Filling the cell completely won't work because as helium is released by a control valve, the strat will lose lifting power and fall.

Using mistressphaedra's math, to get to 65,000 feet, for every 40,000 cubic feet of helium it will lift 142 pounds (40000 * .064/18).

Once our payload weight is known, we add that to the weight of the strat for a total weight. Total weight * 18/.064 gets us back to the minimum cubic feet of space for helium it will take to get to 65,000 feet. The actual helium will be 1/18 of that number at sea level.

Onestroke not necessarly waste of helium

Sanswire has posted on their website that they have:
"Proprietary Lifting Gas Technology" so perhaps they have mechanisms to fix this issue.

I won't worry about things like that since that is hands of engneers and there is nothing i can do about it. It makes an interesting conversation. I however can keep asking about updates on production timelines and past annouced events. I would hope all us on this board demend this from company as shareholders. I have sent an email to Mr.Huff here if you would like to check it out. I urge everyone to keep demanding this from company as a shareholder as this is in our intrest. Hopefully if enought push it will be addressed in next CEO shareholdes letter. My 2 cents
