Faster, cheaper and better about 2X as much every year or so.<br /><br />In fact all of today's push in Aviation technology is entirely driven by drones. A CC3D board from 2012 packs more gyros, sensors and GPS than anything certified priced 100000 X times (NO kidding... a CC3D is $15).<br /><br />This is for a low level board Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6060827553081940333.post-49257113709217601322019-09-14T20:17:46.200-04:002019-09-14T20:17:46.200-04:00Ambulances do just fine almost all of the time.

They will become a niche product only for the uber rich or for the military or LE and that's it. But even for the later the Osprey shows the way i.e they need a fixed wing 99% of the time that can hover about 1% of it.<br /><brAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
