Droning on

I had a new 'unmanned aerial observation craft' demonstrated to me this evening.

The operator (remote pilot?) was so enthusiastic and informative, never was the word 'drone' so inappropriate! Amazingly versatile, it shot off into the night sky, hovered perfectly at quite some height, sent back crystal clear high-def images and then returned automatically to its take off position.

I felt so inadequate pointing my little lens at it from the planet's surface :-/
