Apparently, the FAA just got their hands spanked by a Federal Judge for overstepping their authority with respect to drones:

The beer delivery drone mentioned in the article:


And a test conducted by Dominos for the delivery of pizzas:

I think there are some quadcopters flying out of Aeroclub Chapala. http://www.aeroclubchapala.com/?p=368
They were flying at night with high output leds and there were a lot of U.F.O. sitings. The quads can hover and are capable of very rapid ascent/descent. They can be programmed for extremely complicated maneuvers and flightpaths. One of the largest factories is located near Tijuana - it was started by a former editor of "Wired" magazine.

Won't the residents of Deer Trail, CO get a real surprise when drones start firing back at them in self defense? I can just envision that law suit!
