At least the word drone is being used in a positive light in this one. Great idea if you can get it in the air quick enough. If someone is far enough away this could be an incredible idea. People have been toying with this for a while but now it looks like it is in test.

I thought the guy was going to reach up for the life saver and pull the copter out of the sky. Kind'a hard to judge depth (when you're over the target) when the bird/target are that far away.

Good to see more on the "positive side of drones."

FANTASTIC. I'm going to post this on FB. Awesome positive press.

Something positive from a drone??? That'll never get much media coverage.

*We* can be the media too, these days. That's why I shared this video on Facebook, and told everyone I know about it. I have to do my part to help the world's perception of these "awful, dangerous, creepy, spy-machines" we enjoy flying.

The piece gives no idea how drones help at all and it's hard to imagine in what way they are useful.
The drone guy's explanation doesn't explain anything.
it allows you to literally draw a big circle in the air as we're filming in 4K .. beautiful footage
