Um, is anyone else thinking how impossible this would be with current tech? 50 miles during one stretch. And on the helicopter that followed it, it logged 1.5 hours of flight time! The radio control tech must have been extremely tuned for that range. Maybe a vehicle was driving below it. I am picturing at least 5KWh battery that should weigh at least 75 pounds (total guestimation)
