Not even, they're closer to $450

Not the ones they're using. These drones aren't the size of the ones at best buy. The explodey bits on em cost a fair price.

They're just 7" analog fpv drones. I fly them

Still needs a few hundred of ammo to do any damage. Can’t just crash the drone by itself.

[–] Voyajer@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well yeah, but we're talking about the drone itself.

You're correct, thermal camera equipped drones cost much more.

Thermal cameras in general are so expensive even at low resolutions. I've wanted to try mounting my flir to one of my quads but I can't justify the risk.
