Good grief!
Imagine having 1 x 7.62 chain gun, rocket launchers, A-P mine & chaff deployers onboard this 85 hp propelled "vessel"...
In NO way affiliated with the US A/C mfgr "Luscombe",
this very British concept is ingenious in exactly the same way as this "flying car":

I don't know what this plane's full configuration looks like, but from what is shown, it looks super stable.
I, also, looked for quite some time for videos of this plane in flgiht and can't find any. Anyone has a link, please share. Thanks!

It was filmed, but so blurry to be un-viewable. Two cameramen died of laughter, probably same effect had it been deployed on enemy troops. It's said the pitot tube converted into a peashooter when engaged for light assault role. Here is recently declassified film of new pilots conducting ground school training https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLemo9p0TpM
Warning, view with care. There could be side effects, including same plight as those cameramen.........
