Exactly! Didn't even mention cruise vs dive. But the latest WR for a quad doing 347mph I think, is just insane, even if drawing multi hundred amps for a few seconds only.

I saw that one too which was also incredible. This latest record was from a few days ago https://youtu.be/8p5eZ4ZRkfY?si=hSxTh5BeSyEwzpy8
Simply amazing! Do you know what the limitations for WR builds are at this level? I am guessing there is some kind of advancement on the prop/rotor(?) side of things but I would assume that those are off the shelf, like many of the parts used in quadcopter builds? I guess what I’m asking if it’s primarily a design challenge, a production challenge, a logistics challenge or all of the above? I don’t mean to minimize any aspect of the process or anyone’s work, quite the opposite. It’s a neat challenge and different teams take different approaches with some overlapping design features to my untrained eye.
Oh wow, that’s even higher than this one I saw from last year @ 298 MPH for a quadcopter, but I’m not sure if this is the same criteria for the WR or build limitations etc?
