DIY Drones. RC-CAM: R/C Model Video Projects and More! Miniature UAV. A miniature UAV or Small UAV (SUAV),[1] is an unmanned aerial vehicle small enough to be man-portable. Miniature UAVs range from micro air vehicles (MAVs) that can be carried by an infantryman, to man-portable UAVs that can be carried and launched like an infantry anti-aircraft missile.
MAVs and mesicopters[edit] The notion that small, even very small, UAVs might have practical uses arose in the early 1990s. In 1992, DARPA conducted a workshop titled "Future Technology-Driven Revolutions In Military Operations". One of the topics in the workshop was "mobile microrobots". The idea of using very small "microdrones" was discussed, and after initial skepticism the idea started to gain momentum.
The RAND Corporation released a paper on the microdrone concept in 1994 that was widely circulated (Reference 12). The studies demonstrated that the concept was feasible.

The Robot MarketPlace & Team Nightmare - BattleBots & Combat Rob. Paparazzi Open Source Autopilot. The Booz Thread. Starting this thread to separate the Booz information away from the huge general Paparazzi thread and as requested by the PPZ store owner so as not to advertise in his thread. Booz is Quad Rotor UAV project that uses some of the Paparazzi code as its base, it is Open Source and licensed under the GPL license.
This thread will be a place for all things Booz including the progress of the Booz hardware myself and Gussy are getting made. This will be for sale shortly (around one week) and will sell for US$850 including cables. It has the following features: Anyway, this thread is for all things Booz. Dragonflyer X6 UAV Helicopter.

Insurgents Intercept Drone Video in King-Size Security Breach (U. In Iraq and Afghanistan, the U.S. military depends on an array of drones to snoop on and stalk insurgents. Now it looks as if insurgents are tapping into those same drones’ broadcasts, to see what the flying robot spies see. If true — and widespread — it’s potentially one of the most serious military security breaches in years. “U.S. military personnel in Iraq discovered the problem late last year when they apprehended a Shiite militant whose laptop contained files of intercepted drone video feeds,” Wall Street Journal reports. “In July, the U.S. military found pirated drone video feeds on other militant laptops, leading some officials to conclude that militant groups trained and funded by Iran were regularly intercepting feeds.” How’d the militants manage to get access to such secret data? Using cheap, downloadable programs like SkyGrabber, militants were apparently able to watch and record the video feed — and potentially be tipped off when U.S. and coalition forces are stalking them.
