My grandfather was an aeronautical engineer and died in the late 40's. He designed an airplane for the "Mass's". He called it the "Everyman" or the Butane Bus. Boeing and other aircraft still use his Leading Edge Aileron design. He had invented the "Floatless Carburetor". The first fuel injection. The Army confiscated the Fuel Injection patent. The Aeronautical Industry burned his airplane in its hanger and killed him to stop Everyman from having an airplane in their garage. He also invented the first Retractable Landing Light systems and was an "Early Bird". His name is on the roster.

the electric semi-trucks are more of a gimmick currently I talked with one of their drivers a few years ago and he said the truck takes a lot longer to charge than they say and that it only has around 200-300 miles of range and realistically its closer to 150-200.... charge time they claim is 2hours. with drivers getting paid per mile and federal regulations on how many hours they can drive. you're looking at trucks running around 1/3 of the miles they can currently. which means drivers are only going to make about a 1/3 as much. also if you converted all the trucks that run local in new york city.... you'd need around 700 acres of space to charge them more than what is currently being used. and the city would need 2 more power plants. LA area would need 5 more power plants and 1500 acres.

Intracontinental flights by battery electric planes sounds like a great idea, but has some critical fundamental hurdles to jump before being viable: - the energy density of the electric power source doesn't even approach that of contemporary fluorocarbon based fuel, - the mass majority of an EV plane will be the batteries making passenger and cargo numbers very limited, - high altitude flight reqd. has depressurisation issues that cannot, reasonably, be overcome unless clothed in an effective space suit, and the - low temperatures of HA flight will be a further burden on the charge cycle either for BMS or loss due to low temp. But hey, it's OK to dream ... just don't expect it anytime soon.

This may be off topic but I think someone might find it interesting. :D Over Unity Water wheel electric generator: Top of structure has Huge slanted basin (If looking at it from the side it would be slanting down to the right). When filled with water the water naturally slides down and over edge where it starts falling straight down causing water wheels to spin. Water wheels are stacked on top of each other not touching but close. As water falls it hits them all one after the other making them all spin as it makes it's way to the bottom. At the Bottom of the structure there is a large slanted basin. This basin is slanted in the opposite direction to the one on top so the water slides down to the left, into a pool of sorts that is U shaped,(imagine right below the water wheels is the shallow end and as it slants down it gets deeper for some distance then winds around to the other side of construct and comes back up to another shallow end. Now directly behind the water wheels on a flat surface that is above the pool of water that's curving around it, there is another wheel positioned vertically but this one is not a water wheel, this one has powerful magnets embedded horizontally inside of it on both of it's flat sides so there magnetic repulsive field is pushing outwards away from the disc on both sides. (Also each embedded magnet is surrounded in high permeability metal or Mu-Metal to focus it's magnetic field lines into a condensed strong field. This disc is powered by one powerful electric motor. Now imagine long hollowed out cylindrical tubes submerged & sticking out of the pool of water and reaching all the way up and into the basin that holds water on top. Now imagine each tube has a windy slide inside that goes from top to bottom. Now imagine the tube has rings around it that are magnetically repelled so when the main wheel spins around the horizontally positioned magnets hit into the side of these rings causing the entire cylindrical tube to spin. The spinning motion of the tube will cause it to scoop up the water in the pool and the centrifugal force of the spin and the windy slide inside will guide and force the water back to the top. Now remember for this to work properly there needs to be enough water wheels spinning to generate more electrical current then the motorized wheel needs to spin. Key Element 1: Number & quality of water wheels. Key Element 2: Quality of electric generator connected to each water wheel. Key Element 3: Enough tubes to pull enough water from bottom basin back to top basin to equal the rate and amount of water filling both basins at any given time. Key fact: The accumulation of electrical current from the electric generators connected to the water wheels must be greater then the 1 electric motor needs to spin. Key Fact: One must divert the needed electrical current from the generators connected to the water wheels to the motor spinning the disc that has the magnets on it. Key Fact : If this is done properly it would be an over Unity Electric Generator. Reason why some may think this would not work: Some would say the amount of energy the motor needs to spin the disc with magnets on it will always be greater then the amount of electrical current being perpetuated by the electric generators on the water wheels complements of natural energy losses do to heat and friction. This assumption is understandable however I will explain why this does not stop this device from being an over unity device. You see it comes down to one simple truth. The motor spinning the vertically positioned disc is only actually doing a fraction of the needed work, it is the horizontally positioned magnets impacting into the tubes causing them to spin that is doing the heavy lifting :) and since the magnets are positioned horizontally on disc the push back against them is unable to hinder the motor spinning the disc to a degree that would require it to do loads more work. In conclusion this is a device that can be self contained away from the elements so as to not hinder it's effectiveness. And it is an Over unity device if built correctly. & to all you nay Sayers out there I would just like to add I hope you all have a great day and whether you like it or not this design works. :D

