Which is no doubt absolutely true—but on the other hand, the cardboard isn't the valuable part of the drone. You could have a stockpile of the cardboard (which they claim is a little larger than a pizza box), and swap out the motor and electronics if a unit survives long enough that the cardboard starts to fail.
- ledauphin 3y agoyeah, this struck me as strange too. the ongoing maintenance on long-lasting industrially-manufactured drones might well cost more than rebuilding a cardboard one every few weeks.
