In April a group of Finnish farmers outfitted a spindly black drone with a remote-controlled chainsaw and filmed it decapitating snowmen. They called it “Killer Drone.” More formally it was a DJI S1000.

四月，一群芬兰农民装备了一架细长黑色、带有遥控电锯的无人机并拍摄下它砍下雪人头部的画面。他们称呼它为“凶手无人机”。更正式的称呼为大疆S1000。

This spring marine biologists flew a drone over the Sea of Cortez to capture samples of the fluid sprayed from the blowholes of blue whales. They called it “SnotBot.” It was a DJI Inspire 1.

这个春季，海洋生物学家们驾驶一架无人机飞越加利福尼亚湾，采集从蓝鲸头顶的呼吸孔喷射出的液体标本。他们称它为“鼻涕机器人”。这架无人机是大疆Inspire 1。

In March 2015 two men in Ottawa equipped a sleek white drone with Roman candle fireworks and sprinted away shirtless as the machine fired spark-spewing projectiles. They called it “Roman Candle Attack Drone 2.0.” It was a DJI Phantom 2.

2015年三月，两个男人在渥太华装备了一架有光泽的白色、带有罗马烛光烟花的无人机并在这架机器发射喷射火花的弹丸时裸奔。他们称它为“罗马烛光袭击无人机2.0”.这架无人机是大疆 Phantom 2。

DJI which stands for Da-Jiang Innovations is a midsize company based in Shenzhen China and it essentially put recreational drone-flying on the map. Fans call it the “Apple of drones” and for good reason — the company owns 70% of the consumer drone market analysts say. As of March it was valued atabout $8 billion. It may be the first Chinese company to create and then dominate a hot new class of consumer electronics. 

DIJ代表大疆创新科技有限公司，这是一家中等规模的中国深圳公司，它从本质上使娱乐无人机飞行摆上台面。粉丝们称呼它为“无人机中的苹果”，而这是有原因的——据专家称这家公司占据70%无人机消费市场份额。截至三月它的估价约80亿美金。它可能是头一家创造并支配着一个热门新兴消费电子工业种类的中国公司。

As China’s decades-long investment and exports-driven “economic miracle” comes to an end the Chinese government is attempting to boost innovation to keep the country’s economy afloat. Officials are investing billions of yuan in gleaming new office parks university engineering programs and start-up incubators.

当中国数十年投资和出口驱动的“经济奇迹”结束，中国政府正尝试促进创新来维持国家免于经济困难。行政官员投资了上亿人民币在闪亮的新办公楼区、大学工程项目和创新启动孵化器上。

I use my drone to pick up booze at the local liquor store. Both the owner and I are enthusiasts so he accommodates my needs. Hard liquor only.

我用我的无人机去到本地的烟酒店去拿我的酒。 店主和我都是无人机爱好者所以他顺着我，但仅仅是烈性酒。

Glad to hear this success story. Though not a mainstream product like a phone or digital camera these drones can be used for a vast variety of tasks that could not be done as fast cheap or easy as a drone could do it. I'm also so glad I sold my go pro stock. Where the heck is their drone? They are about 2 years late to the game.

很高兴听到这个成功的故事。虽然不是一个像电话或者数码相机一样的主流产品，但这些无人机可以被用来执行无人机所擅长的任务。我也很高兴出售了我的go pro股票。他们的无人机到底tm在哪，他们已经晚了两年了。

I'd like to see more drones flying over wildfires and their owners posting the videos on the internet. We just do not have enough of those.

我更愿意看到人们将无人机派往森林大火现场，并将相关视频发布到网上。我们只是有的这些还不够。

The FAA is going after the creator of the "hand gun firing drone". That platform didn't work so well!

美联邦航空管理局正在追捕“手枪射击无人机”的创造者。那个平台不太好用！

@Mike 64 : Actually it worked too well.

回楼上，实际上它很好用。

The real money to be made is in anti-drone tech that instantly turns them off letting them auto-rotate into the ground camera first so the operator can enjoy their last view.

反无人机技术应该大有可为，这种技术可以关掉无人机使其自动旋转落地，相机先着地，那些操作者可享受它们最后的画面。

@InkandQuill no it's not it's just like use cellphone signal jammer
or like hacking into someone's home wireless network
it's violation of federal law

回楼上，不，不是这样的。就像你使用了手机信号干扰器，或者像黑客一样潜入别人的家庭无线网络，这违反了联邦法律。

@jjlovet Law shmaw. I'd hate to be the Feds trying track down the perps lol.

回楼上，法律。我讨厌被联邦调查局当成罪犯。
