Just saw a news items about drones. There is some kind of exhibition in
town with 40 exhibitors and 200 delegates.
If a person was interested in one of the toys it might be worth the price of admission.


Flying RC airplanes is, IMHO, fun. I've flown the multirotors, but don't get a kick
out of it. Except for small ones for the grandkids, I'd not be interested in buying
one. And, I've found that flying a helicopter and then flying an airplane pose a
problem. 'Up' for a helicopter is 'down' for an airplane using the transmitter
controls. That can get interesting.


My neighbor Henc is always bugging me to buy a little drone but I am
still not sure what I would do with it. It looks like something I
would play with a few times and then put it away. It might be
interesting to explore the mangroves that you can't walk into but if
the drone went down, you would have to I suppose.


I have an indoor copter. IR link. Grandkids like it. Was about $10.
