I love the noise it makes and how it manages to look like a helicopter and biology inspired. And the wing folded dive to get to the spice harvester is just fantastic.

    I think dragon flies are a lot more agile than helicopters though. So if they’ve figured out how to fly like one, I imagine it would be the better choice.

      They are more agile because they are tiny. Surface to mass ratio. One scales ³, one only ².
