World's smallest electric manned aircraft: Cri-Cri all-electric Aircraft [with video]

I thought Terrafugia was small enough, but now there's a challenge. The EADS Cri is the world's smallest manned aircraft, and it's electric.

The body is made of high-tech materials, lightweight and compression resistant, carrying a set of rechargeable high-capacity lithium batteries, and equipped with four anti-rotating propellers. This is a real private jet because the tiny cockpit can only fit one adult. It is said that after each charge, it can cruise automatically at 110 kilometers per hour for 30 minutes, and if it is changed to aerobatic mode, the speed can rush to 250 kilometers per hour, which is too impressive. However, such a small body makes me very worried about the safety performance, and do not drive out to show off when it is windy and heavy.
