The hawk tipping drones: Nature 1, Technology 0 [video] – SUN Newspapers

Christopher Schmidt had a mighty surprise when he was filming with his quadricóptero (a drone, unmanned aircraft with four propellers) this Wednesday in Boston, USA.

When the unit flew Magazine Beach Park, at the Cambridge area, a hawk made sure he knew he was not happy with that violation of airspace. And attacked the drone.

With a sharp blow, the bird launched quadricóptero a wild tumble. The ‘battle’ aerial ended without injury to the bird, and the drone was not damaged.

The video has nearly two million views in just three days.
