The idea they are not human controlled is absurd.

They handle like nothing else. There is literally nothing else to compare them to so they seem almost alien. You could dive bomb a gate yourself after maybe 10 hours of practice in a simulator.

Of course the first time you try you won't even be able to keep the drone in the air but really quickly the controls become second nature.

The irony is the guys at the park were most likely not even great pilots. Look up Mr Steele on youtube if you want to watch someone do really inhuman stuff.

Even top of the DJI drones (which are not exactly freestyle/racy) would top out at around 30 minutes.

Not implying aliens, but I wish we had that kind of battery technology in my Nazgul5, if it's a drone they've seen.

But +1 humanity’s fucked, don’t Google Slaughterbots but maybe Google how to build an EMP, it’s easier than you think.

Problem is you’re fighting path loss which is exponential with distance, whereas the power of your emitter is scaling linearly.

No, EM radiation power decays quadratic with the distance, not exponentially.

But you want to shield the parts which do not directly need to receive rf signals, like the mainboard.

Sounds like a good way to get on a list.

There's also been severe availability issues with the DJI gear.
