cpmac, the Argus One was talked about as having a sale price to customers of $2-3MM.

cpmac, I'm referring to the specs stated for the Argus One airship, not the BIB.

The anticipated selling price for the Argus One was reported to be around 2-3 million dollars. That's a lot for a platform with 8 hour endurance. We've been led to believe the endurance was A LOT longer based on what is published on the WSGI website.

I feel like I've been punched in the gut with what I consider to be a serious limitation of the platform. It's bad enough the payload is limited to 30 pounds, and I understand why, but only 8 hours endurance?

If this endurance is based on the airship traveling full speed for an 8-hour period covering 250 miles @ 31 mph, that might explain it. Normal operation with stationkeeping over a target area wouldn't involve this kind of long-distance travel and normal operational endurance might actually be several days as previously described. But if that's the case, why only state the most limiting condition here? Why not list both cases for endurance? Who is making these boneheaded decisions in the company? Do they know anything at all about marketing or selling their product?
