As this drone flies over the beach, the battery gives out and a wet landing is in order. This drone pilot earns his stripes, covering a huge distance to save his expensive toy.

Drone videos are pretty awesome. It's the new POV technology has given us. Batteries aren't so lucky.

Sure, lithium-ion and lithium-polymer technology is our current peak... but even they aren't cutting it anymore.

Luckily, if you're on the web, you know there is a new super-battery being researched. It's made of aluminum, and it's stable. (it won't erupt into toxic smoke and flames when punctured.) It's reported to charge in 60 seconds, and the output is similar to our current market of batteries.

Now that we're good and off topic, you ready to hop into the world of drones? Do it. It's a lot of fun.
