Hello! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website? I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

Nice renderings but “implausible” is very generous and applies to more than just the delivery system. One glaring flaw seems to be the placement of the solar panels on the sides, completely vertical to the ground. This detail aside, if you are trying to lessen the impact of something, it shouldn’t be designed to be delivered by helicopter, one load or several.

The remote cabin is an interesting concept. The aesthetic is concise and the plan simple and functional. Unfortunately, for a helicopter to be used it would need to be disassembled into many smaller, very light units and re-assembled in situ. The whole cabin would outweigh the helicopter by at least 2:1, making its transport as depicted in the rendering implausible.
