Thank you so much for this presentation. I’ve been following Sandy Monro for a couple of years. Ever since I saw him on Autoline After Hours. When Gali/Hyperchange said he had introduced Mark Frohnmayer to Sandy I rushed out and bought FUV @ $3.01. Unfortunately I didn’t sell @ $36.80. But I have made a few $$ and FUV is my second largest holding, behind TSLA. When Sandy says something I pay attention. Thanks again.

VTOL personal vehicles at around 34:00 marker. The biggest issue with those and especially when we talk about separation, are the forces of nature, namely the air drafts such as heat and wind. The air, unlike the pavement is never solid and if you've ever flown a small aircraft you'd know just how "bumpy" it is. No matter how comfortable you may become with constantly getting thrown about, there is an inherent risk of smashing into structures, particularly in the cities. Take one such as Manhattan or Hong Kong that are full of very tall buildings in very close proximity to each other, and you have massive amount of warm air swirling about. Now, combine that with natural weather patterns and you have a whole heap of challenges to worry about.

Thank you to Sandy Munro and Charged for this presentation. I had much of the basic information floating around in my head, but this put a laser focus on breaking the options down the best way. I specially was interested to find out, (for sure, though I suspected), that there is no ONE best solution for all needs. Cars, and other small vehicles NEED batteries. At the present time, this means Li-Ion. Larger vehicles can make use of hydrogen. Eventually, there may be a viable Solid State Battery available for general use, but to replace Li-Ion may take decades. Hooray for Sandy. He covered all bets while sounding knowledgeable. I'm kidding, of course, Sandy is THE BOSS when it comes to engineering.

46:00 You can make a casting with the crush characteristics you want, and you could make the alternative with desirable crushing as well. The question is how much it weighs. Nobody seems to be putting it in those terms. I think the castings will save substantial weight. It totally makes sense. There are no operations such as stamping, and stamping inevitably weakens a piece of metal to some extent.
@cruiser97eric1

Stamping can make metal stronger because of work hardening. Casting produces metal in its weakest form, lacking extra strength from work hardening or heat treatment.

Thanks for doing this. I have the greatest respect for Sandy Munro and his engineering knowledge. As another old guy, I know there's no substitute for having paid attention to everything around me all my life. It's worth remembering and respecting the enormous depth of Tesla from both a management and technology perspective. Elon Musk has built a company that is a magnet for the best talent in the world, and the ongoing result is that Tesla is the most competent and far-sighted company in the world in every aspect of physical transportation, energy production, energy transportation, energy storage, and AI. Every aspect? Invent, research, design, and develop; manufacturing systems; software control systems; user interfaces; user assist systems (FSD, for example). Tesla is now so far ahead in every area of its technology, every aspect is licensable. The scary aspect for every other organization is the Elon Musk corporate model. It's an entirely new model that disposes of the old power heirarchies that exist inside every other company (departments, management structure, etc). This new model gets much faster, better results which means that any old heirarchies can't catch up and will have no choice but to licence from Tesla.

22:40 When you talk about the energy density of hydrogen, you MUST include the weight of the TANK. With gasoline or diesel, the weight of the tank is not a big deal because of the density of the fuel. But with hydrogen, it's everything. And when you include that, hydrogen can still look fairly good, but not THAT good.

@@markweatherill I must admit that's one possibility I hadn't thought of. It probably could be done. I'm not sure how much advantage that would provide. And one thing that may be a misconception is that it's easy to quickly refill a hydrogen tank. Filling a tank to thousands of bars might require quite a bit of compression energy, and take much longer than just pumping in liquid. One thing to keep your eye on might be the "power paste" I've heard of, which is a sort of hydride goo, consisting of tiny hydride particles. That would already have the hydrogen pre-compressed, and could be pumped in quickly, and you could get the gas out as you drive.

This is perhaps outrageous, but if metal hydrogen (solid at room temp) can be produced with advanced nuclear energy and a method to infinitesimally use small amounts of it, that would blow everything here away. Also, if liquid hydrogen is part of the solution, why can’t liquid oxygen be also. Reason for propelling with precise blending of these two, is that the result is truly water, versus nitrous oxides + water.

One question to Mr Munro, concerning the structural resistance of the one-piece front and rear car bodies. Too rigid, means that, in case of accident, the forces coming from the outside will go integrally to the drivers, passengers and cargo (the problem with chassis made cars, like old VW Beatle). What about this?

