Default How high can you fly?

You're plane isn't pressurized because it will implode,


Explode, not implode. Unless it is an underwater submersible?


LOL! Ok Jim, and I hate to do this, but... the self
contained brushless motor and battery system are
sealed, so, yes, you will be
able to fly you Cessna 150 underwater down to
depths of 200 fathoms, which is 1,200 ft.

Otherwise, take it too high in the air and get splodiated.


so you're wearing a pressurized body suit. You have
an oxygen mask. You plane is powered by a very
powerful brushless electric motor supplied by a 20lb
carbon nanotube source that is basically limitless.


Your claims are absurd.


And Galileo was thrown in jail.

I was one of the technical reviewers for the 1999 text "Nanomedicine, Vol
I" by Robert A. Freitas Jr. One of the chapters I reviewed was Chapter 6 on
power for nanomachines. The energy density of storage devices that rely on
charge separation are limited by the dielectric strengths of materials.
They are typically one or two orders of magnitude smaller than chemical
energy storage Some references:

Time constraints will certainly limit me from responding here until
I've read all articles and compared. Your link seems to be about
medicine though.

Your powerplant is equivalent to 700hp in an LSA.
The electric motor and cabin are heated.


That is much too powerful to maintain a sea level speed of under 120 kts at
continuous maximum power for LSA.


Let me qualify then. 700hp in an airplane that weighs
1320lbs, was formerly limited to a stall speed of 51mph
and a continuous straight and level flight at sea level
of 138 mph, until I took the engine out and sold it on
barnstormers, then replaced it with my new brushless
electric motor and high tech battery system.

How high can you fly? 95,000ft?


This will soon be a real consideration.


In 6 years? No.


Sorry. 8.
