Default something that flies...


Good afternoon,

I am really just trying to find what is and what you call this 'thing' I saw someone flying and did not have the intelligence to talk to the person does any one know...

It is not really a 'Copter was more like 4 electric fan placed horizontally on a 'X' frame. the fan could be RC tilted in pair in order to have the unit move forward backward and to turn. All togetther it wa very flat the center had the batteries a way to attach accessories.
so something like
0
0X0
0.
Very crude but if anyone saw that thing before I guess they would recognize it !

I'd be interested in a kit or a plan or a completely assembled unit. Any idea ?

Thanking you in advance
a

Actually the one I saw seemed more 'sturdy' than this.. Also the 'fans' were within a 'cicle' that protected them (and youself I guess)
How are they call? Are there different models of these ?
