WHile surfing this morning I stumbled across a pretty cool web site where members are doing some amazing things building and operating their very own UAV's... DIY Drones here's a little snippet from the FAQ page
Just for fun, I'd love to get one of those in the air, and point it over the Groom Lake area of Nevada.. Just to see what would happen
Okay here's the real issue... we need to start coming up with an excuse so my wife will gladly let me take on yet another very expensive hobby... Maybe something along that lines of how it will help her garden grow and pick out the best sales prices??? now that's a real head scratch er
Just tell your wife... Just tell your wife....that you want the drone to use for aerial crop dusting of her tomatoe crop....it's the best and most cost effective way of derris crop dusting....really it is!
I'll give it a shot, but she's already rolling her eyes at me just for thinking about it... might have to kick in a generous infusion of Jewelry too...???
If I were a rabbit...... If I were a rabbit....I'd steer clear of Farmer McDonald's carrot patch too, if it were patrolled with a chain gun armed DIY drone!!! Yikes!!!
I've been checking that site from time to time for the last couple of years. The technology is pretty accessible, within reach of common people.
For years I wanted to get into RC model planes... I promised myself that once the last of my kids is out of the house I take up the hobby... problems is not only are my kids not going... their bring in home grand-babies... Jeez cant win nowadays can ya?
