Paul, how much noise does that ducted fan make on landing and take off?
I am sure it is far less than a small jet engine. Jay Leno has a Jet powered motorcycle and admits it is just insane. He said when he pulls up at an intersection is it funny to see everyone looking into the sky for the jet noise. And the neighbors are not happy if he fires it up in the morning to go to his "office" and play with cars.
I just wonder about that UAV flying over someone's house and making a lot of noise. Not that the average diesel delivery truck is stealthy. Our dogs alert us when UPS or Amazon pull up out front before the driver gets out.
It will be an interesting future. I just wonder about the reality of package delivery with UAVs, and the mandatory push from governments to electric cars will really play out. Those are two very different industries, but both are in their infancy, and will cause major changes to our way of doing things if they can be made to work on a large scale.
