Modular
1 main module & 6 rotors. Plug & play using magnetic connection enables creative transformation of Airblock and infinite fun. Airblock's main control module comes with three integrated LED lights, for which the color and brightness is individually controllable, a barometer for altitude sensing, a ultrasonic sensor for distance measuring, a gyroscope measuring and maintaining orientation and a Bluetooth module for connectivity. The propeller modules are composed of hollow cup motor and propeller.
Aircraft Mode
Airblock's standard form is the six-rotors aircraft. Makeblock APP contains pre-defined functions. User can also create and Program Custom Controllers to realize the imagination of Airblock. Propeller guards and soft build materials makes Airblock safe to use.
Hovercraft Mode
Simply rotate four of the propeller modules and install the included base to turn your aircraft into a hovercraft able to travel on level ground and hover above still water. When in Land mode, Airblock becomes a high-speed drift racing car and while in Water mode, Airblock functions as a watercraft that gently hovers across the water.
Programmable
No coding experience required. Program your fancy flying through Makeblock APP. Its graphical programming interface makes it a fun and intuitive aerial platform, while custom-engineered magnetic connectors makes assembly quick and easy.
