Merseyside Pollce have a new toy….er…I mean crime-fighting tool. According to this BBC story, they are testing radio-control helicopters with CCTV payloads.
They hope this pseudo UAV will help them mount general surveillance of the population at football matches and suchlike.
They point out that it ‘only’ weighs 1kg “about the same as a bag of sugar”. Remember that when this “bag of sugar” is falling your way, blades spinning.
One final point; why do they always paint these things black?
