I wouldn't be be to keen to take the drone back home after that mission !
Anyway it is a very nice result.
Just reading a little more about them:
15kg plane with a 2 cycle 86cc engine, 2.2m x 2.8m (roughly 7foot x 9foot)
travels at 100km/h~220km/h (about 60~130mph)
flight time of 4~5 hours
maximum range of 500km (there and back, all together)
they also say they're fully licensed.
Good pics. In the first one you can see that trunk that is (or was) spraying water into one of the reactors to cool it down. Pics from the 20th...so while many of us were thinking, "this crisis is a great time to send in a UAV", somebody did!
Looks like that air photo service takes pics with the UAV plane but they also have a radio controlled (presumably FPV) helicopter.
