L'enfant Terrible du RCIndia




Just came across this intriguing article. Something, I felt, we should all be proud of. However, the last line of the article proved to be a damper ; "But the fact that the flying Maruti has yet to get airborne has left many sceptical about its inventor's claims."

Check it out.

By-the-way....wots so amazing if a maruti is made to fly  Huh?...... all you need is a wing to take the wight ......which I hope they have succeeded in making. they must have reduced its weight by removing unwanted assessories from it.....and it will fly like a microlight thats it.

i think we all know about terrafugia and other experimental models(some are already flying), but imho a maruti 800 version of terrafugia will be laughing on the other side of your face.
