Drone Flies Upside Down: A Bi-Copter Revolution
13 Feb
Summary
- The V-Copter Falcon Mini is an agile, bi-copter drone with two rotors.
- It can fly upside down in 'Reverse Flight' mode.
- The drone launches globally in late February 2026 starting at $379.
ZeroZero Robotics has unveiled the V-Copter Falcon Mini, a compact bi-copter drone distinct from standard quadcopters due to its two-motor, two-rotor design. This innovative configuration enables remarkable agility and significantly reduced noise levels during flight. A unique "Reverse Flight" mode allows the drone to operate upside down after refitting propellers and using a special bracket.
The V-Copter Falcon Mini is set for a global launch at the end of February 2026, following a successful crowdfunding campaign. It will be available on Amazon US and Amazon Europe. The Standard kit is priced at $379 in the US and £379 in Europe, while the Fly More Combo, including extra batteries and a charging hub, costs $399 / £399.
While capable of capturing 4K 30fps video and 12MP JPEGs, the camera is fully automatic with no manual controls, suggesting the drone prioritizes flight experience over image capture. Flight times are rated up to 34 minutes, though real-world testing indicated closer to 20 minutes under moderate conditions.
