What robotics investors say they’re looking for in startup pitches

I've been flying things for 30+ years, and the one thing I have learned in this hobby/field is that the cycle goes like this:

  1: Build -> 2: Fly -> 3: Crash (goto 1)

DJI are turning this into:

  1: Buy -> 2: Fly -> 3: Crash (goto 1)

All of these phases are ripe for disruption in my opinion. Maybe you'll find that building is way more fun than flying (crashing) - in which case, you can ship Step #2 off to someone else to deal with .. ;)

You piqued my interest. Now I wonder, how can we innovate in the space of #3? What disruptive potential awaits there?
