And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Flying over Kangaroo Lake - a bit of local scenery
“Drone” is a broad term used to describe any kind of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). ... “Quadcopter” is a more specific term used to refer to a drone that is controlled by four rotors. It is also called a quadrotor or a quadrotor helicopter. The rotors on the quadcopter each consist of a motor and a propeller.
Now I know less than I did before. I have a Syma drone with 4 rotors, but apparently it is not a quadcopter. Go figger.

ReplyDeleteNope, Quad-copter.
DeleteThere is a difference?

When I hear the word "drone" I think of the military fixed wing remote controlled (I hope) aircraft or the four rotor small drones everyone else has.
