WELCOME to my new and IMPROVED piccolo page. I plan on working a lot more on this page going forward so bookmark me and come visit again. I have access to my own web server so if you have any movies or pictures or anything piccolo related posted on this page email me and I will do my best to get it up and running. I really want to try to get some comprehensive video footage up eventually, and to that end I am using the DivX codec to compress them so that they are as small as possible with the best quality available. If you have any questions about DivX, feel free to check out my DivX section for information on this incredible codec.

The Ikarus Piccolo is the world's first commercially available fully functional indoor radio controlled helicopter. It is produced by Ikarus Germany, a well known manufacturer of electric model helicopters. The design of this amazing achievement was created by the pioneer of indoor model helicopters, Alexander Van de Rostyne. His pixel series of helicopters were and still are some of the most incredible wonders of miniaturization that exist today as far as helicopters are concerned. I have had a piccolo for over a year now and it has more than lived up to my wildest expectations. Please browse through the site for more information on this revolutionary new hobby.
