I don't follow the drone technology too closely, but came across this video of one of those quad copters. I guess it is special built, about $700 in parts or something. I just can't believe how fast this thing is. As I watched this, I imagined if I had a shotgun and tried to shoot it down, it dawned on me, it might be fast enough to dodge the shot.. The guy piloting it obviously knows what he is doing, but I had no idea these things were this fast.

 
FWIW, I don't think that is typical. I think he put alot of work into it to get it to that point.
 
But look what possibilities something like this open up?
