I have analyzed the photo of the object at still point (46 sec) of the Fox video and it doesn't look like a quadrotor.
That said, it does move like a quadrotor on steroids.
But this is not a quadrotor...

DENVER – It’s a mile high mystery in the skies over Denver.
Strange objects caught on camera flying over the city and nobody can explain it.
We first learned about these sightings when a metro area man, who does not want to be identified brought us his home video. He captured the images on his digital camera from a hilltop in Federal Heights looking south toward downtown Denver.
He said, “The flying objects appear around noon or 1:00 p.m. at least a couple of times a week.” The strangest part is they are flying too fast to see with the naked eye, but when we slowed down the video, several UFOs appear.
We altered the color contrast to make it easier to see. You can take a look for yourself by watching the video clip.
We wanted to verify the video we saw was legitimate and not doctored in anyway. So our photojournalist set up his camera in the same spot, and shot video from just before noon until just after 1:00 p.m. He also captured something unexplained on video.
Aviation expert Steve Cowell is a former commercial pilot, instructor and FAA accident prevention counselor.
He thought he would have a logical explanation, until he watched the video. “That is not an airplane, that is not a helicopter, those are not birds, I can’t identify it,” he said. He also told us the objects are not insects.
He said he knows of no aircraft that flies as fast. He did tell us there is one other possibility. “Perhaps there’s some sort of debris that is being raised up by some of the atmospheric winds.”
But in his professional opinion, “As it fits the definition, it’s an unidentified flying object.”
The FAA tracks all air traffic in Colorado and across the country. The FAA sent us a statement that says, “We`ve checked with air traffic control and no one has had any reports of the activity you described…nor have any of our employees observed anything of this nature either visually or on their radar displays.”
The North American Aerospace Defense Command is located in Colorado Springs. It keeps an eye on the skies in case of an air attack against the United States.
NORAD sent us this statement, “Our Command Center reviewed their records and they did not have any noted air activity in the Denver area during the times you indicated.”
The man who brought the video to our attention believes the UFOs are launching and landing near 56th Ave. and Clay Street in Denver. A Map shows only homes in the area.
So are they UFOs? A secret military test? Floating debris?
The answer is anything but clear. What do you think this UFO is?

It’s a UFO. Unidentified Flying Object.
Doesn’t the name itself tell us?
We don’t know what it is. Duh.
I have analyzed the photo of the object at still point (46 sec) of the Fox video and it doesn't look like a quadrotor.
That said, it does move like a quadrotor on steroids.
But this is not a quadrotor...
You didn’t read the article, did you?
the UFOs are launching and landing near 56th Ave. and Clay Street in Denver.
My guess is it's some kid with a cool RC aircraft.......
If I was that concerned, I’d post my posse in that neighborhood just to see what’s up.......
Looks like it’s a quadrocopter surrounded by a cylindrical housing to me.
That’s pretty cool to have an RC aircraft that is faster than any known aircraft.
More like an octocopter with some jets attached.
84th and Federal is a long way from 56th. It would have to be a pretty big quadrotor.
“...56th Ave. and Clay Street in Denver...”
Say - isn’t that the neighborhood where the Conehead family live? They’re from “France” ya’ know....
Usually happens between noon and 1:00 PM.
Activity centered in a repeating particular area.
My guess would be some guys playing around with a potato gun during lunch break. (Potato guns can fire many different types of objects.)
What's even cooler is to imagine that an alien aircraft is launching and flying in the same airspace above a neighborhood, the same time of day, several days per week and nobody sees it.........Must be in stealth mode.......LOL!
I guess. No one was but if you say so.
If the videographer went to the site and took his camera...we could settle this once and for all.
Martians during rush hour.
I don’t know about this kind of stuff. There was this guy, some 60 years sgo, who was, and he will admit it now, he was a dumb country boy who had never been more than 50 miles for where he was born.
He joined the Navy and they sent him to the Aleutian Islands. One night he went up on deck and over head, in all their glory was the Aurora borealis. He freaked out because he thought it was the end of the world....
-—Lights in the sky or objects in the sky, maybe just that-Lights—— objects——saying that it aliens from space which is what most people mean when they say UFO is just too large of an assumption...I don’t mean to criticize, its just, where’s the connection to little green men ??? ...Sorry to rag on this because I would like to know what causes the things...

What am I missing here?
