North Korean Drone

Another reason why everyone should stop calling our Phantoms, drones. Fearless leader likes to fly them now.

I'm sorry dude, but even if it's from "North Korean Internet", it is still a photoshopped picture.

I'm pretty sure the last thing China is exporting to North Korea is DJI Phantoms, and I guarantee you
no one in the U.S is selling to them, and therefore nobody in the EU.

This is a FAKE photograph.

I've had a few of these moments on here but couldn't bring myself to tear down the wall and explain it.

Love the fact that there is a tile add at the bottom of the article. Maybe the dear leader will be fitting them in the future so he can find his drones :lol:

Eric Cheng, ( DJI's director of aerial photography ) calls them drones. Apparently he's not worried. I think he should reconsider his use of the word drone. :|

It's all for sales. Too many people a scared of the word drone and too many pilots thinks its cool. Most of our opposition is from people who can't differentiate between a bomb dropping drone, and a plastic 4 prop bird. Unfortunately, most of our lawmakers are the former. The government is notorious with passing false information and making things look bad :mrgreen: when they should be sanctioned and studied.

I explain to everyone that drones are planes that kill people, what I fly is a quadcopter, which is basically a new helicopter design. You don't see people calling planes helicopters, do you?

When I don't feel like getting to it I just correct them by saying, "it's not a drone, it's a droid."
