Things that should not fly #7, Lance's RC Octocopter

This multi-rotor has eight motors and props and I have to say that, when in the air, looks a whole lot like the flying city from Stargate Atlantis.

Just another thing that should not fly, on the XJet channel.

Check the rest of my vids for lots of RC plane footage.

He was game using Hobby King Velcro to mount the Gopro Hd camera

I would not trust that stuff

@Raptor50aus I've found it to be as good as any velcro -- it's just the adhesive on the back that lets it down sometimes.

Why use eight motors when four can do the same thing with half the electric usage?

All it needs is a doughnut airframe bolted around the outside and you will upset the americans again.
