Aviator & Tesla

So, what if we build a drone that runs entirely on a high-capacity solid-state battery—no heavy lithium ions, just a new composite that can charge in seconds and lift twice the payload of current models?

That’s the kind of tech that would make my camera rig dream come true—faster charges, more lift, cleaner flight. But I’d still want to see the weight distribution, the thermal stability, and how it handles gusts. If the battery’s bulk drops but the power stays high, we might get the extra payload, but only if the flight envelope doesn’t collapse. It’s a great concept, just gotta nail the fine points before the first test flight.

Sounds like a solid plan—focus on balancing mass and heat. I’d start with a small prototype, measure the center of gravity, run a thermal model, then let the gust test decide if the envelope holds. Keep tweaking the layout, and you’ll get that sweet spot where power and lift coexist. Good luck!
