the video, it's obvious the engine is working very hard and the cooling system pops, no way the basic radiator and fan were going to cut it. The amount of power required to lift a vehicle and it's pilot into the air is way more than just turning a rear wheel, especially with rotating wings!
 
This guy is a moron. His control system is lacking about as much as the titanic is sunk. The successful hoovercraft mostly use e-motors and are basically big drones. Computer controled. This guy's power to weight ratio is also wrong.

I got this. Except I would have a clip in my M1. I dont know what the Army was thinking here....this guy would last about 30 seconds on a battle field.
