minus-squareNOT_RICK@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·11 个月前Now I’m curious how much a 40km long spool costs
minus-square_cryptagion [he/him]@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·11 个月前Just several hundred dollars, and a visit from the ATF.
minus-squareBastingChemina@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·11 个月前Looking at Alibaba, the “bare fiber for FPV drone” cost around $600 for a 50km spool.
minus-squareFundMECFS@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·11 个月前Very expensive probably. They are selling 1000 feet (I think that’s like 300m) on Amazon for between 300-900 USD.
minus-squareKazumara@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up5·edit-211 个月前Wait that seems like way too much. You can get 40km cabled so with a mantle for 5000 USD Found something even better, here’s a spool of fiber from Corning (they are the industry leader) 24 km for 600 USD Or random alibaba listing: 50 km for 134 USD plus shipping, minimum order 5 spools
minus-squareTire@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up2·11 个月前Still way cheaper than the $58k it costs for a switchblade drone.
minus-squareFundMECFS@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·edit-211 个月前If you take the amazon price as reference. It comes out about the same when adjusted for length, maybe slightly more expensive.
