Seems like a decent tradeoff. The extra weight would reduce the range, but the gained tank space might make that ok?

- twic 9y agoI imagine the formic acid also has safety advantages: it's stored at room pressure rather than under pressure, so the tank can't explode, and if there's a leak, it won't vapourise. On the other hand, it's reasonably nasty stuff, although far from Things I Won't Work With levels of nasty: https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/ipcsneng/neng0485.html https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/ipcsneng/neng0485.html
