Hahah, well - rethink that. So far, there is hardly other drones in the Sky you can crash into.

I like your way of thinking. I might investigate this myself.

There's nothing to hit in the sky where you are legally allowed to fly. The most biggest risk is pilot error. Motorcycles are still more dangerous, sorry. Also it's not the motorcycle that's dangerous, the thing that kills you is a girl on her cellphone driving her husband's SUV.

Meme Machine As a disabled biker I can guarantee it was the road that messed me up not the bike 😂🤷🏻‍♂️

Awesome!! Needs a roll cage tho. 👍

Everybody needs to check out the FliteTest video coming soon, it is even better! Was awesome to have you in Europe guys!

I thought the point of having a drone is so you can fly without putting yourself in danger lmao. We're going backwards.

What a bunch of stupid idiots wasting time and money in senseless entertainment

😍☺️☺️☺️

Just remove the arms:)

No, the arms are required for six men to lift, carry, and lower the coffin in the hole in the ground

Cowards need not apply, only for the brave among us ! I'd fly it :)

😂😂😂😂😂

@@freezatron me and you, would love to try to rip a real one. I want to see a punch out, seems to catch itself pretty good.

Was trying to listen for the specs. Did they say anything? Motors? Power supply? Flight computer? I think they mentioned the battery but i couldn't make it out.

@Rogue Mentality... don't be so negative, every designer relies on the knowledge of those that came before them, this is how development works, this is how ideas evolve and become more refined in order to become a commercially viable product. Hats off to them I say :)

Video is up at flite test 24 batteries with what looks like XT90 plugs. Maybe higher, i don't know if there are bigger XT's. Looked like 7S batteries, paired up in series so they'd be 14S. And they're just strapped inside a bucket stowed in the back. Yeah, it's a hobby build alright. XD I still don't know what computer they're using as a flight controller tho.

@@ClannerA01 there are XT120 connectors out there.

@@veganautfpv1237 Probably that. XT90's are kinda high for our hobby builds, but something like this is well beyond that. Jeez, all those batteries and it only has the flight time of a racer. The amount of power going through those connections... Rather than plugs, I was half expecting these things to have the batteries bolted together =P

Came here just to say that. Thanks, i'm out.

depends if the mans driving.

I agree. We need a new name for these things. Multi-copter?

@clint skyblade

As a name of this kind of machines "manned drones" I'd go with just ev-copter from electric vehicles or ez- copter as easy to fly. Multi- copter suggest that many people can fly, so rather no until it's gonna happen. We can also go back in the 50' the first one and only VTOL Bensen B-10 "Propcopter" .

ZF as in ZF that makes gearboxes etc?

@@wheresfuninthat I helped build and start a new facility in SC, USA. It is over a decade old now.

Don't be a pedant, they are still in the testing phase :)

It's a protoype for a ... etc... Duhhhh.

@@freezatron You sure it's not click bait though? They are calling it a historic moment but all that happened was a guy flew in a multirotor, it's been done before. Aerobatics with a person in it would be a whole other level! I would have felt less cheated if they called it 'the worlds largest aerobatic multirotor'.

Ok but I think you need to put yourself in their shoes for a moment, if that was a project I had been working on I would feel pretty elated too & might be forgiven for some hyperbole :) Bear in mind it's the first multi rotor capable of carrying a man to do aerobatics, it's their first video demonstrating their first test flights and you can see the exciting potential for this beast that lays ahead and represents a remarkable step forward in man carrying multi rotors. Of all the ones I've seen thus far it is easily the coolest machine by some margin. Also as a test pilot you would have to be very foolish to jump straight in to it and start doing back flips when your life is on the line, typically most test programs require about 500 hours of flying before you can start pushing the limits in a new aircraft, especially if you intend to sell them :) I say be patient and positive for them, it's only going to get better :) I doubt they've even had 1 whole hour of flying it yet, it's going to take them a while to build up confidence in their machine to the point where they will climb in and starting flying it like they stole it !! :D The alternative of course is to put a team together and have a go at designing, building and flying your own, which I would encourage you to do, not only would it give you a greater insight to the challenges of such a project but it could be really rewarding :) If you happen to live near me I'd be happy to join your team as I know how to build things, aircraft included plus I am a reasonably good pilot, helicopters, fixed wing and aerobatics both full size and RC, I a;so taught myself to fly paragliders too :)

@@hOZish7 I never saw any multirotor capable of lifting a person doing flips and corkscrews ;) That's a good first to me :)

quad, drone, multirotor... does it matter? everybody know what he means....

