This video is called quadcopter fishing. Seems like a 39 dollar Syma X1 could be rigged up to do the same thing. If you're into that kinda thing...
The first time I flew an RC helicopter outside my cat grabbed it and drug it away. He actually clawed or chewed a wire off of it and I had to solder it back on using a paper clip as a soldering iron by heating it up on the stove. Fortunately that was the only time he ever messed with it.
I think my next helicopter is going to be a V949 because it has lights on it and can be flown at night. If you get any reports of UFO's in the future maybe that's what they will actually be seeing. Though there's no telling, living this close to the base. I found a WL Toys V949 on Ebay pretty cheap. Just a few dollars more than the X1's from Amazon.com. In addition to lights some of the gears are made out of metal. Perhaps it is made better than the X1 and will be worth the extra few dollars.
