Very nice concept for the VTOL type thing using these.

I think if you are serious and want you plane to look awesome stopping the torque WITHOUT the right aileons, then I think $400 wouldn't be anything to have some fun with and have a awesome looking plane

I still say go for it

Has anyone seen Eddie Weeks "The RigIt uses the same principle you are talking about but is a little different. See for yourself " [link=http://www.corpcomp.com/weeks1/Rig/Rig.html]Here[/link]

It's actually pretty amazing turbine concept...
