Autonomous Helicopters

Attached is a link to a Northrop Press Release with discussions about testing of an unmanned helicopter.

I am posting this because this helicopter can perform many of its functions autonomously (take-off, landing) and also operates by remote control (aka "teleoperated mode" in firstspeak).

I thought this would be of interest to some CD readers.
