he is right, the ability to design custom silicon for drones enables dji to not have trade offs that using an off the shelf mcu/sbc would this also enables them to add capabilities which are damn near impossible in similar sized drones, all downstream of having control over both software and hardware and ability to tailor it to their needs

What has DJI built that no Western drone company has? @soren_ma of @neros_tech: "What DJI has done is develop custom silicon for all the functionality in their drone. This is totally different than basically every U.S. drone company or even Western drone company — no one is building custom silicon. You're just using off the shelf microcontrollers and off the shelf components in general." DJI absorbed two budget mobile phone chip companies, where the cost/performance tradeoff fits drones. The result is denser transistors and tighter integration across the entire system.


Counter-Swarm Defense @bosmeny A Patriot missile costs $3 million. An FPV drone costs $500. All the cost advantage lies with the attackers, and the next wave isn't one drone, it's swarms. Drone defense is starting to look less like operating a weapon and more like running a real-time distributed system. We want to fund founders building the counter-swarm stack.



literally no one buys their flight based on emissions, this is useless information

every YC founder lives in the landing when they could be living with this roof instead you can watch an entire baseball game at oracle man 😭
