HUGE growth in HVAC and Chiller pick and place jobs with heavy lift helicopters Footprint of these buildings are so massive a crane cannot reach inward enough, and helicopters are the only option Data centers, factories, warehouses… all need HVAC and chillers

Romi, our electrical engineer, be cooking up some Grade A++ pcb Easter eggs 🤌

Everyone knows Helicopters fly around executives and fight fires. But almost nobody knows their day job All across America, every day, helicopters are building and maintaining civilization Here is a chinook flying power poles and power packs in Florida for a 115Kv line

Emrax motor go brrrrr! Our team is crushing it Sound up for axial flux and gear noises

Today, in Operation CHUNK Thing is an absolute unit. This baby ain’t going anywhere

Rotor test stand is taking shape! Knocking out mounting plate for the load cell and gettin it all welded up. Thing is an absolute CHUNK 😮‍💨

Getting more and more of this every month. Gets me fired up. Totally unprompted, cold inbound. The people want heavy lift! We will provide it. The US and the West will build at a pace and scale that would make the forefathers proud.

TOOB is cut and is now being turned into a 2,300lb rotor test stand for our Mini Me subscale prototype

Choppin and weldin some BIG TOOB today Team is building a rotor test stand with a 6 axis load cell to get high fidelity data on our rotors Some exciting tests coming up 👀

When the Dynamo team has an offsite… we mean OFFSITE.

Our cap table is STACKED!!! 🔥 Takes a village to build a startup. Humbled and honored by the people I get to work with.

You know those HUGE high voltage electric towers out in the middle of nowhere? This is how they get built A heavy lift helicopter, usually a Chinook or SkyCrane, picks up and moves each section in to place while a crew grabs it while it’s swinging in the air and guide it in to place and fasten it down, while the pilot is looking out the window down a 100ft line trying to keep the aircraft from crashing and stable Customers pay anywhere from $250K PER DAY for helicopters to do this work Customers spend this, because it’s still cheaper than building a road and using cranes We did about 800 miles of new transmission line last year. DOE says we need to be at 5,000 miles per year to keep up with demand… There already aren’t enough helicopters or pilots to keep up with current demand… nowhere near enough to support growth Hopefully we can help :)

PSA you can just get a CB radio and yell at all the truckers going under the speed limit in the left lane

The Welding Wizard Wagner strikes again Welding up V2 avionics and battery enclosures for our Mini Me prototype drone Retiring our V1 Home Depot special enclosures

Finally out of the break in period on my Lexus GX470. Time to let her eat

Helicopter fun fact Some of the bigger helos, like the CH-53, have canted tail rotors and pylons to create extra lift to offset aftward CG CH-53 tail is canted by 20 degrees and creates about 2,000lbs of extra lift P.S. Helicopters are insane

From the front lines: The US built 888 miles of high-voltage line in 2024. DOE says we need 5,000/yr to meet demand. When out in BFE, heavy grid stuff like towers, transformers, line, and equipment gets moved and placed by helicopter. Geography, time, and economics prohibit trucks and cranes. Helicopters are the only option. There’s already not enough helicopters or pilots to meet last year’s demand… and nowhere near the amount to hit DOE’s target grid buildout. There’s less pilots every year. Less helicopters every year. And the only real supply are gov auctions and veterans. This is where Dynamo will start. We believe it is vital to help the west build a grid for the next century. If we don’t all want to be speaking mandarin in 10 years, this is an industrial race we must win. Video of one of our advisors air lifting a line crew and tools for attention and the blessing of the algo. Let’s get it 🇺🇸 🦅 🔥

This + Starlink Mini is Peak
