Oh - My - God.

Isn't this a little like hooking a horse to a carriage and saying, "I invented the car!"

Weird for the fly? Some quasi-Bob Ross just superglued a stick its ass and attached an air foil to the back. And I really want to know how this guy recovers the fly to remove the "rigid motor mount".

On the other hand, this is great justification for genetically back engineering Pterodactyls.

I had the same thought Dave, although it seems that the fly doesn't stay aloft for more than a handful of seconds with the airfoil attached.
