    In response to Robert Palmore:

    True!
    Before I turned 50 I told my wife I wanted to build a UAV and that I fgured it would cost $20,000 at least.(that was before I found DIYDrones)
    I told her that was still cheaper than a red corvette and a blonde girlfriend in the passenger seat for my mid-life crisis!
    I've been slowly spending quite a bit on the hobby (R/C, RPV, and UAV) as you say discreetly so as not to invoke a hurricane!

    I've been married enough times to know its dangerous to make sweeping generalizations about what women's roles are!

    If not for hunting and gathering , the heroines won't be cooking either !! , any way if no money was there to be made , most of us will be still out in field spending money and having some fun with out toys, one way or other there is money involved.

    In the 90's the dominant attitude was nurture over nature. Nowadays the dominant attitude is nature over nurture. The explanation tends to change depending on where government is spending money. Being a biology major & hearing good evidence from the nature over nurture side, it's looking like heroines just aren't biologically attracted to hunting & gathering. Most of us here want to make money on drones someday even if we're not serious about it. If there wasn't any money to be made in it, we probably wouldn't be here.

    I'm member of a Kite Club ratio is 0/600
    I'm member of a free flight Rc club ratio is 0/130
    I'm member of a Rc glider community ratio is 1/70
    And here ratio is 1/10500 ????

    This is why most of hobbyists married, becaus this is not a favorite hobby for single mens.
    Dance lessons or amateur theatre communities better option :))

    @Alex : you are completely right ;)

    I know this is going to get me in trouble but............
    No Couture drones.
    Maybe a way to get young girls interested in technology is to integrate more of the girly stuff with technology and then some interest may be generated for creation of more girly technology stuff etc, etc. That is one of those comments that are made in jest but may hold a some small value to it.
