That one is good for roofs, but you still need one for the crawl.

Rover 'Spy Tank' Wirelessly Controlled by Your iPhone or iPad - Mac Rumors (http://www.macrumors.com/2011/09/26/rover-spy-tank-wirelessly-controlled-by-your-iphone-or-ipad/)I gave up on the spy copter. Too many windy days around here. (Think crash landing on that roof you couldn't reach).

But the tank I could use!
If it shoot snakes and rats, even better! :D

@Gunnar: Nice for the price.

@John: I crashed two with single rotors. I am waiting on versions 4.0 or higher for another jaunt into the blue.

Bob got a Parrot AR drone to play with. Unfortunately, unless it is dead calm, it's very difficult to control. Also, trying to see the screen to control it is very hard when you're outside in bright sunlight. So for right now, it remains a toy.
