Last in the current the review of contestants in the DARPA UAVForge Challenge – a contest to use crowd-sourcing to build small UAS through an exchange of ideas and design practices – this video presents the Pogo 2100UAV.

The Pogo 2100 is a flying pogo stick that can be configured with explosives and sensors. It is launched over long ranges by a rocket, and released in a capsule. Then it drifts around like a spying seed, hovering with the help of blade-like propellers.
