I’ve been following a product rollout that Rapido has been conducting. The Rapido guys went to Portland over the weekend and shot a point cloud on the PA there. (We do this for process plants too, but when we do it, it’s just called laser photogrammetry). Then there was a splash announcement that evening with various PA – PB units coming from Rapido. Nothing MoPac.
But I would say it sounds like we will be taken care of eventually.

Would sure be nice if they did a MP version. I wonder if they could be convinced? The MPHS has a liaison with companies, perhaps he can make an inquiry. Jerry
The MP units are promised, sometime “after the first run”.

Did y’all know that Rapido has bought, and restored to operation , a prototype RDC? Apparently VIA was scrapping them all. That’s too bad, what a great car for a tourist operation.
