Gentle AKA BORRRRRRING:

I’ll warn you, this video is the opposite of exciting.  The “Drone Defender” looks like a run of the mill AR-15 style platform, with a hedge trimmer and picatinny rail mounded DSL modem.  WOULD NOT OPERATE WITH.  Ugh, like could they have even made it badass looking?

Oooo I see at 1:27 they allow “custom form factors”.  If I ran an department that needed these I’d troll my guys so hard and just get them to custom make it way more embarrassing than the one in the video.

I’d like to know how they manage those gentle landings as depicted in the video.  I could see a system used to block the RF communication all together, or jam it somehow… but in order to set a quadcopter down, isn’t it just like a helicopter where you decrease the rotor speed?  Hows the hedge trimmer and DSL modem accomplishing that with out knowing how to control every quadcopter commercially produced / homemade?

If Batalle Innovations didn’t look like a legit outfit (judging by their YouTube channel), I’d call shenanigans.  Looks like you can’t get one even if you had a use for it.  They still need FCC approval.  You can read more about it on their website.

Thoughts?
