Default 3 props, 3 throttles eCCPM

I couldn't decide where to put this.. Unusual RC? Radios? Engines?

Have a look: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y17...riplething.jpg

Anyway the question is simply, would a flying machine such as this be feasable? Each propeller has an engine, each engine has a servo controlling its throttle. They are connected to the radio the same way they would be connected to the swashplate on a 120 degree eCCPM heli. The tail rotor is constant drive, varaible pitch and connected to the rudder channel as usual.

How would it perform in forward flight? (assuming it would work at all)
