This piece is rather vague. I get the distinct impression that the writer's native language isn't English. So when he says "electric propellers" does he really mean that the drone's fuel is electricity? I looked at several other web articles on this. Oddly, none of them even mentions how the drone is fueled. I'm no expert, but I would think that a craft like that would have pretty limited range and/or payload if it had to carry all its energy in a battery. I wonder if it might be something more like this. http://gizmodo.com/this-hybrid-quadcopter-drone-can-take-off-and-land-vert- 1177032394 http://tinyurl.com/l95usya David Roden - Akron, Ohio, USA EVDL Administrator = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = EVDL Information: http://www.evdl.org/help/ = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Note: mail sent to "evpost" and "etpost" addresses will not reach me.
