Even though the car cannot fly, it has design features of a conventional helicopter - like main rotor, tail boom and tail rotor. The rotors and side panels are also fitted with colourful LED lights.
It took almost seven months for Mithilesh and his brother to complete the design and in addition, an investment of seven lakh rupees went into the project.
