Drones are ace

Is it weird I expected this to be an incredibly charged political debate about the American military?

Thanks Obama.

Had one last year hovering around our film set. Everyone went into meltdown and I found the guy in a park. Fat guy, looked like Rene from storage wars. Acted dead tough until several 6 foot 5 security guards stood over him and you could literally hear the farts squeaking out his cheeks.

Droners be like cyclists IMO.

its annoying that they only can fly for 3 minutes before you have to recharge them.

Yeah that's the annoying thing for me. I've noticed some that cost a few hundred can get up to around 20 minutes, so if you have a replacement battery or two (don't know how expensive these are) you could have an hour of fun.

See my little thought process is, what is he doing with the drone whilst being confronted? Was he landing it softly on the ground? Fighting to keep in in the air whilst fronting you?

Seems a very odd time to be doing that lol or being caught so easily anyway.

Should be banned to the public I think, all well and dandy until a plane gets brought down.

I am thoroughly disturbed by the fact anyone can own one and fly it over my property.

I'm sure if it's over your property and disturbing you you'd be within your rights to lob a rock at it and down it.

Obviously I know if it's 200m up in the air you're likely to miss, but that's besides the point.
