Cybertruck Robotic Arm F10 Drone Launch!

Nifty F10 fixed-wing drone can be launched straight from the bed of a modified Tesla Cybertruck.

The vehicle, upgraded by Unplugged Performance, doubles as a mobile base station with all the equipment needed for field missions.

The demo showed how drones and vehicles could work together as a single system, letting responders, inspectors, or defense teams deploy long-range autonomous flights directly from the field.
