X3 or X³ ?
[edit]Eurocopter said X3 in their press release. I think the ³ is difficult to see in standard zoom - could be a 2, could be an 8, I don't know. What should we use? TGCP (talk) 06:03, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
Bank or pitch ?
[edit]Airbus' Stephen Mundt says that the Xcubed can "bank up and down at hover through a range of 40 degrees, which would help in target acquisition". That would mean leaning to its side, which is very odd in hover. Maybe he means pitch attitude, but even so, pitching 20 degrees up and down (like a ship in the waves) is not the same as keeping the nose fixed in that attitude. Unclear what Airbus means, and what the figures are - and they probably depend on weight and altitude as well. TGCP (talk) 15:09, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
