6.9 gram helicopter

Check it out at http://pixelito.reference.be/

Fully controllable, infrared - no swashplate, no servos, no pushrods......extraordinary!

Dave Jackson, where are you?

The link is correct, it should be working now ... I had some errors when I tried to look at it initially by clicking on the link in Mac's post, but if you open a new window and copy and paste it in, or link to it from a Google search for pixelito, it works ... strange hey?

I think the poor guy's site has been "slashdotted" (overwhelmed) by people in the last hour or so - after it someone gave a headsup in "Boing-Boing" - http://boingboing.net/

Worked in Firefox for me a few hours ago, including the amazing video of this tiny thing flying neatly under full control around his living room. Looks like a largish dragonfly!

Be interesting to hear the your observations.

Brilliant. I want one for xmas. Are they commercially available?

edit: I just got the site working. I guess you got to build it yourself.
