TOP 7 LONGEST Flying Drones

45 Comments

1. There is a nuclear powered drone that can fly for 7 to 9 years continously before it needs to refuel… An insider 😉

2. can anyone provide some company name which is manufacturing drone for worldwide? note that the drone can fly more than 6-7 hours at a time, and it covers 160++kilometres at a time and can carry 25 kg or more cargo !!

3. Why don't the solor drone people use batteries and let the solor panels constantly charge the batteries and build a proper drone and not that flimsy mess .

4. Imagine what Skynet has.

5. Are these for sale?
   And for how much?

6. Can you name me the Vtx of highest power that have good antannas can be used in a night eagle 2 pro ( a night vision camera )?

7. what type of combination of motor batterie have the hybrix 2.0?
   fuel gen directly to elec motor,or generator+batteries + motor?

8. Great video! As for the hydrogen source, it’s very easy. Build a makeshift electrolysis set up (basically running an electric current into water, separating the oxygen and hydrogen) and there you have it 🙂

9. The drone package delivery market is estimated to be USD 2.1 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 27.4 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 44.7% from 2023 to 2030.

10. If #1 has to hover near the ground in a charging circle then it's not really flying. It might as well land and replace the batteries. It could get back to whatever it was doing in the air faster than it can by hovering 6 feet off the ground in a single spot.

11. CHWAŁA WIELKIEJ TARTARII!!!

12. How on earth does this bird get 11 days of flight time? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar-tailed_godwit

13. RC plane 7 8 7 . United Plane two engine $flight in sky 2000 feet

14. In flight laser recharged drone? Yeah laser power limitations, atmospheric diffusion, and beam divergence are all issues but the inductive charging drone made the list

15. Where is the hydrone griflion availible?

16. For missions that only require intermittent or occasional VTOL or hover, why aren’t there more examples of fixed wing designs -especially “flying wing” designs – that mount the vertical thrust motor/prop units in the body, so that there is little compromise necessary in providing the option of either mode of operation? I would think that transitioning from “copter” mode to “fixed-wing” mode and vice-versa would simply be a matter of changing which motor(s) were activated. Since holding the craft aloft solely by thrust consumes orders-of-magnitude more energy, having a fixed-wing modality available would mean a significant increase in flight duration and coverage area, and more options to trade off those things with payload limits and/or speed performance. It seems a lot of mission profiles follow a pattern wherein a vertical or greatly shortened take-off is followed by a high-speed, less observable and less vulnerable transit phase, then resuming vertical operations for delivery (such as weapons or cargo) or inspection or performing an observation interval, then transitioning again to a transit phase for a rapid return to base. Any thoughts?

17. My cheap Parrot Disco flying wing with 10A li-ion battery mod flies 2.5 hours with unlimited video stream because of a 4G softmod. Last week I traveled 50km's in 77 minutes. I had 40% battery life left and never lost my video feed. I love my drone.

18. Maynard Hill achieved nearly 39 hours and over 1800 miles back in 2003 with almost conventional model aircraft technology. See:-
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spirit_of_Butts%27_Farm

19. I had a drone that flew for 20,000 miles. Actually, it hovered while tethered to a power souce. It never really went anywhere, but the Earth rotated, so I am counting it as a win.

20. The last 1 doesn’t count because it still has to come down to the charging station charge because it’s hovering while it’s charging keeps it from doing anything useful it might as well land

22. Old ideas and limited learrning vs. New ideas to manipulate technologies to do so much more.

    People fail to realize. What we learned in school has extremely advanced with the manipulation of technology and designs.

    People said the same thing about nuclear power and look what it can do now.

    The thing you need to also realize that was old school with lots of limits.

    Kind of like firearms vs. Rail guns. I bet you never would of realized a rail gun is actually more powerful and shoots even faster then a firearm does and is more acurate like a laser beam.
    A rail gun is powered by electricity not gun powder.
    Really "quantum physics" and electronic engineering and new ways to manipulate technology are so much more unlimited.

