Jack, I'm pretty sure powering with a Tesla coil would be pretty straight forward, some super capacitors, a charging circuit and a power supply.
Tesla himself would have been thrilled, however, practical, maybe not so much.
NO no. Nothing kinky.
It's like mother's milk for them... Life Force.
Darrell,
Robots love stuff like this.
Also useful for flying your quad in rowdy Country&Western bars.
I think I seen some thing like this a year ago that actually powered the copter I think it was under the heading Energy power transfer ? I remember discussing it with /Munroe?
Imagine if the tesla coils actually powered the copter. I mean drone.
The linked site wouldn't work for me but is looked too cool to not search youtube for a more direct link... For others having trouble, this might work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqyubVwOV7w
