Super wobbly. Looks like the structure holding the rotors together has a lot of flex in it. Makes my engineering brain panic.

I could see this being a rescue device for difficult terrain where a helicopter can't fit.

Recently some coast guard pilots had to risk their lives to save a dog on a hard to reach beach. This thing could have zipped into a tighter space than a chopper and been out in under 15 minutes.
