William Easterly wants to know, so I take a swag at the problem.
In Africa we need small flying robots that can deliver 200 kg of cargo to a remote airfield. Simple as that.
Africa is a special case with difficult or impossible roads. So the greatest hindrance to development is not having some critical piece of equipment and some process stops cold. When that happens, a model airplane that can make a special delivery in a day or two is a lifesaver, extraordinarily cheap, and free of corruption.
