Now you must be careful. If you ever had any interest in flying and watch too many of those videos, then you will not be able to leave a hobby store without a big box anymore. It's really addictive.
Anyway, I would not really want to use a nice big helicopter for some kind of air combat. The risk of collisions or losin control s too big. For such a purpoe I would modify a smaller, older or cheaper model. Recording the hits and perhaps reporting them by telemetry might make an interesting microcontroller project.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

That seems a little unlikely. It's surely that the image is within your field of normal vision (even the most myopic of us has one)! I'd be very interested to hear from a hyperopic reviewer on this.

Well, I need quite strong glasses (different prescription each eye!) but when I put it on, it was a bit squiffy for a few seconds then it evened out and I could see!!
I too would like to know if its just me or by design!

I am so shocked to learn that some editors were more concerned with making filthy lucre than being rivers of purest objectivity to the world: [^].
Amazon/GitHub hacked by bit-coin miners, the blood-moon coming on the 28th., ISIS driving around in Humvees, increasing frequencies of robot-driver cars crashing, pilots in mid-air flashed by lasers, glaciers melting, a tsunami of migrants everywhere, my body aging ...
It's like these little things are starting to get to me: why do they have to happen at a time like this ... when I'm about to have a birthday tomorrow
cheers, Bill

Don't worry about the migrants - you're safe - they are all going to end up in Germany
Have a great day tomorrow!
