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/

Surely

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.


Am also thinking the same...


Masukush, he dint even call it a Quad rather a drone, and goes on to say that there are no drones in Kenya yet Ol Pajeta now uses drones to track elephants and curb poaching. As he demonstrates, he forgets the invention story and says he purchased it. My issue is...why is the media so much in a rush to publish news without research? Surely there's a diff btn a quad and a drone, quads are used by kids in Europe ata kucheza.

Anyway, anyone with info about the drone being assembled at KU?

Did he have to put on safety gear (helmet and apron) to play with a toy?

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