I find that extremely hard to believe, unless you're exclusively talking about sending drones to attack a specific location with a time crunch, I don't see any reason why a drone wouldn't be charged to full. Especially since that figure probably includes unarmed drones used for ISR
- blacksmith_tb 2y agoThe documentaries I have seen on YT suggest Ukraine is building >1M drones annually, which would be enough to cover going through 4K daily, ballpark. Lots of those FPV videos do show various "low charge" warnings, maybe it just doesn't make sense to fully charge something that's basically a guided bullet on a one-way trip?
- creaturemachine 2y agoFPVs fly a few KM before getting to a target, so the battery will be low by the time they get to the part worth recording. There's no need for a return trip since it either finds a target or is intentionally ditched. Also they use li-ion cells which can be run to a lower voltage than a lipo, which is normally what the flight controllers are configured for out of the box.
