ok! thanks for the insights!

Yeah, we're convinced that H is the way to go for LTAs.

noted! how do you know that this a regular part of the O&M?

I don't understand why it would catch fire and explode without any reason... Plus H2, if not pressurized does not explode is burns quickly upwards. Somebody who experimented this explained it in the comments.

Fire is not a problem for us. We can quickly move out of fumes or hot winds from the ground, we can go higher to observe its evolution. The challenge would be wind. Windy days are the ones that are most at risk of wildfires.

Yeah it's actually something that some companies are thinking about. But the weight of the PV is too much compared to the energy it can generate.

Yeah, it's crazy how it's less noisy even compared to small drones simply because our propellers turn slower (because we don't need them to hover)

For now yes we make flight with human pilots nearby. Soon we will do beyond visual line of sight flights!

It moves quite slowly our cruise speed is between 8 to 11 m/s.

Yeah! We've had some interest to do that!

We have the same incentive but not at the same level. Our aircraft consumes very little energy so it adds much less costs to stay in the air longer to collect more data.

Thank you for the feedback on the video!

Thanks for the insight. For now we have no data/ML team. Our clients know this and for now are ok with it or on with getting raw data.

We have a nice runway already but it's definitely something we watch closely.

The EU is one of the strongest market in terms of regulation. Hard regulations, strong authorities. If we success in Europe we should be able to expand everywhere. We already have the support of the French civilian aviation authority!

Very interesting thank you! Is there some way for us to connect??

Thank you for the feedback! Will change that quickly!

Thank you so much for your message! I would love to pick your brain if you are available, is there a way for me to contact you?

Basically, the airship drone has more payload, more range of inspections, and less risks to fly (more visible for other users of the aerial area, and falls slowly to the ground in case of engine malfunction).

Client should pay at least 3x times as much to get the same service from drones. Again, it's not scalable using drones that's why our clients keep using helicopter on 90% of their missions.

It's an engine that's mounted on a gyroscope. Which means that the propeller can turn in every direction.
