I recently got the new Flintstones Ideas set and while it's not perfect (needs the kids and Dino!!) I love the actual house design and it's had me re-watching the original cartoons. This quick MOC is based on the very first episode and is "The Flintstone Flyer" (previously known as the Barney-copter after its inventor!) I love the wacky primitive "technology" of the show and this is a great example!!

Close up of the "engine" I've got some ideas on improving its accuracy and adding the foot pedals but for now I think it's close enough. The wheels do all rotate but don't turn the propeller shaft... yet!
