"Gravity potencia" es un poco de un tramo. Esta cosa es básicamente un blimp otro cartel como ya se indicó. Supongo que esta lista vid para dar la impresión de gravedad de una tecnología revolucionaria que obtuvo los espectadores, pero no creo que ninguno de ellos son lo suficientemente estúpido para pensar que un globo rígido tiene nada que ver con la "gravedad poder".
isnt that what an ‘airship’ is?
OK, put solar cells on the wings and body. solar cells add more weight than the plane can efficiently fly with, plane crashes, newbie scientist dies in test flight, problem solved.
The concept of creating buoyancy with helium and atmospheric air or gases are elemental to.
technology is evolving to make stronger nd liter materials which would provide greater cargo weight lifting capacity.
consider the concept “buoyancy”. It has been used to cause things to rise and sink in gases and liquids.
Its indeed an interesting idea, but to go up, you need energy, to travel, you lose energy by friction at least, great concept, but some freshman wasn’t thinking through his term paper.
does anyone actually believe this shit?
just use a bloddy blimp pusher by compressed air, isnt that easier?
compressed air…
compressed air…
compressed air…
compressed air…
hmmmmmmm. is that the only solution to everything on this plane?
amen on your last sentence
I was listening until they got to the part where they compress air using pneumatic motors driven by…compressed air.
It takes energy to compress gases. Where does the energy for the initial supply of compressed air come from? The to re-compress the helium so you can get back down, you have to do work against it- so the “rigid shell” would actually have to be a pressure vessel, and that ain’t gonna be light.
The swing wings are pointless, since this thing would be slow as molasses.
Top speed (unloaded): 6 miles per hour!
Total Payload Capacity: up to 3.5 kittens.
Susceptibility To Kids With Slingshots: high.
Ability to land in windspeeds greater than a sneeze: low.
But seriously, at least someone is making an effort to deal with energy concerns, for which I applaud them.
Hmm but what about its cruising speed?
It’s a very interesting concept. But my question is, does it really work? Sure it looks good using a digital model, but will it work if we take it out of cyberspace and put it on Planet Earth?
An external source of energy it gets the tanks somewhere along the air in more air in the tanks you might be able to.
Compressed air stored by using compressed air?
please don’t say compressed air again…. pleeeease
Otra quimera -
The model and music is gay.
idea interesante. No soy un ingeniero o científico, así que incluso si estuviera a explicar con más detalles la aerodinámica y la otra física. Tengo algunas preguntas pertinentes. velocidad de crucero? Cantidad de carga útil? Número de pasajeros? y por último, aeronaves fueron juzgados y suspender en pasenger y la carga hace décadas debido a cuestiones de seguridad, tiempo y fiabilidad. ¿Cómo estos temas se abordarán?
It will work because of the orbit effect. do you see rocket engine on satellites or planets for that matter? as it descends, it
accelerates faster compressing the air faster. it will fall at approx 1:60 of the circum of the world in one trip. now granted that may not be enough to perpetuate the craft continuously, but they would be able to last many trips and occasionally compress more air on the ground.
why isnt heat or grav perpetual? because everything is prpetual if you think about it.
this just seems far too fancy full and to be honest a bit of a pipe dream.
