Found this drone online at Tesco for £12 which seems like a pricing mistake! The RRP for this drone is £50. Seen the same drone on PC world for £47. Get it before they notice!

Ok cool - so it's essentially a toy. What about the really pricey ones I have seen for a grand or so - can I use those to eliminate my enemies?

Someone mentioned on here a couple of weeks ago about a camera drone at Maplins for £25. Not sure on the thread, or the drone model, but maybe worth a look/post if anyone can find it
Right so basically it's a sex thing? If my wife cheats I can run off with the neighbours teenage (over 16) daughter having surreptitiously checked out the goods first?

If I threw it in the air and let it fall back down it's probably a minute of fly time!
