Scouting with drones?

Anyone have any connections in the Navy? I could use one of these to scout some marsh land:

I think that's the one I shot at with my .50 muzzleloader .

Looks liek they were using it for training at Patuxent NAS and someone just failed that class LOL.

 

I use Google-Earth to scout trails and clearcuts, for access.

Feels like a CIA drone sometimes.

 

We were walking through the mall a month or so ago and came across a guy peddling the bigger remote copters. They were suppose to be pretty silent. The first thought that came across my mind was how I could use it for scouting and mount a camera on it. Apparently the wife seen the wheels turning and told me " NO !!!! ". LOL

It only had a 70 yard range so I let her win that round. :p If it would have had a 200 yard range, it would have interested me.

I have a friend that scouts with an Ultralite.
