grantmc 59 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Here's quite an amazing way to take a selfie. Still in development certainly but a very simple to operate gyrocopter camera that you can pre-order for January delivery at US$500. Watch the 2 minute video! Now place the pre-order : Lily Cameras Link to post Share on other sites

Black Panther 1,822 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Am I the only vaguely disconcerted by this? The police in the US use drones and are lobbying the politicians to arm them. The US govt uses drones routinely to kill anyone they want, anywhere. Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 382 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Yes, yes you are. This is a toy for selfies. Not a drone to hunt and kill enemies of the state. Link to post Share on other sites
ScottiE 174 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Awesome reconn tool for a light airs coastal though - if only the range was another 5 or 10 nm! Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,822 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Well I didn't say I was paranoid about it, just vaguely disconcerted as I watch the technology spread. Link to post Share on other sites
grantmc 59 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 It only shoots pictures and will only focus on the homing device. It's a only a sophisticated toy. Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,822 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 And any 15 yo with a technical bent could reprogram it. Our photographer uses a drone for house photos, he could sit outside your window with full HD video and you wouldn't know it was there. Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,822 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 That's for me to know and you knot to find out. Link to post Share on other sites
MasterOfDisaster 0 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 And any 15 yo with a technical bent could reprogram it. Our photographer uses a drone for house photos, he could sit outside your window with full HD video and you wouldn't know it was there. These little quadcopters are anything but stealthy. The promotional footage doesn't carry with it the high-pitched distinctive electric prop whine that gives away all small-scale RC aircraft. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9cRjMip_fo Link to post Share on other sites

Yes it would be, but sadly an RPAS with that range is currently illegal in NZ. They have to remain in line of sight of the operator. Link to post Share on other sites
