Det. Sgt. Jason Greenspane of the Port Townsend Police Department sets a drone in a hover mode after he brought it back from a test flight. Greenspane wanted to determine how far he could get a clear signal.

The drone is equipped with a camera that zooms, pans and swivels 360 degrees and can shoot still images as well as video. The police use the drone for search and rescue operations and other life-saving missions. (Steve Mullensky/for Peninsula Daily News)
