Obviously I don't have a controller to play with, but I can hold my iPhone in one hand, and swipe to shut down. Those of you who DO have controllers, can you hold the remote (with phone) in one hand safely and swipe to auto take off? If so, wouldn't hand launches be possible? I don't see a problem with hand recoveries since you can bring it in close, release the sticks, let it hover in place, hold remote in one hand, grasp the bottom of the AC, while thumbing straight down on the left stick. Probably much harder in reality...YMMV.
