at first i read that as a $1500 airborne wind turbine... almost crapped myself
I wonder if they can be scaled down for deployment at residential scale, where wind struggle enormously due to low altitude. If you just gotta attach it to your house and run the power, it would be super fast and easy to install.
I can only hope, that'd be very solar punk
but what about our drones, flying cars, and low flying airplanes?! won't somebody think of the air traffic?!
