[@TwoBitDaVinci]

Cant wait to see it in person

[@ksnax]

I don't understand how the FAA intends to regulate these vs. other drone licensing. How does that coexist as beyond VLOS operation vs. Part 107 pilots? Hoping that means an additional level of certification will be available as part of it.

[@dustygreene3335]

Imagine a scaled up fleet of these looking for survivors of a natural disaster and sending a smart basket down to help them. Or even just the controllable basket part added to a rescue helicopter would be awesome.

@@default_user_89 That's not a social problem we need to address seperately. Not just minumum wage workers, but highly paid knowledge and creative workers will eventually be replaced by AIs some day. Do we limit the capabilities of AIs just so humans can keep their jobs or let technology advance freely and see what benefits can bring? it's a philosophical debate beyond our current understanding. For example, displaced coders, laywers, accountants, radiologists by AI. Should they become carpenters, plumbers, personal care workers that cannot be replaced by machines? Should the latter mentioned positions be compensated more or at least equally as coders, laywers , accountants etc, that are traditionally considered require higher degrees? In a way, AI turns it upside down, anything that require brain suddenly can be replaced by AI. But things that require hands-on or personal skills still need human touch. Plumbers, electricians etc, may one day be compensated as much as radiologists or software engineers.

[@kkrobertson1]

The biggest problem with drones is the weather! Rwanda has 2 seasons raining and dry! Unlike the US where some places have 4 season and a lot of wind meaning the drones will have to get even bigger to over come that!

Other great inventions such as ionic propulsion, metamaterials or even the famous graphene or its derivatives or elements that can act "similar to graphene", such as boroene or silicene, would greatly help aviation in general, not only to drones, but in general, as in resistance, to have less weight and be more efficient... at least I think so...

the challenge for bigger versions is battery capacity vs weight.

Package delivery may not seem sexy, but somthing like this can have profound effects on commerce with far reaching knock-on effects. Grocery delivery for example, currently your adding a large price tag because a picker and driver are involved, but somthing like this could drop the price to negligible and eliminate urban food deserts.

[@TwoBitDaVinci]

indeed the 3rd order effects are important to consider.

[@OrenTirosh]

A similar system with tethered delivery has been operated by Israeli startup FlyTrex for several years now, including a number of locations in the US. The zipline system is a bit fancier, but it’s the same concept.

[@TwoBitDaVinci]

So awesome... we didn't come across this thanks for sharing. I have a feeling that zipline will be much more successful since it looks much more capable. What do you think?

[@bcase5328]

How do they deal with ground to air static electricity?

[@ryanchappell5962]

There is an issue with the wishbone propellor for a quad copter drone. Those propellers reduce noise in all directions except directly downwind. This works great on their plane drone because no one is standing behind the propeller but with a quad drone, everyone is below (downwind) and so the noise reduction isn’t as useful.

[@richiebricker]

They are not using a "zipline" to drop the packages, they are just dropping them, one with a 3 yr old boy in the yard another almost hit a dog. Maybe theyre trying to keep the aircraft from being damaged by citizens but theyre putting human life in harms way and WILL kill someone. Im glad the FAA is alright with this

[@sammcbride2464]

This should be for every EMS search and rescue. I can tell you that a lot of dirt bike riders and hikers would benefit from something like this to find them disabled in the dirt.

[@markstevens7838]

I love the possibilities and what they are doing in Rawanda. I wonder though, how vulnerable they would be to vandalism and theft.

[@thotmorgana]

In Rwanda they stay high above the ground and the packages get yeeted out on a parachute. That probably protects it pretty well against most forms of violence and theft. The zipline package version also stays high above ground but the zipline itself could be pulled to pull it down. But because it brings the package to someone who ordered it and the drone is observed by an observer that probably solves a lot of problems compared to most autonomous drones that are navigating the streets and are unobserved.

[@TwoBitDaVinci]

We thought of this too.... but with cameras etc hopefully prosecution would deter any of this kind of behavior

EV will probably be cheaper for a lot simply because it isn't flying. Feel like the payload is too small personally. If they can increase that then yeah. Not really sure what the heck he meant about special operators using drones versus helicopters to inflatrate quietly... Still going to suffer the same issues unless you use a different propeller design. Drones high pitched whining is also super loud and distinctive. A quad or tri toredo design maybe? Just don't see where he was going with a bunch of drones. Seals and such already have a way to drop into enemy territory virtually undetected. It's called HALO or just regular parashooting. You'd be surprised just how far they can glide before having to use the shoot and no motorized vehicle will be as quiet as a parachute.
