Not really, but there has been a rash of cheap RC helicopters on sale here which look quite fun.

you really have to watch out for those blades and one crash can completely total out your helicopter.

I got the Nano QX (google Nano QX and you'll see it. Work has it blocked) quad copter for Christmas. Took some practice to keep it aloft, but I am learning. Need to get more batteries. Flight time is about 5 minutes but charging takes about 20min.

I got the Syma S107C Camera 3 Channel Remote Control Helicopter with Gyro & Video Recording for Christmas. I fly it over my lawn so when I crash it, it doesn't break. After I get good at it I'm going to have it go and hover around my neighbors' windows and record what they're doing inside and see if I can find something that will allow me to blackmail them.

Wouldn't it be cool to shoot down Amazon drones? Huh?

I already have my tree stand set up for the buggers. Got a clear line of sight of the front door, back door, driveway and mailbox. Remington 600 with a 350 magnum round might be overkill though.
