This episode has been over a year in the making! After months and months of engineering challenges and various other hurdles, we have come up with a proof-of-concept system to recharge a drone without even landing it!

The fact that Vanover could save the wing after the drone fell off and flip back to line of sight was one of the most impressive parts of this

Glad I could be there for the end of this epic journey!!

Maybe it'd be easier if there was also a rear facing camera on the front of the flying wing so you could see what was going on from 2 angles

If I wasn't wheelchair bound, I literally would have been jumping up and down with excitement. That is absolutely awesome.

You guys don’t get enough credit for what you do, what you bring to the world of UAVs in general. You continue to inspire me. Compliments for the new year and I can’t wait to see what more you have in store for us. Great way to start the year boys 🤟

Trust me the government is watching this and is taking your ideas. 😂

Wright bothers vibe.

I am surprised the battery didn't explode, but the concept of carrying your drone to location and back on a large plane using magnets seems surprisingly usable. If you add a real charger that charges with the max rated speed, you could really extend your flight time/range.

Vanover's reaction time to get those goggles up was incredible. And Bubby was definitely the man for the job to stick the landing. Definitely my new favorite RR video. Shawn, all your hard work was worth it.

at damn near 50, wish I would have kept up with the DIY drone revolution. FliteTest was a big inspiration back in the early days as it was for so many people. The things you do make me want to fly FPV. They make me want to fly everything. The pure honest joy I get from watching what you all do is inspiring and much needed...creative food for the mind and soul. I so deeply say... Thank you.
