voyeurs and oddballs Crab???
Just wait til they start painting the yellow?
To be honest large model helicopters have been flying for years but the thing is it took people years to learn how to fly them properly, and they needed clubs input and expertise to learn, that gave clubs time to ingrain a sense of responsibility and respect of self and others and the hobby. Drones on the other hand have so many gyros removing the need for developed skills any jack the lad with a £1000 can buy a fairly decent piece of equipment and fly it out of the box, convincing himself he is flying it, the latter group are to be found hanging around runways ends at heathrow and the like simply because they can flick a switch and need no other aid to fly the thing