@@tgregi Not all drone is a multi-rotor machine. A drone is a umanned autonomous ariel craft. No human control. It could be like a plane, helicopter, anything even on land and sea.

@@MSaleh-vy8rr yeah i understand the official difference. but. how many people nowdays know what multirotor is and how many know what drone is? Most people when you say drone imagine quad..... words are not fixed with meaning, sometimes they shift by time. that is lenguage:)

Me too, I would say this is the Ferrari of Taxi Drones;)

Iam asking me why dies this still works with Hobby elektronics

Not 1001, but 1002: Coronavirus.

raymondgoubet, there are NO confirmed cases according to honorable Chinese gov’t. 🤣😂

Of course!

yeah put someone in there and give itto quadmovr ;)

@@t0tobi The poor soul. XD

That would probably kill the person inside...

YES

Yeah after reading a huge thread arguing about what "drone" means, I guess we should just call it a Pod. NOW THIS IS PODRACING. (Inb4 some nerd comes along like "But a pod is an elongated seed vessel of a leguminous plant")

Bixler said it "Manned multi rotor"

If it’s remotely piloted....it’s a drone. If it’s piloted by a human onboard it’s a multi rotor.

Starting Good,,,

@Rogue Mentality It may be a Multi rotor, but it identifies as a Drone LOL!!

Manned Made Multirotor Drone

I guess a normal stick control wouldn't work also helicopter would be difficult mhm. Maybe just a radio like pilots from the games are used too

​@@peterzingler6221 hard to imagine what would and wouldn't work well :) Keep in mind the G-forces will now also pull on your hands / body.. almost impossible to keep your hands in place.. :)

I'm down too. Let's race already!!!!!! We'll figure out the safety thing along the way.

Andrew Cavallo I was thinking “Vomit Copter of Doom” or “Doom Copter” for short.

Cypress Van Horn I do like Doom Copter haha

I vote for Hexa-Coffin

You very humourous 🤔

its not a drone tho

It needs to have flight control in the cockpit, unless it's a push button operation thing. Push button, go to work. Push button, go home.

We also have cyberpunk dystopia and streets on fire.

Mike Apila No worries, it’s already regulated. It’s called and experimental aircraft.

just a Naze32..

I was thinking it would probably fly better. It seems super sketchy in its tune and ability to maintain attitude.

Lol

yeah so what ? what do you expect them to do, sit quietly and do nothing to promote their product ??

Does pr stand for positive recognition?

usually it mean Public Relations but given the low caliber of some of the comments to this video it could easily mean Plebeian Reply ;) :D

Now, that guy really have balls. He dares to fly on things he made in his garage with his bare hands. Not big sponsored shit like these clowns.

Someone else remote control the aircraft

be like a raw egg in a tupperware. Still gonna smash from any real height

They need some kind of crash pod, like they use in hydroplane racing.

Ejecto seato cuzz! Lol.

"groundbreaking" in this context could have a double meaning, As when it falls out of the sky due to an ESC or Battery blow out it would Break the Ground on impact! I would hope that if an one prop failed, the software can compensate to level and land the craft. As for racing in competition...well that would be scary...i can see many collisions.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Hehehe Earth Shatteringly good.

@@billden4901 ah, here is the guy to explain jokes that everyone easily understands

Everyone would be... "Generalizing". If everyone used this basic formula to understand reality, this world would be a better place. "What you think you know?" compered to "What you actually know?" compared to "What you should know?". That would be truly ground breaking for most people! And of course many would think they "Know Better!".

Meh. Let's see MinChan Kim in it.
