Hi , I was wondering about the costs of flying camels into the Middle
East from Australia
..
It would be cheaper to fit them all with coconut necklaces and float
them across the Indian Ocean. Mount a couple of solar panels on the
humps wired to a small electric motor powering a hand mixer ($1.99 at
Walmart) and they become "self propelled". Trick is to keep them
pointed in the right direction. Launch five hundred a week and the
first "batch" should get there by Easter next year. From then, expect
regular "landings". Set up a small stand on the beach and and sell 'em
"hot" from the water (lemonade on the side of course). ;-)
Not as silly as it sounds , I used a solar powered back pack and model
plane remote controls to control camels from many km away with no
problems at all , off the shelf at any hobby store, to direct a camel
in a 100 sq mile paddock, im working on a video option camera
Im working on a solar powered camel and remote control to go from
Darwin to Adelaide without a human in sight
I bet you could launch a solar powered floating camel and guild it to
Saudi Arabia from Australia , like an all terrain vehicle , land mud
sea , camels can swim real well , but would need a rest and
flotation devises
but clearly the costs are prohibitive
