    This was flying around the beach. Was hovering over a rather attractive chick for a while. She moved her chair 100 yards.
    It handled the 10mph wind just fine. My wife already said "I guess there's a drone purchase in our future" :):

    Oh golly, now we have a whole new type of 'peeping-toms'. :ugh:

    Hey, if we're gonna say it's 'okay' for guys to do that, then we should ALSO make it legal to :ar15: right out of the air. Have a whole new type of 'skeet shooting'! :lmfao:

    I wondered what choke to use on my o/u for drones. Problem was I am too envious of the guy flying it to even think of harming it :)

    i would use mine for good, like scouting for fish from above, flying my line out when surf fishing, looking at hot chicks from above, stuff like that

    THAT is why 'Murica is still the greatest place in the world! FAA says drones are ok, some ingenious individual invents the MK1 Mod 0 Pervantor Drone! Wonder what kind of cameras he's using?

    We're in Ft Wayne for a couple of days. We were at the Drum & Bugle Corps show alst night and one was flying over the stadium. It was pretty windy, looked like it might storm a couple of times, and the drone had no problem at all.

    I wondered what choke to use on my o/u for drones.

    Extra full or turkey choke with copper plated number 4 shot would be my first guess. They do not seem to move very fast horizontally, so I do not think you would need to lead them very much, maybe 1/2 a barrel width.

    Looks like this setup: In automatic mode (gyro and gps enabled) 10-20 mph wind doesn't really bother them. In manual mode it flies like a helicopter.
