      At a time there was only GoPro Hero 2 available with no timelapse or timer. DJI released their first Phantom I only in 2013. So yeah, now you can be all fancy, but back in a dayzz people had to be creative.

      TheSuperGamer actually you're wrong "One of the first recorded uses was by Austrians in July 1849 after they launched around two hundred pilotless balloons mounted with bombs against the city of Venice."
      Plus it says "The CIA had been flying unarmed drones over Afghanistan since 2000"
      also when my friend and I were in high school they had rc helicpters, so you're wrong, if you wanted to be technical about it since you did

    If you are gonna try, at least put a small parachute on.. it will help the camera facing down and also help it land slower so you can catch it...Make sure you toss it high enough though..
