I'm amazed to see the growing use of drones..... why send a policeman up a dark alley after a knife or gunman when you can send a drone!

Are the contacts for the battery supposed to stick out of the cover like that? I've never used that type of connector (I use XT150s). Seems like a Lipo Fire just waiting to happen after an accidental short.
 


I issued an email item about 1 1/2 years ago predicting Multirotors would soon have facial recognition cameras c/w tasers someday?
Recipients thought it was a bit over the top.... but not anymore..... told ya so!!!!

It's completely unpractical........... It would be like mounting a paintball gun on a quad and actually trying to hit some one who is avoiding it. Plus, who's going to operate it? A police officer with no real flight experience?

It's just people going.......hey if we did this.......we could sale it to the police.............

Just my basic thoughts.

Thanks,
Chris
