I guess it depends on how you look at it.

I mean, it’s awesome, lets just get that right out there. Its L oeb, in a Citroen WRC car being chased in 3d space by a flying camera. Lets all take a second to soak in that.

On the other hand, if La Patron can’t shake a drone...the idea of outrunning skynet is well and truly toast. So...you know...that sucks.

They only weigh about 1 pound, and while 1 pound going 70  is going to hurt like hell, its probably not kill you

correct.  When did dusty say he was going to start giving out rides again?

Awful creaking 17th century schooner dubstep aside, this is  just a subtle reminder that:

1. The way the crow flies is always faster

2. Nobody ever had a chance of out running Skynet so instead of trying to exterminate it like in every sci fi tale ever   we MAY wish to consider coexisting for a change?

Neck injury is likely over the next decade. Decapitation not so much. The propellers are smaller than you think and rally fans have the best reflexes apparently.

I’ve been hit with fast spinning FVP blades, it sucks, but its not that threatening to life and limb, but getting hit with a 500 gram drone at 70 mph is ~380 lbs-ft worth of force , which isn’t going to feel great.

No I don’t want a ride. I want to drive

So, stupid pedantic canon thing, but basically in the Animatrix they go over the history of that, and yes, after the robots become an independent nation, the humans try to defeat them with military force as they were afraid of their capacity for economic dominance.

Every story, the humans ALWAYS start shit.

Yep me too, and while it never feels great it’s not going to kill you. They may get bigger and definitely faster over time, but the odds of being hit by one are still pretty low - for now.
