Will it be quieter than a traditional blimp? Those things things aren’t silent at all when they’re at a reasonably low altitude. And surely it won’t be painted as brightly as the illustration shows, right?

This could be cool.

But it will take a long time. Hope the funding and the desire to spend it are there.

Nothing beats good old grunt work on the ground, if you just ask me.

“The camera is the highest resolution (1024 x 768 pixel) uncooled, long wave 7-14 um and 17 micron pixel pitch system in the world today, except for classified U.S. military equipment.”

“… allows image enhancement to 12 Mega Pixels which is better than any uncooled thermal imaging camera in existence today. In other words you will be able to literally print a 12 Mega Pixel image with a Thermal/Infrared Camera”

Oooh… I like the sound of that…

Agree with you Rose, hopefully they won’t run out of budget before they can do a proper search. From the reports their ranges could be vast… they would need to survey large tracts of land over extended periods to do a thorough survey. From the looks of it though, their in for the long run.

I’m very excited, I think this could provide our best evidence since the P/G film. Tell you what though, if these guys don’t turn up something after a decent interval, I may have to pitch my tent in Redfern’s camp… with big wooden stakes…

If they do this long term, it would be awesome, but if they do a week, or a day worth of flying the drone it won’t get anything.

Great idea! I only hope people won’t start screaming “hoax!” as soon as a Sasquatch is caught on camera.
