Yes. It will work. I am planning to make one myself. You need to build and attach a high raised trailer with a platform big enough for the intended motor. Weld a large steel 3 or 6 bladed fan on the end of the driveshaft and there you go for an idea, a 10hp will take you about 30mph. The other guy has no Idea what he is talking about.

do you mean a propeller powered by your feet like the one in "kiki's delivery service" or one powered by a moter? realy though, either can be done as long as you have the skills and knowledge. also, were you thinking of making this thing fly a little with wings or what? reply with what you want it powered with and weather you want to try and make it fly and i'll tell you how it might be made.
