    The point of this drone is that it is SO small, and therefore stealthy. The design principle of making the target weight a priority, rather than down-scaling, is correct. Kudos to these engineers. Now if thermal imaging can be brought aboard, it will be an incredible platform. And Cheap. And available to all. Shazbot!

If you've ever owned one of those things you know that keeping them running is like working on a watch and are incredibly hard to fly (they are basically full scale helicopters in micro form). This thing seems to have the performance without the associated mechanical complexity and difficult control.

    Very cool, but I'm a bit confused about the price. Nearly $200,000 for the whole setup? I realize that this is a piece of military hardware, but I could build something similar (not as small) for less than five thousand dollars out of an Align Trex 700 or 800e with GPS, autopilot, first person cameras, electronic stabilization, a higher operational ceiling, and could potentially carry weapons. Tack on another 10-15 thousand and I could throw in a thermal camera.

    In the beginning, the announcer with the muffled voice said the 'target' was hiding over a kilometer away. But at the end, he said the helicopter traveled 1300 meters. If they found the target, was directly overhead of him, and traveled back, while he was over 1km away, the helicopter would have had to travel over 2000 meters round trip.

      Micro transmitters could transmit to beacons on the GSM network (phones). The system wouldn't have to return to home as that would be wasting a lot of power. Better to get as much surveillance out of the little beast and when it runs out of power, it'll crash and self ignite.
      Alternatively, the receiver would be within a few miles that would have a helix antenna for long range reception (10Km etc).

    • @rasmasyean

      digitalbroadcaster What a great military strategy! Install GSM towers and cell phone base station buildings around the enemy location before spying on them!
      Alternatively, we can place a 50 pound Lithium Ion battery on that little sucka so it can transmit 10 km!

    • @digitalbroadcaster

    • @tewkewl

      shodanxx folks are forgetting that quadcopters require more electricity. this thing is sophisticated enough to be as performant with a traditional copter design. it needs to be skinny and small so as to be undetectable and so the war fighter can fit as many as possible with the least amount of wait in his kit.

      do you know how much money is poured into developing the $5 optical mouse that we can get on ebay these days? Do you know how much money 3M used to develop the sticky note which only costs you a few bucks for a 100 of them? Making something never exist before and bring it into reality is gold. Well... despite of the fact that if the design will be profitable and become popular or not. Not to mention aerodynamic is hard. Aerodynamic is hard math and engineering.... the "worst" kind of engineering....

    • @BrandoDrum
      @BrandoDrum 10 лет назад

      Well, low volume production and r&d mockups will cost more on paper. Think how much the first iPhone before they went into production cost. All of the development time for iOS, the touch screen, camera, battery, processor etc would be lumped into that single unit. Mass producing them though after all of that is setup means 50 bucks a pop.
      I'm fairly certain the negotiated price to keep them out of the hands of the enemy also has something to do with their inflated value. Force the enemy to develop their own by keeping the price artificially high. It's a tactic, not an abuse.

    • @MaRkPerHouR
      @MaRkPerHouR 10 лет назад

    • @xxwzaebd
      @xxwzaebd 8 лет назад

      rainbowsixODST You can get thermal imaging for about $200. Once the market reaches,the chinese makers will make ir imaging a basic functionality of toy drones. Secure communication is also basically encryption and path issue which the Chinese are well capable of. Norway has no technology and cannot even make ships. Europe does not have advanced communication technology and is getting economy aid in such from Korea.

    Wow! Since this is so easy and cheap why are there no videos posted here from you idiots that think you can build one of these for less than a $100? I don't understand how you think this is a toy. Yes you can buy rc heli's with gyro's on the cheap.....but guess what, they are basically garbage. So good luck following this one on the trip he demonstrated. Decent hobbygrade rc helis can cost up to $1000 and the real good ones can easily hit ten grand and take many man hours to build. There are none with these capabilities this tiny. A run of the mill gps unit is $300 and 3 times the size of that pd-100. A lithium polymer battery small enough to fit in there and power all the systems for this thing would be at least $200 alone. In the RC FPV world, something that fly's that far on a gps auto fn pilot costs minimum 4 figures and they are HUGE compared to this little guy.
