Re: Precision Quadrotor Flying

I wasn't sure if I was impressed much by seeing a succesion of video clips of the successful attempts to have a quadrotor fling itself through targets by executing what seemed to be canned maneuvers that needed a specific starting point. (How's that for a run-on sentence? best you have seen today?? )

But....

For a completely different sort of quadrotor precision guidance that uses human wetware instead of silicon hardware, I know I enjoy what I see in this video:
