Some kenyan engineer claims on national tv (KTN) to have come up with a drone, but further research reveals that THE SO CALLED DRONE is A DJI PHANTOM QUADCOPTER http://www.gizmag.com/dj...nmuse-quadcopter/27028/

I you are missing the point! Did he state that itbwas the only quad on the planet? I myself have built a quadrotor google Raiyacopter. Designs are available on the internet for those with the time and patience. If someone built an OSCar (open source car) would you take away the credit from them? After all he has BUILT something.

Blame the media. The guy clearly says he purchased it. Maybe the reporters don't know the meaning of the word 'invented'

Quad-copters were around before the young man started crawling.....and the drone Lewa conservancy are using for patrolling is not that cheap toy.....Poor boy!...anyway,i like his idea of filming weddings and events from above.It's better than climbing trees.
