It's scary. I'm former military and this would be a perfect hunter killer drone. Scale it up to the size of a crow. Give it small grenades, ping-pong sized "eggs". Imagine a programed version of this thing hoping or flying around on battlefield. A "case-less" .22 pistol inside the robot would make it perfect for hunting people. BTW, those "eggs" could be programmed to explode in a certain direction. That's a shape charge and can knock a small hole though tanks. I'm not that smart. If I've though of this then it's 100% under development.
When time machines are finally invented, scientists could use the RAVEN to transport tropical coconuts back to 10th Century Britain so that all the people could enjoy the convenience of imaginary equestrian mobility.
Gads what an efficient drone. Take the basic concept, scale it up to something like a crow in size, and imagine its "egg" being a hand grenade. The bloody thing could fly to a combat area, hop around on the ground, and then deposit a bomb. This is a very scary robot and hunter killer.
1:15 Also, the propellers make a lot of noise. It would be great if it could fly as silently as an owl. They can be weaponized more effectively than FPV drones.
Silent as an owl flight might be impossible with standard tech since a small propeller has to move so much more than an owl's wings for a craft to stay airborne. But that would be a nice innovation.
I've done a lot of flying in STOL (Short Take-Off and Landing) ultralights, and long dreamt of building an aircraft that could leap into the air just like this. Old age caught up before I could work on it.....
So it's like a modern metal gear. A plane with legs (metal gear ray, which has legs), instead of a plane with wheels (the Shagohod with wheels) It can jump like the Metal Gear Ray, it has a tail like the Ray. Since it can not hover I would not compare it to a drone, right?
In the 70/80s we could buy such "Birds" build from plastic and mechanic wings. They looked like doves and the movement of their wings were like bird. At the tail was a crank for twisting a Rubber band. Does anybody know what I am talking about?
Was expecting my personal home robot to be bigger-can it run a bath? 🤔 Or is this a scaled down version of my production flying car my 2000AD comic in the 1970s promised as Soviet robots landed on Venus?
The government drone people are gonna love this
"I knew it"
CIA already had similar stuff. Check out the Insectothopter from the 1970s. Who knows what they have now.
@@Earth_Rim_Roameryeah and it was a flop remember
Birds are just never going to beat the allegations at this rate
Okay now I need to build one
I didnt expect to see you here. YES we need more DRehm FC !
Do it do it do it >:]
Hola
i never realised that ravens have a BLDC motor inside their beaks. Learn something new everyday!
Yet more proof that pigeons aren't real.
You never see baby Pigeons..........
wait, are you still alive?
It's Afrotechmods!
The jump is hilarious :D
I love this. Even if it never develops into something for practical use this would be an excelent toy. I'm 50+ and I want one.

Can't help thinking that someone is going to build a cat drone to catch these bird drones...
Literally a murder drone
Birds are drones before GTA 6
That's the most amazing VTOL technology I've ever seen! :D
B-TOL

With the way the human species is going, you could transport yourself four years into the future and there you'll be, completely alone.
First cool thing I’ve seen in a long time.
The autotranslated German video title is "FliegenGehenDrohne v4" which makes no sense at all lmao
- "GoingFlyingDrone v4"
Coming to Switzerland for this !!

Well done! 👌🔥
Awesome ! What about landing ?
Since they don't show it in the video I'm guessing that is still something they haven't worked out yet.
Imagine you've just shot a flying pigeon.... The landing that results is how these drones will land. 😂🤣
Now think about the plane you are inside just jumps to the air

Yay let's weaponize this! Hooray for the future
Yay more Surveillance........

"I fuckin knew maaaan"-him
Thanks for sharing.
So it's like a modern metal gear.
A plane with legs (metal gear ray, which has legs),
instead of a plane with wheels (the Shagohod with wheels)
It can jump like the Metal Gear Ray, it has a tail like the Ray.
Since it can not hover I would not compare it to a drone, right?
축하드립니다!!
Imagine being in the jungle with a broken leg and the medevac plane hops off with you like a pigeon.
Should let it fly in nature
This type of tech is my dream ya ,wow you are doing good
so how are you gonna land it?
Did you notice that it never flapped its wings?
Nice
wow amazing
Yooooo how do we get one?
Real-life Gerwalk
visualize a modern commercial jet walking to the terminal after landing ...
I look forward to the first passenger carrying variants
It'll giggle your giblets and turn them into gravy.
I watched this amazing video and then started raven to everyone I knew about it... Just saying
이거야!!!!!!!!!!! 이게 내가 찾던 오니솝터야!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alright now add an ornithopter instead of a fixed wing
In the 70/80s we could buy such "Birds" build from plastic and mechanic wings. They looked like doves and the movement of their wings were like bird. At the tail was a crank for twisting a Rubber band. Does anybody know what I am talking about?
ornithopter

🤩🤩🤩🤩
Pigeon Unions, now is the time to act!!
Ai does that but even way better ways most could not imagine (me excluded).
Make a large model and it will just be Japanese animation look alike.
I wouldn’t want to sit in an aircraft that launched like this, it would be horribly unpleasant 😢
Make robotic mosquitoes
Yes but can you put an RPG 7 on it?
Poor video presentation. All I see is a slow motion movement.
Putting legs on an RC plane get you a nature publication ?!?
Birds aren't real huh
😂😂
birds aren't real
Birds are (gunna be) not real!
You forgot detonator.
We pay taxes for this crap????
