  • Ukrainian drone strikes are the single greatest factor keeping us in the war and holding back Russia. It is through the innovations coming from the front and the support from indviduals and groups accross the world thats making the difference.
    As Ukraine is struggling to hold ground, it’s these guys who are working around the clock to change the outcome of the war.
    That you for your continued support! ⬇️

      I want to help. I think I can build you a fixed wing airframe to cheaply and efficiently make use of the heavier ordinance you've got laying around there.
      I've built some stuff to carry 20-30 pound payloads with a range of over 100 kilometers.
      Pretty sure I can more than double that too.
      Also, I've been looking into how they are blocking your frequencies and interfering with your signals.
      One thing to mention is that you can fly a fixed wing airframe from a long distance away at a higher altitude and then glide to your target.
      You could release your bombs and clear the area without ever making a sound.
      I have been working on an aerial platform for Starlink too....
      I'm not looking to make a bunch of money or take advantage here either.
      I can design airframes that use very simple light strong building techniques that would make it possible for you to completely fabricate these in the field using readily available materials.
      For instance, using a simple hotwire to extrude the wings from some form of packing materials you get a lot of.
      With everything being shipped there you must have access to a certain shape of packaging foam we can design the wing to be made out of.
      Simple white glue and brown packaging paper can make very strong wing skins.
      I can design it build one and test it then send you the files to make as many as you need.

      @@christopherleveck6835 Lol Australia already sent cardboard wax drones to Ukraine, arrive in a flat pack and taped and glued together, these were used in the Kursk airbase attack last year damaging several jets and few S400 systems.
      Cardboard is a good material as hard to pick up on radar.
      Actually around 4 Australian drones in Ukraine with full AI and even AI drone swarm capability.
      Defendtex D40 has inbuilt radar target id and target tracking capability with also soft or hard kill enemy drone capabilties also.
      Like to know if their bigger carrier mother ship drone is used there alsp, has a 80 missile launcher system..

      I think one thing is a bit strange and there is room for improvement when it comes to printing simple parts. Instead of wasting time on printing, everyone should print a mould of the part they want and then make the parts with moulds.
      I mean if it takes 30-60 minutes to print one part but pouring into molds would not take more than 10 minutes for the plastic to cure and you can remove the moulds. And you can pour 10,20,30, 40 or 100 moulds at the same time depending on how much space you have. Then you have 50 parts ready in 10-20 minutes.
      Whoever that are 3d printing all these parts should at least think about just making moulds instead.
      But maybe it is cheaper to 3d print, i do not know why thy are doing it this way.

      I agree. I know it doesn't sound as "nice", but I think most of us who donate don't care where the money goes, as long as it's helping Ukraine as much as realistically possible. I honestly thought damaged drones were rarely if ever recovered. I'd be very surprised if people like Joe and Arthur would be against raising drone repair money, and as long as it's emphasized that it's a more efficient use of money I don't think it would impact the funds raised substantially. I'd wager corporate donations are the ones who care more about PR.

Harley, Joe, and Ihor. Others also, just not so frequently. No virtue signalling. It's, give help , what you can, when you can and if you can. In whatever way you give help.
    The positive spin by some is frustrating when you know how desperate things are.

      @@kentonian dude, similarly i thought i'm useless, but while watching the video i thought may be this problem of everybody having lods of broken maviks with no way to repair them, may be some software can help orgonize it.
      i can make telegram web app, some ui as website, to show how to repair, some supabase db to collect may be stats of parts that can be salvaged..may be creating platform where users can describe their pile of parts, so by just mishmashing them can be useful for repairs - i bet price for new parts is also 15 to 1 compared to salvaged ones. some economy can be created with rarity lavels like in rpg game and bonuses for looting, that can be payed as gas proce for couriers)
      lets team up, you give your xp on hard parts, and i'm on soft ones, togeter we can form some useful power ranger)

    A really informative video Brandon. This really clarifies what has the most impact "bang for your buck" in the drone war - and what does not. Components are number one priority, more so than the whole drone purchases - understood. I hope everyone sees this who has Ukraine's best interests at heart, especially the 'brass' in NATO and politicians in the West. I have read a few infuriating articles though about the inertia of the Western production and the fact that profitability is still, STILL, number one priority for the free market system in the west. We cannot ramp up the war economy until that is solved.
    Big up to Oleg too and all the tech heroes in the workshop doing their (massively important) bit!

    I hope to be in a position to send you some more money in a couple of weeks. The reason I send money to you is that I trust you to use it in the way that you, with your experience, think will do the most good. I'm not that bothered about getting pretty pictures of whatever you spend it on, I'm in this for the long haul, so that when we have the victory party in Crimea, I can say "I helped make that happen". And if, god forbid, we never get there, I can at least think that I did something more than just sitting on my backside.
    So thanks for making it possible for me to do a little bit to help. I'm too old and decrepit to even travel to Ukraine, but thanks to you, and a few other fundraisers, I can at least do something to help.

    Hold on bonnie lad. When you first started you were collecting for IFAKS. You explained why and people responded. You went on to other things like generators. You explained why and people responded. You always tried to tell us how money was spent and why and explained it to us. I personally don't believe that many who contributed have asked for detailed accounting because we trust you. Now we are dealing with, fogive me of I'm wrong, a complete new topic of which , I personally, was never aware. The logic is clear, the necessity too, so get your s..t together, put out another short video and let's get the ball rolling. You've done it before, let's do it again. I personally have never cared who gets the kit. Your stamp of approval was all that was needed. I know you've been through a lot and also have a private life but you've put this into the ether and I know you can do it. You've always done it . This is something that you excel at. I'll expect a follow up sooner rather than later.

    The repair people sound like they are key to innovation.
    Switching pilots from the front lines to these drone camps are building innovation.
    I was thinking there are so many creative people around the world. Not just creative but they have a different approach to innovating. A Philippine fishing villager fixes things in a different way from kids in South America, who innovate a different way from kids growing up in Silicon Valley vs farmers in Alberta. They don’t need to visit the front lines to be of use. They can invent things and send that info to Ukraine online. They can mail prototypes. There can be a few hundred small groups worldwide working on R&D.
