    Yeh, but you still have to squat down to pick it up and put it on the table. You'll need to work on that a little more!

    But it was windy and it would get blown off the table. (actually it would, it already was earlier that day)

    Sentry is practicing flying into the back of his car and disconnecting the battery all in one shot. Step 2 will be to fly while sitting in the drivers seat, so FPV can be done without ever standing up. Now that is awesome.

    Mikrokopter has a "Follow Me" mode where the pilot can walk around, hands off the transmitter, and the copter hovers above him no matter where he goes. Kind of like a faithful dog in the sky. How do they do that? A little harder to do on a fixed wing plane. Maybe it could fly right up to you, stall, and you can hand catch it.

    I would have smacked myself in the face if I tried it. Actually I was just trying to land near me but a gust of wind caught it. When I saw it was getting close I just went down and hoped for the best.
