You're going to have to work on your gullibility. Here's part of the
second (and last) response to the gizmodo article:

"...As for the rest as someone IN the UAV industry and an expert of 10
years this would not be feasable and at this time is illegal as a whole.
You are not allowed to arm a UAV in any way. and the battery system is
still the weak point only allowing up to 10 mins of flight on a UAV this
size especially with only 6s worth of packs. neat.. but illegal and
impractical."

I did wonder about 12.8Ah driving 6 x 17in blades lasting long enough to
run a taser AND hover "until the police arrive".
