In your dreams Doc, the only way any consumer grade UAV could evade Mr or Mrs E would be by strapping a rocket to it (gives new meaning to RTH!!) or by fitting defensive equipment (smother net, repellent gas or a weapon). All of which adds weight and would not be practical even if they were available.

I'd think that would hurt like hell. It does look like there is a glove like thing protecting its talons.

Still, pretty cool.

Maybe a severe case of indigestion from white plastic and a bit gunshy due to leg lacerations.
