A remotely controlled multirotor aircraft for acquiring images and an interface device for controlling the aircraft, wherein the aircraft includes a receiving component adapted to receive a direction and/or orientation signal which can be transmitted by an interface device, wherein the direction and/or orientation signal defines a direction in which the aircraft must move and/or be oriented, and a flight control component adapted to control the attitude of the aircraft and configured for reading the direction and/or orientation signal, determining, on the basis of the direction and/or orientation signal, the direction in which the aircraft must move and/or be oriented, and generating a control signal adapted to make the aircraft take an attitude such as to make it move and/or be oriented in the predetermined direction.
