Drone Zeppelins

The Problem we are trying to solve

and get first performance estimates. We take multiple flight phases and different mission designs into account to calculate maximum takeoff weight, flight time and other performance metrics to get a feeling for the behavior of our future physical concept.

The key technical challenges that prevent that problem being solved today

The key technical challenges are:

  • The lack of adequate data to support the mission design and flight planning.
  • Sound suppressing rotor design and speed.
  • Material research to replace Mylar and plastic.
