Now I’m curious how much a 40km long spool costs

[–] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago

Just several hundred dollars, and a visit from the ATF.

Looking at Alibaba, the "bare fiber for FPV drone" cost around $600 for a 50km spool.

Very expensive probably. They are selling 1000 feet (I think that’s like 300m) on Amazon for between 300-900 USD.

Still way cheaper than the $58k it costs for a switchblade drone.

If you take the amazon price as reference. It comes out about the same when adjusted for length, maybe slightly more expensive.
