Should Quadrotors All Look Like This?

I dunno, the payload capacity of these things is shocking until you get to Trex 600 size or above, even at that point it's only "ok", definitely not "good".

At that point (& cost) there are cheaper, more effective (what a cold term) and just down right more terrifying ways, to induce terror.

The small UAVs are destined mainly for aerial photography; they are awesome at that, no question.

Ya, if my mission was to weaponize one of these (full disclosure: I've done sw for military UAVs and theater of war information sharing) I'd have it hover/dart above the theater to generate intel and coordinates for conventional weapons.
