Quad Copters at CCC Camp: Video 1

[EllyMcCormack]

This is beautiful 

[otchacallit]

ok why pay 10 k for one of these unless you are seriously rich that is...

[Craydon]

Could you get this sort of stability putting two of the rotors next to each other so there was just two arms?

[lamontalvo96]

im going to build one of these for science fair to test the plausibilyt of these replacing cars and many other forms of tranportation



[nickdeen]

@lamontalvo96 I think the dust caused as a flying car would make earth uninhabitable with haste.

[multibob400]

poc

[h2oreactor]

10k euro, serious?

[turdsurfer]

How much payload can something like that carry? If I can use it to carry RC gliders (weights vary from 200g to 800g) up to release altitude and release them for me then I'm interested and I'm sure a whole lot of RC glider pilots will be very interested in such a concept too.

[wizprod]

@turdsurfer It would have no problem at all lifting that kinda weight...

[GofCis]

@turdsurfer I think something like this could carry that weight with not too much trouble

[knabbers]

@turdsurfer Yes.

[daoneTM]

I totaly want one!!!!

[easteden777]

Microdrone is cool!

[quentinbush]

Mikrokopter (Germany)

[dude7422]

I still dont get why,,, you quad guys dont use stock trex 450 parts booms vert fins

[wizprod]

@dude7422 Way way way too many moving parts.. Keep it simple :)

[b3harris]

how much and where can I buy one?

[speedy464745]

2:18 he must be happy

[Gofer303]

Got plans?

[Gofer303]

Very cool got plans???

[chrisnhely]

want one, these are awsome

[ommiej]

Could you tell me the company that makes this quad. ? thanks RTR

[lacasainvitadenuevo]

Is very good, How much cost?

[1stsmosh]

These are a SCAM!! I bought one and IT DOESNT WORK!! i got my money back!

[ffeenixxx]

What on earth are you talking about???

[SOPM2007]

Quadcopters are... just AWESOME! I can't get enough. I don't know if it is already for sale but I found information about the MD4-1000 drone that can carry more than 2 lbs of load and has a flight time up to 50 mins! That is so amazing...

[Biglover29]

Oh that is awesome! I like how fast it went up. I wonder why some of the blades almost stop spinning sometimes? Is that how the left right movement controlled?

[ALTN8NRG]

The blades appear to stop spinning because of camera artifacts such as shutter speed. The blades are always in motion in flight. :-)

[Mongo400]

It is actually due to the camera that is recording the video, it looks like it is stopped but it is just because the camera is taking pictures when the blades are in the same location. Try this out: wave your hand infront of a CRT monitor (not lcd) you will see multiple frames of your hands. This is about the same but the frames are in the same spot with the video.

[highchekker]

Can i buy one of this? How long do the batteries last?

[54spiritedwill54]

It's a beautiful thing.

[krbosak]

The subtle difference is that commercial toy has serious lift capability and is significantly more stable. The research to make if repeatable, stable and reliable to survive 100 flights is exactly the 9KUSD bill.

[NuVanDibe]

where are the plans to build one of these?

[Sterlingfox]

Take a look at "Mikrokopter (dot) de"

[EndlessMater]

That was so awesome!

[a2g6d4k8]

that is just too cool.

[shadowshian]

what kind of mass lifting capability they have. i mean in addition to their own weight

[mee101022]

Oh hells yes!

It's a beautiful thing. I want me one.

[dpeeps]

OMG thats crazy, if I wasn't a broke college joe I would build one of these right NOW!

[orvtech]

can i haz one ?

[MadCatMk254]

CCC Camp just pwns

wish i was there
