The First Manned Flight of the Electric “Multicopter”

By Sunday November 6, 2011

Could this lead to the personal ‘copter that everyone’s said we should have had by now in our garages?

    But it’s not the first small aircraft to fly using batteries. I saw a small fixed wing plane, demonstrated on Youtube, about two years ago. That flew for about an hour, on a single charge. And even if it’s batteries were run dry. It could glide down safely. Not like this multiple rotary thing that would plummet down, pretty fast.
