Un hexadecacopter qui marche, euh vole, avec un pilote

Après les essais, dangereux à mon goût d'il y a quelques semaines, genre coupe-coupe, la version Allemande

Le hexadeca (prefix pour 16 ... enfin je crois) - kopter a pu voler 1 minute 30.  J'adooore le train d'atterrissage, enfin la boule d'atterrissage =)

At the end of October 2011, Thomas Senkel of e-volo made the first manned flight with an e-powered multicopter at an airstrip in the southwest of Germany. The flight lasted one minute and 30 seconds, after which the constructor and test pilot stated: "The flight characteristics are good natured. Without any steering input it would just hover there on the spot". This could be the future of flight, piloting a device as simple as a car.
