It's already possible for amateurs to use an RC plane/drone without a line of sight, it's called FPV(first person view) piloting. They have a videocamera onboard and transmit the video signal into their VR googles. Then they control their plane with a normal radio controller. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9cSxEqKQ78 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9cSxEqKQ78 (this one made the news recently) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_K0-RvC4cg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_K0-RvC4cg More recent designs involve head tracking: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5OZCWaJBdc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5OZCWaJBdc Damn that looks cool. Wish I had money to start a new hobby. Since electrical systems already exist for driving servos and other devices, all you need is a detonator and some explosives to make a lethal and accurate flying bomb that can be remote controlled from a distance.
