"BUZZ" is inspired by ‘worker bees’ not drones (bee).
Generally worker bees dedicate their life to take on variety of tasks and working activities.
Vertical take-off, landing and hovering are the main characteristics which makes helicopters original in the aviation industry. By taking advantages of the unique characteristics of the helicopter, it is useful in various situations such as rescue, security, transportation etc.
In order to fulfill the numerous tasks as a worker bee, “BUZZ” is equipped with independent legs to land in an uneven grounds, weight balancer on left and right functioning as a stabilizer, and of course a cockpit with tandem seats for pilots. Existence of a human riding the helicopter is one important factor which sets "BUZZ" apart from drones.
