Overview
This project was inspired by the E-Volo as can be seen here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2057423/Multicopter-1-man-flying-space-hopper-air-car-future.html and here: http://e-volo.com/Home.html
In a nutshell it is a one-person manned multicopter powered by batteries and flown with a simple video game controller. The E-Volo can currently get 20 minutes of flight time between charges. We would want to at least meet this time or exceed it if possible.
This project can be combined with the existing project for a two person machine: Cordova
