Antonov was soviet company but now it is Ukrainian. Love their planes and it's sad to know we are not in a same team anymore. That's for Mi-26 it's real giant with really specific market niche. So I totally agree with your point, every vehicle…"
"It seems they missed projection #11:"11) Immature and prohibitive regulation laws will diminish evolution of drone industry for decades."
IMHO it is most important one."
"I wish you a great success, but I have to say everything you have shown so far doesn't prove anything. It looks very much like "we have some special and a very secret magic".
It's not a big deal to hover inside of power cord loop. But powering a…"
"BTW, having in mind my so-many-year-ago experiments and size of coil on your copter I bet you are using frequencies something about 100kHz to 1MHz :)"
"Thank you for provided answers, Dmitry,
Few more questions:
How it is possible that "mounting transmission cord at a height of 1 meter or so from the ground/big metal objects" is preventing it from power loss and the same time it is "in general you…"
"One more question..
3) What are you going to do with power transmission loss due to accidental conductors that may happen to be located inside of huge powering loops? What about eddy currents in a wet ground, metal roofs and other constructions?"
1) To fly copter inside of the powering cord loop is definitely not the same as to fly it at 10-20 meters over or aside of. You will have a huge power transmission loss. Do you have the same demo with a copter that hovering at 10 meters…"
"$79 couldn't be a problem for professional grade FOC-ready ESC with redundant UAVCAN, low latency, status feedback and so on. That's great. But.. 4S and 20A limits could not be considered appropriate for professional grade device. Guys, are you…"
"I performed flight tests and have to admit that flight time is definitely bad, it is about 8 minutes with 3300 mAh battery used. Copter weight w/o battery is about 1710 gm, including 146 gm of landing gears and 45 gm of cctv camera. So it seems…"
