Stefan,

Don't wimper too much....

The first commercially available Proxflyer will be the Proxflyer Mosquito. The Mosquito will be available in a limited number before the end of this year. It will probably be sold world-wide through WES- Technik in Germany as well as in Norway through a local dealer.

Expected price for a complete Proxflyer Mosquito, ready to fly (without the transmitter) will be approximately 650 Euro. (750 USD) --

Wow! Now I know what you Norwegians do during the long winters! That was pretty amazing.

A bit more, left-right, forwards-backwards and up-down. Three channels in all, iirc.

Amazing little thing this, we had it demonstrated at a club meeting. Don't ask me for tech details, but I had it hovering all by itself just in front of me. Indoor use only, and limited forward/backward speed.

the proxflyer site says it only has two channels

Since there is no cyclic or collective, I wonder how you are going to get much more than up and down and rotate with two channels.
