How do you get a sweet little 80-year-old lady to say the "F" word?

Get another sweet little 80-year-old lady to yell, "BINGO"!

interesting to look back 3 years ago and see how rapidly is multirotor market developing, in just 3 years we got so many feathures and applications for souch machines. rc helis cant even compare with that.

If you can get bbc iplayer then watch the series "Earthflight". Some amazing footage on it captured using remote planes that look like vultures, multirotors, microlights and many others. Also cameras on the backs of birds in flight.
Amazing footage well worth the watch.
Well you can bump and grind, If it's good for your mind
Well you can twist and shout, Let it all hang out

But you won't fool the children of the Revolution
