Then get ready for a challenge. That's a T-Rex 700 and I have seen some with more powerful motors or even twin turbines that reached 250 km/h and more.

Seriously expensive. Not like the ones you see selling in Buriram for 500 Baht.

Expensive, but nowhere near 20000$ I looked up a kit for the same helicopter on Ebay and would love to get one.

That's not an 'expensive drone kit'. On the tail boom you can see the manufacturer's name: Align.
It's an Align T-Rex 700 model helicopter. Here[^] you have the first offer I found on Ebay for € 529,95. They come in many different complete or partial configurations. Let's say that you can get very good quality parts for € 1000 - 2000.
Then you might need this[^] to get first person view when flying it. € 369.00 no more.
That's it. The mechanism to release the cargo is just a little practical model building. The sender and receiver have free channels which can be used for this.
And now I take a closer look at that 'Rex on Ebay. I'm not quite ready yet for a bird this size, but the price looks good.
Edit: The 'Rex 700 is a kit and contains just the mechanical parts and the motor. You need to get four servos, a receiver, motor controler, stabilization, batteries and rotor blades of your choice. So yes, it will be at least € 1000 until it is ready to lift off. Still a good price for a heli of this size.
Edit^2: I took the 'Rex for a little flight in the simuator. I hope the sound of the motor and the blades is anything like in the simulator. It was as stable as a heli this size should be, but especially roll and yaw were much more direct than I expected. I think I'm going to book an hour with a flight instructor and a T-Rex 700 to try out the real thing.

It takes a lot of courage to go down that slope and at precisely the right time to toss yourself off.

I thought it was a little unfair on some members who wouldn't necessarily know where "Mr Auld" lives and works. Perhaps just using "Scotsmans high ground" or similar would have been fairer - I dunno, I'm not the setter, because my mind just doesn't work that way.

I thought the Mr Auld reference was a dead give away. I was thinking of Scottish ranges immediately and I'm on the other side of the world!

A lawyer boarded an airplane in New Orleans with a box of frozen crabs and asked a blonde flight attendant to take care of them for him.
She took the box and promised to put it in the crew's refrigerator.
He very crassly advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for them staying frozen, mentioning in a very haughty manner that he was a lawyer, and proceeded to rant at her about what would happen if she let them thaw out...
Needless to say, she was annoyed by his behavior.
Shortly before landing in New York... she used the intercom to announce to the entire cabin... "Would the lawyer who gave me the crabs in New Orleans please raise your hand?"
Needless to say, not one hand went up.
So she took them home and ate them!
Two lessons here:
1. Lawyers aren't as smart as they think they are.
2. Blondes aren't as dumb as most folks think.
