Caged quadcopter now on Kickstarter

[Richard Espy]

Hello again everyone!

If you remember the XT Flyer drone I talked about some time ago on here, it turns out the company making them is stepping up their game. They just started a Kickstarter a few days ago and seem to have some of a following on social media. Anyone thinking about getting their hands on one of them?

Nope..

nah

 

[Chuck]

No thanks.

Why not? It looks promising. And for $299, it's not a terrible price

They also just released a graphic talking a little bit about their follow me function. Makes sense for them to talk about it since hitting an object in the way even at low speeds would be catastrophic for a low speed design.

Richard,
I see you posting this on several forums. You are either the developer or an investor with valid concerns about recouping your investment.

Has a single KS drone ever made it to market?
