Hi all,
I just want to know your opinion about this page:
http://uniteddrones.com/products/aether-aero/
It says that their quadcopter can fly for 4-8 hours thanks to their propietary technology.
Anyone knows something about this? It it's possible?

What if it's a four legged blimp filled with helium/hydrogen?
Einstein figured this out long ago...
<snip>
But this Aether may not be thought of as endowed with the quality characteristic of ponderable media, as consisting of parts which may be tracked through time. The idea of motion may not be applied to it.

All you guys have have a good points, it puts fear in the general public "Big Brother is watching You!" and it is just a Negative for R. C.as a whole.
can fly with fullcels
If it's battery powered I don't think it can fly 4 to 8 hours...
I think it is not possible , Todays battery and MOSFET technology's is not enough to flying 4 hours. I do not believe without seeing with my own eyes
People are afraid that kids with "drones", behaving like kids flying over people and in unsuited places. Are gonna be the end of this hobby. But they are not the problem.
Companies like this with commercial interests willing to say pretty much anything to get on the news, are the real threat.
They could use the generator from Iron Man suit ;-)
The trouble is stacks of people believe these claims and then the cries of privacy privacy start to rise and or outlandish business plans arrive on the desks of important people that would buy into a service that when trialled would just fail. This then dents the confidence of potential technology investors. The roll out of worldwide ICAO UA regs by 2028, expect first basic set in 2015 will put all these people back in the box. Wish it would happen a little quicker though to stop people being ripped off.
Feds are calling BS on them, too.
