This NicoletoMK Mikrokopter Quadrocopter is not your department store variety flying toy. This 4 blade Quadrocopter is powerful enough to lift a 500 gram payload, this means camcorders, cameras or water balloons are fare game for this machine. It can be flown by an operator or run in autonomous mode which would make it great as an automated surveillance system. There is a video of the unit in operation here and pictures of it in flight here.

When I get older I want to make myself one of these 🙂

That is awesome, if it had enclosed blades on it I could see it selling big.

Wow quadcopters sure are the in vogue this month. Don’t get me wrong I’m gonna buy one as soon as it’s the future and they’re not so ridiculously expensive.
I’m also sortof surprised I don’t see tv news using this kind of thing. I’d think you could get some amazing shots.

I am so sad, that these things are more or less getting prohibited. In Germany, you can only fly it via remote control (never autonomous) and over ground you have permission to use. I almost wanted to build one two years ago, but what am I gonna do with it with these rules.
