I’m no sissy, but I don’t like airplanes. And man, don’t be shouting “eclipse” or I’ll get angry! But I like this helicopter: it’s so small, much better than that big Boeing thing. They say it’s the “worlds smallest and most capable Unmanned Aircraft System”. The Black Hornet is designed to aid soldiers in the field, or allow rescuers to get a camera into dangerous places. It’s got a tiny camera in, you see, like a suped-up toy. Any sucker can carry it in a pocket and launch it by hand. It’s 4 inches big and weighs just 20 grams. 20 grams? What kinda fool weight is that? Say 0.04 pounds! Should be flyin’ in ’09. Unlike me. [Prox dynamics via Pop Sci]
