NASA’s Dragonfly mission team is moving on to the next stage of development on the revolutionary, car-sized nuclear-powered drone it plans to fly over and land on the organic-rich sands of Saturn’s large moon Titan.

    Honestly, I’m not upto date on the goals of this mission, but I really like thinking about a quadcopter (or dual quad) flying around on titan.

        what’s the difference between a dual-quadcopter and an octocopter?

          The arrangement of the propellers. In this case there are four supports and there’s two propellers on each support (one above, one below).

        You know, I just made a dumb comment about Dune, but I’m happy I learned things about helicopters too.
