Manned multirotor build PART 1
After the unexpected and positive outcome of previous KK2.0 + gas engine tests I decided to give I a try; building a, in relative terms, small, octocopter with man carrying capability.

The preliminary setup:
8x11.5hp Turningy 111cc gas engines with 26X12 Fiala propellers, mounted on an aluminum frame, 6063 T-6. Cockpit/seat made of glass fiber-epoxy covered expanded polystyrene. Redundant electrical system, single KK 2.0 flight controller.
TOW 120kg (70kg pilot), max thrust 200kg

Epic Win or Fail? Stay tuned for PART 2 and a great learning experience!
