Traffic was blocked off for a five block radius from the
accident. Ngozi was the reporter on duty. "How do I get a
scoop" he thought? Then he remembered he had the remote
powered helicopter in the back of the car, and he also, quite
by chance, had his girlfriend's phone in car also.
Quickly,
he wired the phone to the undercarriage of the
copter, dialed his phone, and started a video call, giving
thanks for 4G service.
Within minuted, the chopper had gotten to the site of the
accident, and Ngozi was even able to find a police officer
willing to give an interview.
On, the way back to the office, he began thinking how to
construct a guard for the blades.

"Damn!" said Ngozi. "No service!" before he could bring the
helicopter back, it spiraled out of control and fell into the
burning wreck on the street, taking his girlfriend's $300 phone
with it. |
