Their prototype weighs around 20Kgs dry, so well into large which CAA seem to worry about. How will the CAA reconcile their safety stance with these beasts? Methinks there is politics to play here - oh perish the thought. Imagine a 20kg+ drone crashing into a school playground, or your car. Never mind it will save internet shoppers waiting for a whole day for their goods. Call me a Luddite if you must. |
