Aggressive Maneuvering Helo UAV

[Scoob]

Well, we're safe as long as they're still dependent on the IR cameras for position info - once they figure out a way to get 3D position info that accurately internal to the UAV, we're screwed.

Where did I put the number for that truck driving school...

That was absolutely crazy.. wow. And apparently the Germans have their own version...

I have one of those robot lawnmowers (it's like a roomba for your yard). Pretty slick when it's a hundred degrees outside and the grass is long... but this is much cooler. Or maybe what would be coolest of all is if it also did stuff like this. Or get teams of them to do stuff like this. ("I told you kids, get off of my lawn!!!") Heh heh.

Yes, but they are still WAY behind when it comes to musak for their informational videos.

While what they're doing with the quad rotor is very cool, the concept is nothing new. These have been on the market for years: http://www.draganfly.com/uav-helicopter/draganflyer-x6/
