Well, looks like they made it! :thumbsup:

We can get a rover to Mars but getting a package from the street to my porch seems to be more difficult.

It's the gold standard - showing what can be accomplished when folks work together as a team.

If you're talking about the helicopter that is with the rover...it is autonomous...a program is sent to the system and it follows the program,,,,,there is no remote controls etc...same as the rover...all done with command and control scripts...
