Hey Norbert, that's really cool. Thanks for posting this.
And remember, without vid it did not happen.

What to see you flying around plants...

Cheers

Yea that's pretty darn cute and as compact as it gets. I think I need one of those! What's the flight time?

Yah, she´s a cuty - even the Blade transmitter looks huge compared to her.

But she needs some tuning - haven´t found the right params for her yet. Hope Jussi can help out...

Flighttime is fine on a fresh 380mAh. Haven´t measured it but I guess it´s >8mins. Will test some others from 240 - 500mAh and report back.

As soon as I received my special firmware to fly missions I´ll post an evidence video.

To protect the motors, wires and to make a small landing gear I ordered some soft 6x11mm plastic caps.
Having them in different colours might help with orientation, too.

I used some heat shrink and ear plugs on my crazyflie and it worked pretty good.

Hehe, nice!
They´ll be good for a soft landing.
