Yeah, I'm an anarchist who's into 3d printing, CNC, CAD, drones, software, computer control loops, firearm design... I wonder how many goverment lists I'm on. TO THE FEDERAL AGENT READING THIS I WOULD LIKE TO REITERATE THAT I DO NOT BELIEVE IN OFFENSIVE REVOLUTIONARY VIOLENCE THIS IS A SINCERE POSITION AND NOT SOME COY "IN MINECRAFT" JOKE.

Ahem.

With the new toroidal propellors they're going to get even quieter too because they're getting rid of the tip vortices and spinning slower. It's a bad time to be an imperial invader, but this is really a leveling of the battlefield. I can't help but feel like all this tech is somewhat democratising access to lethal force.

The thing that's really chilling about this to me is that the attack is so personal and specific. It's not like people sitting in foxholes taking potshots, or directing a bombardment from an observer's spot miles away, you see the footage get right up close to your enemy and you have video of the entire thing from like 20m away. You watch how they respond to you specifically.
