Meh. I whip up stuff like that all the time with SubD surfacing. (Not so much anymore since I mostly avoid aircraft engineering now). It is a pretty shell on another scaled up drone. I have been asked to work on a dozen of similar projects.
What I find funny is they are playing the “GREEN” fantasy angle. While saying we have to save the planet and showing how horrible public transportation is, they are cashing in on the GREEN frenzy so people can isolate themselves from the unwashed masses on public transportation. That’s the game though. That’s where the investment dollars come from.
I need to figure out who makes long extension cords. Should be a good stock play for all these magical electrical planes.
Whatever the current bugaboo of the times is, there will be those that will figure out a way to make money off it, doesn’t matter if it works, as long as people ‘believe’ in it.
Green Energy, Climate Change, Global Warming, Cancer, Covid-19, Air Pollution, Water Pollution, Sea Level Rising, Population explosion, whatever they can gin up fear against they can sell something to alleviate those fears.............................
