Texas Giga Factory moving fast!

I bet they'll be big enough to allow a factory store and get rid of the antiquated dealers laws https://www.trutv.com/shows/adam-ru...the-real-reason-car-dealerships-are-the-worst

Dear Austin friends,
we need some of you to step up and start doing drone footage similar to what we get for Shanghai and Berlin!
Thanks

There is a military base nearby. I don't think drones are allowed in that airspace.

What map are you looking at? There is no military base nearby. Austin-Bergrstrom Airport is nearby.