Good Show, Sandy!! Mr. Munro, you are Very Bullish on electric powered VTOLS, and while I'm a High School drop out, and really don't want to bore you with childish questions, I gotta try : of course, the weight of batteries or fuel cells and hydrogen tanks are the biggest problems to overcome, but since the most energy intensive part of any flight is just getting the DAMN thing off the ground and into the air, and since this is a very short duration, high energy event, wouldn't Ultra Capacitors be perfect for this part of the flight?? I read that Ultra Capacitors can store large voltages of electricity, but not large Volumes of electricity yet, but I believe they are much lighter than batteries, which means you'd only need enough batteries for the lowest power use, easiest part of the flight, but I haven't seen or read about using them in that type of application, so I guess I'm wrong!!! Sorry!!! Chas Orvis, Plainville, Ct. PS : you ARE THE WILLIE NELSON OF THE AUTOMOTIVE WORLD!!!

Sandy. I too for more then 20 years have been saying that the future of transportation is above the ground. My reasoning has always been that we cannot continue to support all the infrastructure and consuming all the natural resources required to keep moving along the surface of the earth. We are seeing it even today. Our roads are a mess and bridges are crumbling and we are continuing to build more knowing full well we can’t pay for the up keep. Air does not need constant repairs. We simply cannot afford to remain on the ground. Spreading out the population both vertically as well as horizontally even just 100’ AGL adds an interesting element of safety. It will save millions of lives.

Doesn't the Aptera's use of vacuum cast composite body components take advantage of the giga press casting idea without having to buy a giga press and deal with molten metal? I think the Aptera has maybe 5 total body components that can be self aligning in assembly and hand fitted with no use of robots. So much about the Aptera seems to be really smart to me. I know Sandy is working with them so I'm looking forward to a tear down of one in the next few months as they are getting close to rolling some off of the assembly line. By the end of this year or early next year. Exciting times ahead.

I'm impressed that battery chemistry advances gradually via "trial and error" and the Tesla "jelly roll" technology lends itself readily to improvements in battery chemistry without necessitating major alterations in expensive manufacturing machinery. Can the same be said of solid state batteries? My guess is that mass production machinery for solid state batteries would likely work for only one type of solid state battery, and that advancing to a better solid state battery would likely entail major changes in manufacturing equipment.

Ammonia is a stable hydride in liquid form. It adds one nitrogen per three hydrogen atoms but it can be used in internal combustion engines. Thermal efficiency is always the issue. But a crank less engine moving a coil back and forth will generate power with fewer losses and could potentially be made with variable stroke and variable compression ratio.

The problem with personal vtol is flight is an extremely dynamic situation. That's the reason only 2% of the population has ever operated any type of flying vehicle. Those vehicles will need to be fully autonomous because the average person simply doesn't have a high enough livel of situational awareness if they did there would be zero traffic accidents on the highways today !

How does one do a quality inspection of the die casts? it would be bad to notice a small defective section after more assembly is done. Or do they do an in-situ repair?

Mega casting save lots of production steps, but how repairable are they? If the car is in an accident will the entire mega casting have to be replaced? I think so. This almost writes off the entire car in an accident that could have been repairable on other conventional vehicles...😕

Since the Megacasting is effectively a part of the Frame the question about repairability is superflous - if the Frame of a Car is damaged in a Crash its a writeoff, no matter how said Frame was manufactured. Also before it gets damaged the impact would have to go through the whole front/rear crumble zone first, not sure if you would trust any car repaired from such an impact..

The mega casting has front crash rails that can be sawed off and new ones bolted on to the remaining frame, so it’s designed to be more repairable than most frames.

This is my theory about the two Texas guys crash. They started driving with both sitting in front, then they wanted to switch driver while driving. So the passenger moved to back, the driver moved to passenger seat. Before the back seat guy moved to drive seat, accident happened.

eVTOL? UAE and China are piloting ‘Unman Drone Taxi’ between urban to urban (big city) and urban to suburban with batteries operated for 2 and 4 seaters. It makes senses Dow few reasons. Firstly it’s autopilot so no license or pilot required. Secondly drones talk to each other (drone swamps) which means the taxi fleet could comply with aviation regulations for traffic control and safety purposes. Lastly is maintenance, a taxi fleet with equipped with knowledgeable engineers with routinely check list according to requirements while personal one could created issues either personal discipline or service quality.
