It is a real photo, here is the link: http://www.dfrc.nasa.gov/Gallery/Photo/Ikhana/HTML/ED07-0038-085.html

I mirrored it in order to fit in the header with a similar pose.

IKE, that's terrific! Could you put it on the banner so we can see how it fits with the text? If it looks good, I'd be happy to switch to that (and send you some cool DIY Drones swag as a thanks).

The Helios project also by Nasa is an example of a drone with a unique and professional profile, but also with a distinctly non-threatening profile.

And now with even MORE peace ;-)

I like the crowdsourceing ideas.

Far out man!

I am glad you liked it :)

I made a replacement banner and a screenshot preview:

The preview: screenshot

And the image file in gif: DIY_Drones_Logo_Updated_IKE.gif

This is just the existing concept with the new drone, I think it looks ok, if you want any alterations (ex the drone with the gear down) I am happy to do them.
