Seems mostly done for the cool factor. But maybe the football team can use them for overhead shots of practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only news because it was called a drone in the press release. It's not a drone, it's a freaken RC helicopter with a GoPro. Nothing to see here.
