15. Expensive LOL
Edited on Sun Nov-27-11 08:26 PM by bl968
A small drone with wireless camera is only $500, and you can even control it from your iphone. Imagine what you can get for $5,000-10,000... Which no police agency would have problems affording with homeland security giving out grants like candy...

Check out some of the videos on youtube.

For example this isn't the same drone but it gives you an idea of how far something like this can go...
