>>534109601My Dad did 20 years in the CAF as a tin basher, then 20 more in civy aviation. When he retired he build dozens, maybe hundreds, of rc planes.
>>534110258>When he retired he build dozens, maybe hundreds, of rc planes.Why don’t you start a drone company?Just promote it as a “Made in Canada” patriotic enterprise.In most cases, you’ll be able to secure a substantial amount of investment.

>>534110979Suppose you could build the cardboard out of plastic like those mail carrier boxes? Kinda smart really. Could fit like 10k in a container, 10k depending on engine size I guess? Wonder how light they would be in the end... this is interesting, maybe not groundbreaking.

>>534109601Those are target drones, they can obviously use more durable water resistant materials.And they can buy 3,000-5,000 of them for the price of a single patriot missile.Or ramp up production in ANY cardboard factory and decrease the price.Stored in a flatbox and assembled in 5 minutes.But hey, it's okay if Australia does it. Or Ukraine (they got the aussie ones a few years ago). Or North Korea (copying the ukrainians).
