Yeah I’m not convinced it’ll be as big as they claim, but ‘drones’ are here to stay, so you never know, it might take off! (Sorry.)

This reminds me is so many si-fi video games of the past! And the possibilities are massive, due to the fact they are so small and so even small places can be made exciting!

At least the video was nice and short, they didn’t drone on about it.
