These Orbiter Mini UAVs look pretty cool.

Thought the data link range was pretty poor.

Anyone know the law with regard to hobby UAVs? I like the tail-less design of this thing.

wouldn't they be classed as a type of hobby plane? Unless you're using them for secret bombing runs on your neighbours.

They cost about half a million each.. that's an expensive hobby =p

80% of the capability for €200, or a bit more functionality for €500,000...

(Oh and you don't have to lug a big rubber bungee cord around with you)

Your money is safe with Oglaigh na hEireann!

That thing would probably have difficulties in a sneeze, let alone a light wind.
