Minor point, but if you are going to "charge a price per kilometer", then you have as much incentive as helicopters to complete the work as quickly as possible.

Edit: Just adding that the video is excellent. I was imagining that these were significantly larger than what you are using. The fact that you can transport them in a semi-trailer like that is very cool.

We have the same incentive but not at the same level. Our aircraft consumes very little energy so it adds much less costs to stay in the air longer to collect more data.

Thank you for the feedback on the video!
