There are probably models that can act as repeaters. Isn’t the 1 mile range for fiber optic wired ones? You can control a drone by satellite if you want to.
Does anybody here actually think drone swarms aren’t the future?
Both, nautical mile and metre are derived from earth’s dimensions: One nautical mile is an arc second at the equator, i.e. its circumference is 360·60 NM. One metre originally was 1/40000 of the circumference through the poles (or 1/10000 of the distance from a pole to the equator).
How many feet in a mile?
Five tomatoes (5280)
Thank you for the mnemonic.
Easy. One mile is 1609.34 meters. One meter is 3.28 feet. 1609.34 times 3,28 is 5278,63.
So you just need about six drones to reach the necessary altitude…
Only if 5 of the drones have little arms to control the next one in the chain

It’s probably not the replacement for everything else though.
Some fibre drones have a range of 10km and that can only go up, I think. It’s crazy.
Depends on your shoe size
Doesn’t it also depend on how long the mile is?
What’s absolute freezing? Did you mash up absolute zero, as in zero degrees Kelvin, with freezing, as in zero degrees Celsius?
Yes actually.
YSK only three countries on Earth use the Imperial system of measurement, Myanmar, Liberia, and the U.S. The hostility is not needed.
It’s very easy if you remember that are 3 feet in a yard, 22 yards in a chain, 10 chains in a furlong, and 8 furlongs on in a mile!
but what if they’re above water and we need to use nautical miles?
Those are actually much saner: 10 cables in a nautical mile and 100 fathoms in a cable.

Ah, now it makes sense!
