Barking mad! Is that a spacehopper underneath?
I saw on the news this week that Merseyside Police lost their radio controlled micro-copter drone thing. It crashed into the Mersey, I think they said it was operator error - whoops! Apparently it cost £11,000 or so, and they won't be replacing it.

Pretty cool...but I'd hate to be sitting in that thing if it tipped in mid air and rolled over on it's head...Don't think the helmet will help much..
