In the near future quadrotors will pick you up and bring you to any place you like, if the battery does not fail that is.

I swear it's a true story:
I was working at my desk and I saw the same thing near my head, I was wearing headphones, I was like (what the F is that) when I turned back, I saw my boss experimenting it with the guys that invented it ... he was bullying us all playing with the remote controller... damn boss. we laughed so much that day.

hope everyone could see those industrial crane applications would barely apply to skyscrape buildin' or any other taller one, more than 10-15m above ground level.

#8 yes it's a great potential application but... what works for small structures does not necesarely work for big;
real helicopters and RC, you can never do with a real heli what some skilled RC pilot can do...
it's a question of weight to power ratio and what stress the structure can take.
like beetles or insects with exoskeletons in general have a maximum size;
if someone out there is an engineer maybe he could explain what the exponential structure strength has to be when augmenting the size.
so right now i don't understand the purpose of those little machines beside what they're demonstrating (and it's fun to watch)

Guess it would be interesting if it never went over my head
