There’s good news if you’re a broke University of South Florida student who’d like to take an $1,195 DJI Phantom 2 Vision UAV for a spin: you can now sign one out from the library. Before you start preparing some kind of water balloon-dropping scheme, however, there are a few caveats. First off, all use will be supervised by library staff and you’ll have to take a course in drone operation before you can borrow one of the two available. Secondly, you’ll need a good reason to use it — one approved usage cited by a library supervisor was aerial surveying by architecture students to learn about building layouts.
