From a 2011 hobby/model show in Germany. Very smooth demo including take-off and landing. Clearly a very light build (see specs below) otherwise they wouldn’t have been able to have it fly so slowly (which makes it awesome).
Of course, I want to see these things autonomous rather than remote controlled 😉

We purchased the soldering kit after our son did the Mirobot workshops at school. He loved the idea of soldering…
