Lady GaGa, first wearable hexacopter

Ok now I have seen it "all"... For some reason I were not stunned to see that it was Lady GaGa who made this first.. But here we are.

 

On their video it looks a bit badly tuned but it flies. Unfortunately video cannot be embedded to Ning so everyone need to look it by them selfs. 

 

LADY GAGA has clad herself in everything from meat to Kermit the Frogs, but her latest wardrobe wonder raised more than eyebrows when she wore a flying dress to promote her new album, Artpop.

At a secret New York event Gaga slipped into the battery-powered couture contraption, called Volantis, and hovered about a foot above the ground thanks to the hexi-copter design by Techhaus Studio XO.

The dress claims to be the world's first flying outfit but, before you tear up your bus tickets, Gaga explains it's more symbolic than transport solution.

That's one fancy frame I would say. Maybe we need to start making those at jDrones  ;)

    Hi Moon, well this is not best place to ask as i am traveling often and emails are coming to private box. Contact our customer service and then all people on shipping will see your emails. You can use contact us link on jdrones store. 

    I will check from shipping why it has not been sent out.. 

  • "Hi Jani Please send order items as soon as possible, my order number 5929, you did not ship my order. You still did not response my question. this is third times"

  • Hi Jani

    Please send order items as soon as possible, my order number 5929, you did not ship my order.

    You still did not response my question.

  • Hi Jani

    Please send order items as soon as possible, my order number 5929, you did not ship my order.

  • I want to chew the meat suit off her if I can't fly her on a mission.  ;)  I'll have to settle for watching her host SNL.

  • I remember when Michael Jackson (actually Rocketman) made a Jet Pack entrance on stage to a concert of his.  Gotta say that between her style stolen from Cher, and this recent Multicopter stunt where she was the payload, I just see another example of Hollywood stealing and rehashing old schtick.  
    I was told by my old lawyer that a patent lawsuit is only good for 1 million dollars, and that this is why so many settle out of court.   
    Mark Dice has an interesting perspective on her flight:

  • Great work Gus, I appologize for the stupid questions.
  • Interesting, lower kv :/ ? what kv are your motors rated at? I would assume you need higher kv for EDFs to get the rpms... of course, unless you have custom higher pitched impellers ... :)

    I'm using the "HK special" (aka the cheap 2800kv+45a escs) here... 3D printed EDF mounts. snappy on launch, but outright lazy... and 'clunks', aka falls, on landing since there's little ground effect.

  • Jani, EDf multirotors will never fly "snappy" because that type of propulsion is more similar to a turbine engine which has to "spool-up" and increase RPM before it can generate thrust. If by "snappy" you mean control response, multirotors with conventional propellers will always be more responsive to control inputs than those EDFs. You are comparing very different types of propulsion; or apples and oranges if you will...

    When I mentioned 6S, 5000 mAh, 5 minutes, that was a reference to my EDF tricopter. My propeller driven multicopters, which can be seen at www.isiscopter.com, have significantly longer flight times and also use 15" T-motor carbon fiber propellers and the highest quality components.

    Jared, you are highly skilled at stating the obvious. I am sure that will get you far in life...

  • it could have been so much better!