"Elon had not sketched-out his plans" -- Crayola shortage, must'a been. 9:20 on is Elon gobbly-goo. "Neutral force ballance" is just Newtons 3rd law, and planes cannot "capture gravitational energy" since: 1) gravity is a weak force, much weaker than drag 2) Planes actually produce HUGE amounts of drag from lift (you want them to keep flying, right?) (See: "induced drag") 3) drag increases with velocity squared, not just velocity, so the reverse can't get you reclaimed "squared energy". 4) conservation of energy violations all day long. And 100 other reasons. 5) You go "supersonic" with less energy at altitude, partly because "supersonic" or Mach 1, is *slower* at altitude than it is on the ground. Listen folks: please don't take anything Elon says about tech seriously. No more than than any person you meet randomly on the street, (unless he is reading a script provided by an actual engineer or scientist.) This is just getting ridiculous.

One solution to the range issue for aircraft is a boost to altitude detachable battery pack. It clips onto the plane while it is on the ground being serviced. It then provides all the power to get the plane to altitude and then returns to the airport on it own. No pilot would be needed for the battery pack. At this point, the plane is above the clouds where the solar cells on the top surfaces of the plane can also extend range. On decent, the plane can recharge it's batteries. It would be possible for the plane to reach it's destination and be fully charged.

The breakthrough is with the batteries, not with the airplane. If this breakthrough do happen, petrol / gasoline cars would be priced out of existence, and electric aircraft would take off overnight. Yes, the new electric airplane needs some miracle software for energy recovery, and flight optimisation within the air streams, but Tesla / SpaceX are no stranger to such miracles; just see how the Crew Dragon had the Boeing Starliner bite the dust - so nicely and effortlessly. With the Crew Dragon, SpaceX pulled out a coordinated software miracle, that Boeing was simply incapable of duplicating. One thing you say in the video is incorrect. One thing about solid state batteries. While prototypes of solid state batteries exists, they aren't fit for purpose yet. Ion conductivity in solid materials remain a tough nut to crack, and requires some new technologies - yet to be invented. Electrons jumps from an atom shell to another, so a solid material isn't an obstacle at all. Ions - for all practical purposes - are whole atoms travelling; if you can visualise it, you can understand how difficult it is; or better, how impossible is to achieve the required ions mobility with normal materials in normal conditions. A current solid state battery is only the double of the capacity of a traditional one - per given volume. This is because the solid state battery can use metallic lithium at the anode instead of graphite. Problem is their production, as the whole assembly cycle must happen in high vacuum, and the problem with the dendrites hasn't been fully solved, nor the fact they stop working in the cold. A standard smartphone battery costs 2 to 3 dollars, while the solid state version would cost around 10,000 dollars. There are no typos, that's ten thousand dollars. So, with regards to solid state batteries, for now, there are no hope. Just more research. Thanks for the video, Regards from the UK...

This is so cool! What about making interchangeable battery packs that can be swapped with fully charged packs in a few minutes while the plane is at the gate?
@bobwallace97534 жыл бұрын
A battery pack can be recharged while passengers are being unloaded, the plane cleaned, and new passengers loaded. A Tesla EV can charge from 0% to 80% in about 27 minutes with their new V3 Supercharger. We're likely to see charge times improve with their new 4680 cells because the tabless design allows heat to be wicked away from the batteries more efficiently.
@jeroenarets73073 жыл бұрын
Flying is all about weight and the battery-packs are still about 500 times to heavy for the energy they generate, plus not to mention that airplane jet-engines generate thrust where electricity only generates power, which would make electrical engines only interesting for propellor driven aircraft that are only used for short distance flights as they travel a lot slower and lower compared to commercial jetliners. Just to name a few things why electricity isn't the answer/future for aviation yet, as it's a different principle.. It all sounds great and plausible if knowledge is limited, but the current electrical drive-trains will never be seen in commercial aviation.

Engineers are already working on the next generation of batteries. These are batteries that will allow a car to travel 8000 miles before needing to be recharged. Also, just like computer components that are getting smaller every few years, batteries are also getting smaller with each new generation of battery.

Today a 2 Tb flash memory card (100,000 times more memory and probably 1000 times faster) is less than $100.

Besides numerous smaller inaccuracies, perhaps the biggest point being overlooked here (which I know Elon understands) is that conventional planes get continually lighter as they burn fuel, and large long-haul airliners can't even land with full fuel tanks (the landing gear isn't strong enough, so they dump fuel if they have an emergency early in the flight). Electric planes are the same mass for the whole flight, which is a huge problem for range. The only electric airliners being considered right now are for very short flights that are common in northern Europe. Comparing planes to cars when talking about range is absurd - mass is far less of an issue on the ground. And flying higher isn't a solution - thinner atmosphere also reduces lift, not just drag, so you'd need bigger wings (once again adding mass you can't shed).
