Might be a stupid question....but is there anything to distinguish a "drone" apart from a radio control helicopter or airplane?

One has a camera.

All drones have cameras?

You can add mini wireless ones to any drone. Some come equip the $$$ ones.

I can't wait till drones show up in, let's say, a less populated area and one of my blush shaded neck friends shoot it down with a shot gun. You know it's going to happen folks.

There's a town in Colorado that offers a bounty to any of its residents that shoots down a drone.

I've always wanted to go out west and hunt. I guess hunting drones would save on taxidermy fees.

It was St. X scouting the Purples.

 

Will need all of the help they can get.

That's why you'll never have pizza delivered by a drone. One of your neighbors would shoot it down before it got to you.

 

You ever picked buckshot out of a pepperoni pizza? Miss one piece and your on the way to the dentist.

Good Grief! There are military drones and drones! Some day they may even deliver you a pizza. You think they are going to shoot a missile into the stands? You should read up on things.

 

Maybe you need to read up on things. If you read post #11 of this thread you would have seen my actual perspective was poking fun at the drone issue. With that being said, I just gave a talk at a conference on the possibility of drones affecting our Supply Chain network in the future and co-presented with a consultant to Amazon. Do you want to know more about them Mr. Zero? Maybe I could arrange a book on drones to be air dropped to your front porch along with the latest addition of "How to Eradicate Your Antagonistic and Sarcastic Self in 30 Days!". No charge. I will pick up the tab for both.

No, all do not. Drones which are actually Quad Rotor helicopters just like remote control planes and helicopters may be fitted with a camera, usually a GoPro.

Drone technology demonstrated locally

Glad to see St. X finally using the runway and drone launch pad that was installed two years ago....
