11 3D Robotics X8 VTOL conversion Posted by Chris Anderson on September 21, 2013 at 12:32pm Very cool. Now let's see how it handles the transitions to/from forward flight. E-mail me when people leave their comments – Follow

Ha, I like a good parlor trick.
If you hover (or fly) to enough altitude, transition is always possible, Harry.
I have got 3 of the x-8's. Time to experiment! How about details and dimensions please.

Nice! Actually after watching it a few times I can see all the necessary linkages required for a forward flight transition. I look forward to seeing that video!
It's only a demonstration of a tricopter skinned as an X8 - transition not possible. Cheap parlor trick.
So fantastic!
no more hand launching for this guy! That's the worst part of flying X8 :)
