Gas engines generally lack the immediate throttle control/thrust response necessary for use in a multicopter. Why didn't we see gas RC quadcopters before electric ones? My sniff smells ok.
Would you want a centralized gas engine powering your 4+ rotors causing them all to fail at once or would you like the complexity of 4+ separate ICE engines trying to work in concert with precise torque output?
The lack of imagination in this post is astounding. In this wall of gibberish you only really made three points: range, excess range, and noise.
Range: evtols are not trying to replace GA aircraft, at least initially. They will start out as air taxis and toys for the ultra rich, but most people dramatically underestimate the rate at which battery technology is improving. Being able to travel 100 miles in 30 minutes without spending an hour on each end dealing with the airport is something unavailable today.
Minimum fuel requirements: rules are meant to serve us, not be handed down from on high. If this does apply to evtols it will be changed. It's a completely different use case. For example the emergency landing options for an evtol are vastly more available than for a Cessna.
Noise: I mean, agreed overall if not in detail. Realistically these things are going to be quieter than a traditional helicopter for sure, but will be higher pitch and swarming around in greater numbers. Annoying AF.
Nobody gives a flying fuck about campaign finance laws with this supreme court.
That's ok. The "clean" ones are dripping with invisible toxic cleaning product.
Implying that Israel gives even the remotest shit about international law seems like misinformation.
LLMs: using statistics to generate reasonable-sounding wrong answers from bad data.
How does 16, 14, or 12 AWG tell you anything about ampacity?
This is due to corporate greed. Solar and wind are the cheapest sources of energy in the history of the world.
Hydro is often turned on and off as pumped storage. Nuclear never is
Out of those you listed, nuclear is the least flexible in terms of output regulation. PV with batteries is the most flexible.
Yeah the poster above you is wrong. Solar is WAY less than half the price.
Solar panels are incredibly thin and light. There is no reason not to include them.
