BIG R/C Death Star multicopter, video by Flite Test

[georgegassaway]

So, the group at Flite Test made a huge Death Star, and also a planet, to fly as multicopters. The Death Star is a "Y" copter with twin motors/props (six total). They also flew some new Star Wars Quads sold by the sponsors of the video (those are sort of neat, but priced way out of my ballpark).
