A villager trying to test-fly a home-made helicopter made with a boat engine was stopped by the police.

Chen Ruihua, from Jiangsu province, is an amateur aircraft builder. He began building helicopters three years ago as a hobby. He taught himself using information he found on the internet.

However, his home-made helicopter adventure came to an end when local police caught him standing by the roadside with his aircraft.

The police told Chen not to fly the aircraft again, saying it was not safe.

After much discussion, Chen promised to stop flying the helicopter until he was qualified to do so.
