"Is there any point to which you would wish to draw my attention?"

Very beautiful. But from a geek point of view, if it's being controlled from the ground it's not technically a robot.
To be a robot, it would have to be programmed to make a certain number of decisions on it's own.

Beautiful.

Sad that somehow it will be used in MILITARY Applications.

If not already.

My thoughts exactly! Why use a drone when something so natural looking can be used.

Thanks for the link. That is a most beautiful mechanical bird in flight.

Incredible.

I was thinking the same thing, about military use. Just think of the intel we could gather that would help keep us safe!

Rowdy sounds good, just one question--what's that gull doing on your kitchen window sill? Smile

And that we have to keep ourselves safe from others is the sad part of it all...
