A key difference is that war planes occasionally want to be able to rapidly change their trajectories. With sufficient thrust you can fly around in a cube.

- stasomatic 5mo agoWould you a have a link that would show case something like that? It feels like only a T-1000 would be able to make any rapid coherent decisions under such load. Thank you.

Fighter jets benefit from this because when you want to make a maneuver, you're not fighting the plane's natural inclination to stay where it's pointing. You don't need particularly powerful hardware to do this kind of control, quadcopters are an even more obviously inherently unstable example, because any thrust imbalance will immediately make it roll. Quadcopter control loops only need to run at a few hundred hertz to achieve stability.
