Ummm... it can pull itself around ON THE GROUND with its propellers... which makes it a successful prop-driven cargo truck.

However, it is designed to be an airplane... so it has to get itself off the ground, tool around for a bit in a controllable manner, then put itself back on the ground safely before you can say "It Works"!

The first attempt to do this is scheduled for next month... we'll see then.
