Yamaha has a heavy hauler UAV available for hire. Why caint i buy one...
Good question- and there are several reasons why not.
Firstly international trade in arms agreements place huge restrictions on export, import and ownership of high capability unmanned vehicles.
We have a responsibility to ensure these vehicles stay in responsible hands, that their exact location and usage is always known.
Secondly it allows us to ensure that maintainance, responsible usage and environmental standards are met.
