I stopped by their booth at the Wings over the Prairie Festival in Stuttgart, AR a few years ago. It is a "bicycle" handled Stihl weedeater (the kind with a hoop handle that requires a shoulder strap) with a little modification, that’s all. The only thing that is not Stihl on it is the prop. It looked fine for what it is. The one thing that made me a scratch my head was their "one pin connector"(or whatever they call it). It looked like PVC or some other plastic that had been milled, but I guess you really wouldn’t need much more to hold 2 hp.
