24-year-old converts car into a ‘helicopter’
In other news, a 24-year-old young man has fulfilled his dream of one day owning a helicopter after he successfully converted his car into one.
The young Indian man, identified as Mithilesh Prasad, made some modifications to his car so it could pass for a helicopter.
He fitted some conventional helicopter-like parts such as a tail boom and a tail rotor to the main rotor to make it look like a real helicopter.
However, the ‘helicopter’ built by Mithilesh Prasad is limited because it cannot fly.
