I almost clicked the mouse button to order the 1st version of the Parrot AR.Drone last year. It was cool and affordable enough for me to use it for airsoft events, able to get a bird's eyeview of the action going on and that would make it cool for reporting airsoft events at Popular Airsoft.

Pistol Pete sent us a link from the Kit Up! about Ricky the Redneck of Vizual Candi Productions. The guys there are impressed about his gun handling skills: "Look at how he shoots on the move…I haven’t seen anything that smooth since…well, I honestly don’t know that I’ve ever seen anything move this way.

Optimus Prime missed about this new product from Alta Industries as he swears by their knee pads and he won't get another set of knee pads made by another manufacturer with the exception of the integrated knee pads that come with his UR-Tactical battle trousers. He has been a fan of the AltaLok knee pads as they're the only brand for him that won't slip and would tenaciously hang around his knees. So far, we do agree with him and we're sure he has already ordered this new product from Alta Industries.
