I wonder what kind of lift it can generate -- if it can carry objects

Keep in mind that the flying time is only about 12 minutes.
That gives you what, 3.6km with full speed (5m/s) and before that you
still have to take off and accelerate. How long will that take, what

back, so maybe you reach about 1.5km in distance ... ? :-)

Mike,
Hmmm LUG idea in November "Programming Unmanned Drones" ;-)
that would be great... I have actually been trying to get a way in
which this drone could fly a few Kilometers while I control it from
my home... wireless network on steroids may work :-)

Of course, you might discount this possibility, but remember that
