    This might be an unpopular sentiment on this site, but there is something so sincerely wrong with what's being done to that insect. Wrong on so many levels, and yet, I can't deny that that's future. What can be done, will be done.

    on that same site scroll down and check out the autonomous helicopter and then apply that type of control to a beetle, simply amazing

    I like the accompanying image, of a freaky ass rhinoceros beetle, then say that it has no problem taking flight.


    When roaches fly, they make a very sickening "patatatatatat" noise with their brown ugly wings clapping at each other.


    Just thought I'd say that.

    @RiceBandit: I have. When I was staying in a rental house in Grenada, one of those "mahogany birds" flew in through the window and hit the wall with a dull little thud, but it flew right over my head and I even felt the wind of its nasty little airfoils on the side of my face. I didn't sleep the rest of the night lol.
