onetrack Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I'm not sure what his aims and logic are here, but a lot of it is contradictory. Bridges claims the E-750 is only good for 30 or 40 mile hops, which is what he reckons is adequate for the delivery of urgent medicines - which is what he's targeting. But a lot of areas in urgent need of medicine, are vast distances away from civilisation, that's why they're called "remote". 30 or 40 miles is easily covered by a motorcycle courier with a backpack or a crate on a bike carrier, so I don't see his logic. https://www.key.aero/article/electric-sky-jeep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty_d Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Wrong shape for electric. Similar to the 701, it's got a built in headwind. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgwilson Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 A cheap testbed is always handy. Later you can consider weight, efficiency and energy storage. 30-40 miles range is useless though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Posted Monday at 09:34 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:34 PM I'm not sure why people build these things , its not advancing anything its just buying some existing tech and ending up with an aeroplane that doesnt do what it did before you ripped the engine out. What am I not getting? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
