Time to start building interceptor drones.  :-)

I've seen a few attempts at the rear pusher prop... they didn't go as well as that.

In Australia, flying any UAV over a residential area is against CASA (the authority here) rules.  You can fly in the local park just not over houses.

Would love to get deliveries in that time frame though.

Perhaps if it could fly 500km and a bit faster :-)

Heeey that interceptor idea makes me happy. :)
