You kid... Hmm. What is the theoretical maximum force that high-strength propellers can impart within a 30"x30" frame? Would probably be 12" propellers for a competitive robot, given the probable frame needs. Was never very good with fluid dynamics. I wonder if they could lift 20 lbs up about 30 inches in 10 seconds using our battery.

Then we would add a shell in the shape of a van to the top of the device. And yes, you would get your hovervan, paint job and all
