That's kind of cool.

I saw a video of some Chinese kid who built his own helicopter out of
junk parts.

Another couple - gyrocopter.

Watching the fist video of the home-made copter, I kept expecting to
see some type of fail. The kid knew how to fly the thing rather well.
And the plane in the second video gave you the impression that it was
held together with twine and bailing wire. Innovation - ain't it
grand? It used to be what America was all about. Now the country
isn't much more than the world's PC & Green Enforcement agency.
