This has to be one of the coolest dads. No matter what, he inspires the imagination and demonstrates an entrepreneurial spirit.
Well, we just talking 1200 ft, not even a quarter mile and even the kid thinks it's cool. Everybody has their own opinion.

Good work . Rest is for others to run their imagination wild to find varied applications . Remember , sewing machine was never invented for public use . The inventor could not bear the pain his wife used to bear while sewing ! So he created a machine that could sew without hurting the hands or fingers of his dear wife ! !
Well, at first glance at 400 yards, 1st impression is to think "God, thats sorry" But, the next to last line of the article "He said that a GPS tracker in his son's backpack is supposed to guide the quadcopter, but that sometimes trees and other obstacles get in the way. He also said that battery life is an issue. For those reasons, he said, he usually does the trip to the bus stop in person." Oh well!!!!!
