On the afternoon of January 19, at Nanmeng Village in Gaoguanzhai Town of
Shandong Province's Jinan City, a 28-year-old farmer named Zhao Zengguang
was busy preparing for a test flight of the helicopter that he made
himself. At 4:40 p.m., the test flight officially started. After staying
in the sky for nearly 15 minutes, the transmission emitted smoke,
indicating that Zhao's initial test flight would end in failure. Zhao
reportedly spent one year making the helicopter.
