$50,000 Mini-Helicopter May be UAV for Everyone

Rafe Needleman at C|net is impressed with the device from Aeryon which packs into a suitcase-sized create and can fly for 20 minutes at at time up to 500 feet (FAA rules) and take digital pictures or stream live video. Another great feature: it’s got enough onboard stability that anyone can “steer” it by pointing to a location on a map. For now, the Canada-based company can only demo it in that country. It hopes for FAA ok within about six months.
