a)You don't have a gunOriginally posted by MarillionFan View PostFly the fecking thing anywhere near me and I'll shoot the ******* thing out of the sky.
b)You would struggle to hit it - especially when I see you get your gun and fly away
c)Firing guns willy-nilly would get you in serious trouble, this isn't America
The serious point about not flying into other peoples' gardens is of course legit... don't do that.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

For me:Originally posted by d000hg View PostI think for me there's two potential use cases.
1)Something you can fly outside with a nice camera to explore wildlife and so on. Needs a decent range, generally more serious kit.
2)A toy maybe for indoors or the garden, especially if you can race/fight with a mate. The Parrot one looks fun.
OK, maybe 3:
3)As a coder, there must be cool things you can do. Like a follow-drone as mentioned, or other projects I cannot think of... swarming perhaps, make a real version of robot-quidditch, ...
(4) If stuck in a motorway traffic jam that stretches away over hill and dale to beyond the horizon, send a drone ahead to find out what the heck is going on!Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment

If you were a legit gun-owner you'd know damn well you can't go shooting into the air at other peoples' property.Originally posted by MarillionFan View Posta) Yes I do
b) I'm a member of a gun club
(c) My brother is the local Police Chief
What gun have you got then? What do you use it for?
A mate owns a wood and allows hunters to use it in return for a share of the spoils... used to get some guy turn up with a boot-full of dead birds irregularly.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
