Found this video and immediately thought of you! [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4HM3R8Iw30&feature=relmfu[/youtube]
Ooh, ooh... this one too!!! Its a float plane (err - quad) [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FugXPaJu_2w&feature=related[/youtube]
Yeah - stupid simple! So simple in fact, had I not found that video I doubt I would have thought of it!
Use an aluminum Quad Copter, hover those marshmallows over the camp fire, then land on a helipad made of graham crackers and chocolate...... ;D

Mike - Just watched the other video that you mentioned today. Not sure why I didn't watch it when you first posted. Wow - He even flips it at the end! Very cool little quad. I'll have to try it with the cam on it. ...Tiger
Woohoo - just ordered one from Sleadd's!!!! They had the RTF in stock but I wanted the BNF obviously Cory said it would be in Friday, and if it isn't he'll take the Tx out of the RTF and sell the rest to me as the BNF!!! Woohoo - GREAT fun ;D ;D ;D
Chris from Sunday flying @ Redwood School had a float-fly idea... set up 4 shot glasses, fill with whiskey, and set the quad in them with the styrofoam feet for a "liquid" take-off I quickly thought of the symetry to "Beer Pong" and decided it would be cool to set up a shot glass "landing" site and try to land in the glasses as a drinking game ??? :-X (we may find out this weekend when I get mine in-hand!) Actually, I think Chris mentioned spiced rum, but I'm a Daniel's man 8)
Here's another video. The quality is crap, but its a great representation of just how much this little ultra-micro quad can lift! In the video the pilot shows that the AUW is 110 grams. Bone-stock, out-of-the-box it weighs 75 grams! [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=1vPkBuDrOeA#![/youtube]
This just in from Micro-flight.com [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRHc830Go14&feature=related[/youtube] http://www.micro-flight.com/BLADE%20mQX%20Upgrades.htm
Nice videos, thanks for sharing. That Dave Herbert makes a lot of cool videos. I like the disk body in the second video too.
One more video to share... I've posted this in a couple other threads. I know, I know, cross-posting! Hopefully no one gets upset and just enjoys the video [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CcbhmaCvfI[/youtube]
