Talk about meals on wheels, look out, here comes Tacocopter. According to Plugged In, those that like their food delivered by air, Tacocopter may never get off the ground. But there is a lot on interest.
The way it is supposed to work is simple. You use your smart phone to order tacos and the mini-copter tracks you down with your GPS. I don’t know if the tacos are still hot when they get there or if they have picked up bugs or birds.
Naturally there are glitches in the plan. First of all, the FAA says no. And there are issues like what happens if the copter lands on somebody or worse if it takes your food to someone else. There’s also the chance that the person placing the order might steal the machine. I wouldn’t. I promise.
Being a grumpy old man that only knows how to make chili, there sure are times when I would like to phone in an order to deliver. The possibilities are limitless. Can you imagine, a cheeseburger that lands on your driveway? I would be willing to put in a mini-heliport if that would help.
Yes, I would like to have fries with that.
