Question is....will it blend!?



[avedic]

Now...imagine...in 10 years, 50,000 of these things, 10 times smaller, in formation, over your neighborhood.

[gvjpersonal]

you'd be lucky if u get 10 years.. :P

[Zach Signorino]

does anyone know the hardware they used to build these? just kinda curious

[ORCASMAN]

bone structure of N.W.O.

[FontediCalore]

they'll probably invent a device that fries any solid state chip within 200 yards, press a button and they'll all drop

[Novak Djokovic]

there's some good stabilisation programs to solve that problem

[Isayno Noosok]

you can really be sure of that, i mean look at what people in the the 19th century predicted about the year 2000

[Tip345]

The problem = When someone buys one of these, weaponizes with a gun, flies it into a football arena and starts spraying people.

[Tip345]

Now imagine one of your windows broken in by police and 10 of these, weaponized with tazers, and guns flying in, preprogrammed to quickly react and subdue any house, structure, library, mall, school... Interesting. Do the risk outweigh the rewards?

What effect would wind have on the stability of these quads?
