Chopto-hopto-copter
The Chopto-hopto-copter, also spelled Chopto-hopter-copter, is an H-TAV, a Helicopter-Type Airborne Vehicle. It is modelled loosely on the aerodynamics of the common grasshopper, and its spring-loaded mechanical hind legs let it jump take-off very rapidly.
Newer models come fitted with retractable chopping pincers. These can cut through anything except krypto-web.
It is manufactured by G & J Tarrow Siblings Inc. One has been seen on Norma Island.
First seen in Book 7, page 70
