This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I've flown a number of drones and the best drone I've flown that clocks in under £100 is a tiny-whoop and they're absolutely not fit for combat lol.

I really hope that "tiny-whoop" is its official name

Tiny-whoop more reffers to a class of FPVs rather than any specific drone. They're small enough to be flown around indoors and typically weigh in at under 25g TOM. I guess you could use one for surveillance or scoping out a building in the field but defo not for combat lol

I'm honestly getting confused by this thread now with how many of you are talking about frankly unrelated stuff. These aren't for "combat" so much as they are for flying an explosive to a target one time and not surviving. The article used a generic picture.
