I don't. But drones sure as hell killed that RC helicopter fad that was so hot a while back, didn't they? I think you can get "starter" drones for under $200 now, with cameras. Not good drones, and not good cameras, but the equivalent of the single-shot bolt .22, maybe.
If I was going into the Air Force. I’d want my MOS to be a Drone Pilot.
Sitting in a comfortable, high backed chair, with an array of screens showing me the battlefield full of bad guys. All them beards and sandal wearing camel fûckers waiting for me to vaporize them with a quick toggle, then button press.
Whew ! Long day at work...Beers anyone?

That sure is safer but not nowhere near as much fun.
Middle daughter did it in MI via satellite uplink outta bragg and then outta the UAE deployed for 6 months. 4 yrs for a 3 letter agency basically. The 3 letter types can't take the shot per posse comatatus. Supposedly... but we know how that really works when push comes to shove in back water channels and matters Active duty can take the shot....
She did her 4 yrs. Got out as a O3 in July 2020. Now flies for a 3 letter agency. And someone else hits the prompt button when their screen goes black, while she has the bird on her screen for the 4 or 5 min run to tgt and bda.
She is making bank. GS 11 pay to start with local area pay supplement. Desert southwest area... Says now that Afghanistan is done her job is boring. Well I can be bored all day long long for what she is making as a 27yr old.. 🙄🙄🙄🥴🥴🥴🤔🤔🤔🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🥴🥴🥴

Do they have a Top Gun school for drone pilots? You know. Danger zone and everything…
Back in January of 2020 long time Campfire member "johnw" posted about his experience and info on drones along with some videos taken with his. Might try shooting him a PM...
