Indeed, the concept behind Tacocopter is very simple, and very American: You order tacos on your smartphone and also beam in your GPS location information. Your order -- and your location -- are transmitted to an unmanned drone helicopter (grounded, near the kitchen where the tacos are made), and the tacocopter is then sent out with your food to find you and deliver your tacos to wherever you're standing.
You pay online, so the tacos are simply dropped off at your feet by the drone helicopter, which then flies back to the restaurant to pick up its next order.
So far, the Tacocopter is available only to selected users in San Francisco. But after investors flood in, the business will surely expand.

Order Taco, tackle flying copter two blocks from house, claim taco never arrived, get free taco and free copter. Now... where to find a big net.
I was thinking the same thing.... but I assume they will have a GPS tracker on the copter as well as a camera so after it has been netted well need to black bag the camera so we can blind it and then throw a faraday cage over it in to block the GPS signal so they can't track it's where-abouts.
Then snap a photo of the copter and send to shop to ransom the it back to them for a year of free tacos.
And we all know that a taco stolen is twice as spicy and a taco earned.
