No, not yet around here, but I read nickel plated #6's are the best to bring them down and I heard some fellers in South Carolina know how to skin one though. They said it has a kinda metallic-lithium taste though- but fried up good in beer batter you'll never know it.

Next to unbeliveable! I want one! If they could build a manned one I dont think any liveing thing could stand those G forces! It would be fun to do battle with hawks etc, but the bird lovers would skin you!

Imagine a swarm of these sweeping a road for IED's ahead of a convoy!
Or looking for insurgents in a small compound!

Science is wonderful when used for good.

This world is getting so high tech! For every military item invented soon someone comes up with a counter measure. It could be a push botton war, our engineers are smarter than yours!
Maybe we need to go back 4,000 years and have our wars decided by two champions. David against Golieth.
You never will see a president go slug it out one on one with a mulah or tribal leader though. Its easier and safer to hype up a bunch of kids to go lay their lives on the line.
