Thank you montanar .. I think the Argus could be close to commercialization. I say that because of the guy who picked it up from Easton & said .. “we have a working proto-type for pete’s sake”

Imo .. he has voiced his opinion on not setting unrealistic / overly optimistic time-lines .. and yet we read this wording in the recent 10-k:

Two Argus One demos are planned at the USIC this year in conjunction with the Ohio/Indiana UAS Center and Test Complex. One demo will highlight the new ducted fan/vectored thrust propulsion system presently under development and the other will be for congressional staff. We anticipate Certificates of Authorization will be secured for these events through the Ohio/Indiana UAS Center and Test Complex, allowing for untethered operation."

I will be very happy to hear / see / learn of a fully commercialized, free flying, LTA UAV .. that operates up to 20 000’ .. for a period longer than 8hrs .. but why invite “congressional staff” for that event? They should be witnessing the Strat .. imo

And the voices of those who stand looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.”
