The 90s tech tv shows promised me these drones, are they finally here?

This is one of the best adverts I've sat through, I'm Biased, I like Flight and I've had problems with birds - "Sound" If you could have the bird make the sounds of your predator bird it's going to be Way the hell more effective - Sight and Sound . The other thought/observation is that your power wings don't have feathers and feathers save 50% of the energy in a bird. When that wing lifts up it tilts and the feathers part softly to allow air flow without the need of power - in a bird the up wing is a rest beat. So good Advert Great idea I think if you went back to the bird it's be helpful - it'd talk sense

On a Bird the Feathers Naturally Open on the Up Stroke because the Quill of the Power Feathers are more one side forcing the feather to flex and even the soft part of the feather has a use for example an Awl flys at night and you don't hear any bloody thing because it has lovely Soft Feathers on the outside and in the inside they're still Powerful Mouse Catchers - just Really really Quiet mouse catchers ... do you see why your aircraft needs Feathers in Some Applications like Stealth ??? Just a Hint here - All the people you're trying to Mimic Have Feathers ... The Tail Feather - I'm going to address this tail in my next Objection ...

[@K1VV1939]

Please go out in your back yard and pull the feather out of your Roosters Tail and Note: The Quill is in the Middle because your Roosters Not Weird he doesn't use his tail for Power Flight he uses it for avoiding crashing into things - OK good so while you have him shake the bugger around and watch him spread all his tail feathers out like a fan trying to stabilize himself ! OK Stop Now! He's had enough! *and so have you if you're still shaking him* - experiment over Put the Rooster Down ... Yeah so that's how all that tail stuff can be done without making it look like a mechanical bird that needs 3 extra servos so the controller is smaller ... I liked the advert, I think it's amazing they got it to actually fly without ever looking at a bird. Now I live in a Country where our National Animal is a Flightless pharquen Bird called a Kiwi. New Zealand Still made the first manned Flight 3 weeks before the Right Brothers - Yep 2 New Zealanders flew 3 weeks before the Right Brothers but had a hard landing

Bird scare tactics

Have a look at how a Bird Flys - They have Feathers, a completely doable thing in a man made bird. Watch in slow motion how a birds wing works, the shoulder pivots to make the Up Stroke Free and effortless Movement, then the counter pivots down the feathers close and the '2 stroke' Power stroke happens right - it's so simple Birds can do this shit. I like your bird but it could be so much better, less power to run to allow other shit that's needed in the craft to be added like a camera, sound system, a 360 mag 12 gauge Gatling gun, you know the important things!

[@gehirnakrobat883]

This could be incredible for warfare, no? Silent and getting confused with real birds..

[@thebabbler8867]

That's exactly what it's made for: but for the surveillance of civilians. Ain't no countries war against each other; all militaries are for governments to control their own people. 🥴
