Over at RCGroups Sean_M spotted this hexacopter flying at the Winter Olympics.
It would be interesting to know who was flying it and under what arrangement. Can't imagine it's a rogue operation!
(update)
here's a screen shot (literally!) of Sage Kotsenburg's semifinal run showing the unit's shadow.

yes, it was very cool somedays, up to 13°C, many people were only wearing T-shirts in open sun... getting up to the spot at 5:30 in the morning was a different story indeed ;-)
We had a great time a t Sochi, it was very stressful and intense but a great human adventure, we all just loved it!

As I understand it, it was +12 degrees some days, so not that cold Emin. (:
This olimpic was most expensive ever but for me also very stupid to see people walk around in short sleeves....
Jan gets the Gold Medal.
Bravo Jean-Luc!!!
