Seems that every RC model is now something used for surveillance and reconnaissance missions...

It must have dropped its surveillance payload pod when it hit the antenna.

I think this, and the plethora of others stories like it, should serve as a wakeup call to all of us!

We should advocate for the elimination of the entire RCGroups universe - if the Sri Lankan air force has acquired the technology to use a Hobbico Superstar for spying, it won't be long before Al Queda uses a Multiplex Twinstar for a biological attack on the hapless denizens of some American metropolis. Our presence here on the 'net is providing comfort and material support to those who wish to destroy our very way of life!

My patriotism compells me to renounce RC flying for ever! I won't even say the word out loud in public anymore!
