Well, I think that the things that make this illegal to be:

[R01-2]
The Frame Perimeter of a Robot is defined by the outer-most set of exterior vertices on the Robot that are within the Bumper Zone, which is between 2 and 10 in. from the floor.

^Even if you were able to get flying, you're still restricted to an air ceiling ~10" above the ground.

[R08]
Robot parts shall not be made from hazardous materials, be unsafe, cause an unsafe condition, or interfere with the operation of other Robots.

Read it as you will.
