If they can fly a small airliner for 30 minutes for $5. Either there’s a whole lot they’re leaving out. or they’re not paying anywhere near what I pay for electricity.
They say the engines delivered more than 1 megawatt of power. Cool, so 1 MW over 30 minutes. That’s 500kWh. Which means if they paid $5 for it. They paid 1 cent per kWh. Now i don’t know about you guys. But i sure as hell don’t pay 1 cent per kWh.
they also dont specify how many kwh they used. which is why i assumed a sustained 1mw of power. they also dont say how much the plane weighted. only what it could potentially carry. that doesn’t mean that’s what it weighted in the test.
don’t get me wrong. cool stuff to fly electric planes. but i can’t help but feel incredibly sceptic when they leave out a lot of numbers while making the insane claim that they only used $5 worth of electricity.
