While this may be a concept vehicle, I think it's gonna need some bigger motors.
Not to mention a huge battery bank.
Now if this thing were being developed by a civilian, I wonder how quick the FAA would step in and stop it?

Why would they?

Does the FAA have authority to stop someone from building experimental aircraft?

Anyone who has modded a Phantom has done that.
Let alone kit and scratch built a/c.

However their use or attempted use is another thing. :lol:
