Title: Dragonflyer X6
Post by: ♠SARKID♠ on September 09, 2008, 07:30:07 AM
This has got to be the most advanced non-military RC aircraft ever.  Extremely stable, real-time video, 1080p HD video, 10.1 megapixel still, low-lux, FLIR, and manual control with GPS position hold.  This thing would be a great SAR platform...that is if you can get over the $15,000 price tag (hello Homeland Security grants!)  That, or I'm just having another "I WANT ONE" moment.

Defenitely check out some of the videos (http://www.draganfly.com/uav-helicopter/draganflyer-x6/gallery/videos/).

This would be awesome for damage assessment, site surveillance, and missing persons (yay FLIR).  The radio range is about a third of a mile.
