The author got Codex to pilot a £100 drone by driving the DJI mobile app on a phone via computer use, powered by the open-source Mobile MCP. Given the mission — find a wooden table, approach, verify position looking down, and land on top — Codex completed it in one shot. Project: github.com/edison-watch/mobile.