    I hope you know businesses, colleges, and workers limit what they teach you to control all of it. They do this to sucker you into making baby steps in getting into new technology. The slower they sell it the more you spend getting their. If they went straight from A to z. Look at all of those chances for all of that extra money they would be losing.
    Look at Elon Musk from Tesla Motors. That stuff has been here for lots of years. People been sitting on all those ideas. He seen that and now he is so stinky rich and getting richer.

    He is doing that thing going A to Z straight to steal customers and he is doing just that.
    Businesses could do it to but stand to lose trillions each year over a 20 to 50 year period. While businesses slowly put out those ideas. He is making a fortune from that area and other areas.
    It is like what is the difference between a jet engine and a rocket engine.
    A rocket engine carries it's own oxygen supply for a fuel source to make it burn. When there is no oxygen at high altitudes or in outer space. Just like why a small airplane is limited to altitude less then that of a jet. A jet engine is a compressor to force it into burn. All do to higher up altitudes the atomosphere is thinner or more expanded over a wider area.

    It is also true that we have been sitting on versions of hybrid vehicles that are capable for fuel effeincy mpg in the high hundreds to thousands of mpg. But business squash them.
    Ford motor company bought a carburator that got over 400 mpg back in the 50's for an undisclosed amount of money. They paid the guy and destroyed his vehicle.
    Ford motor company has their own patent storage and sit on technology til they need it. So do other companies.

    It is like the electric car. The auto industry tryed to stop it several times over and it finally got here.
    Just as they are slowly putting out ideas making trillions of dollars each year by slowly putting the tech out there. All to get you to buy another better vehicle to spend your money.
    That is like why do they make vehicles fall apart. All to sell you another one in keeping you coming back for more.
    A great way to get rich and stay richer.

23. U should have mentioned that all of these drones have an astronomical price!

24. I have a drone what can go on for days upon days without batteries. It's called a wife

25. Who else was here just to find a drone that will last long charge fast and be medium size to play with? Not one that uses gas or hydrogen.

26. Is this the serious version of Randall the honey badger guy?

27. RC Airship 1 hour endurance with a 3amp lion battery https://youtu.be/-1M7rmkDyiU

28. alo lindo video desearía que permanezcan haciendo material de calidad… Voy a continuar mirando sus creaciones. Les envio un abrazo chau ??????

29. Incrível !

30. Cool thanks ??

31. No, these are not close to the LONGEST Flying Drones. What did he try to do with this video?

32. What is the price for these tech planet

33. we ,Kids, used to suck energy from High voltage power lines without connecting any thing. We position a coil at the nearest possible location from the power lines… Induction…

34. thus is the stupidest vido ive ever watched. gfy tech planet.

35. I like these except #1, I can't see the utility of it. If it lands then makes a little more sense to have it land at waypoints then continue its mission but why hover. If it has to stay in place then just land. Even if we consider ocean missions a floating landing pad seems better.

36. Hovering right near the ground to charge seems like cheating. Yes, technically it did not land, but it is out of commission for useful work which is what really matters.

37. The longest flying drones are fixed wing. All of them. No way in hell multi-rotors can outlast fix wing in distance or flight time.

    A predator drone can fly for 40 hours without refueling.

38. Surely a gas powered quad would be a vibrating jello-fest?

39. Vcoptr Falcon

40. US-1 The dash is silent. Just say US1

41. id have thought all the longest flying drones would be planes, particularly gliders or solar planes

42. Heat and/or light can be used to generate electricity. If you put some kind of solar collector on the bottom of a drone, could you charge the batteries in-flight by shooting a laser at it?

43. The last one resonant charging!? AWESOME! Now couple that with super caps and turn the hoop vertical and passthrough.

44. Wheres the link to the guys using resonance to charge drones??? Are they still alive ??

45. kindly Sir help me… Send me complete details please…
