Volocopter VC200 a manned multicopter

Stick reminds me of an MS Sidewinder Pro I still have. ;)
Very insensitve stick; full yaw (2:30) looks like about 15 degrees per second and full pitch (2:50) maybe 5 degrees.
Watch him push the "auto land" button (JS hat down) at about 4:30.
They even have some vibration issues, watch the landing gear about 2:43.  :)
I looks like it acts like a Revo w/GPS on a hex (each arm has 3 motors, maybe even running the same motor control signal in all 3) running VelocityRoam and using AutoTakeoff and AutoLand.
