In Madeira I was mentioning this project as a non-conventional case of freedom tech 

 without a reliance on sea & air ports, airships are very versatile in this case. 

 My time in madeira is so blurry, but now that you mention it I kind of remember you saying something  

 Poncha and weed tend to make things blurry 

 This is not inaccurate  

 yessir 🫡 slamming long days on it at the moment, gonna be my whole life after i finish up at umbrel. 

feel free to zap me 4 BTC if you’d like some equity. 

 How's the R&D going so far?  

 this is my 4m Minke mk1. now working on a 8m ship which will have solar cells for extended flight endurance, and hopefully better power for handling autonomous flight outside. https://image.nostr.build/dd661544fc51be693bac6a3f6d96ace61b9eeabfbff87fade0271a4d25630504.jpg  

 How does it perform in the wind? You probably just have to work with the currents instead of trying to fight them? 

Also, the foliage looks like Australia? 

 Oh also, are you using something like ardupilot?  

 yep, pixhawk/ardupilot have been good to me so far. but i’m working on moving to this https://github.com/nickrehm/dRehmFlight

20km/h and above winds are deadly for these smaller ships. and yes, this is in melbourne.
