This paper presents a novel control interface for flying robots which provides feeling that user is physically connected with the quadcopter by one pole. The proposed movement of robot visible light beam as continuously locates on beam. We developed prototype installing receiver in and making transmitter from green laser module expander. evaluation experiments suggest system can provide more intuitive interaction than conventional touch-pad interface, moving direction quadcopter.
