// Gizmag Emerging Technology Magazine

Conventional drones are often billed as portable, though they're also often a collection of rods, rotors, and other bits and pieces that are perfect for catching on things and getting tangled.

http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/air-force-official-removed/2016/02/11/id/713966/
