A method is provided for improving the flying characteristics of a multicopter in a failure situation, comprising the provision of a multicopter having at least six rotors each having a defined nominal rotation direction, and the driving of the rotors such that they rotate in accordance with the respective nominal rotation direction thereof, whereas, in the failure situation, at least one of the remaining rotors is driven such that it rotates in the opposite direction to the nominal rotation direction thereof, at least at times. A multicopter having improved flying characteristics in a failure situation is likewise provided, comprising at least six rotors each having a defined nominal rotation direction, and comprising control electronics with a stored control program which, in the failure situation, drives at least one of the remaining rotors such that it rotates in the opposite direction to the nominal rotation direction thereof, at least at times.
