If You Fly a Drone in a Closed Box on a Scale, Will the Box Weigh Less?—Mind-Blowing Experiment!

If you have a closed box on a scale, and fly something in it, like a drone, will the box weigh less when the drone is in the air vs. when it is in the box? What about with the lid off? Or with no box at all, just hovering over the scale? In this video I answer these questions and talk about why what you see actually happens!

    I think the weight will change, but the air flow presses air down on the scale so that it doesnt lose as much weight as it should

    This totally blows my mind...

    You are bad at flying drones

    It won't change because it needs to apply equal force to push off the ground. If anything the weight should increase

    The closed container stays at 0 because for the drone to take off it needs to exert 21grams of thrust before it can take off, which is pushing the scale down. When the drown starts to fly up, the box doesn't way more because the amount of thrust extra output is negligible. When he hits the top of the box, he is pushing down at X grams of force, and pushing up on the container at X-21grams of force, therefore the scale will NEVER be anything but zero. Unless you put your hand in under the drone, then the air wouldn't be pushing on the box as much, more on your hand

    Guess, the aire pressure taht the turbi s make activate the weight

    This is an experiment for stupid people

    You have a very interesting and addictive channel. Ive always been curious about strange things like this but never had the knowledge to run tests. Great shit !!

    You have to practise flying that thing, for Christ's sake! Your explanation got pretty murky when you started substituting mass for force. Don't ever do that.

    No change in weight, calling it now

    Tricky miniature image. I DON'T LIKE THAT

    it need the negative weight of it got it to fly, so when the drone fly, its weight lifted upward, but at the same time, negative value of its weight are pushing downward

    When you caught the drone and weight went to a positive, you should have increased the RPM to match 90kilos of downforce! You'll become negative weight meaning you'll start to fly 😋

    The weight will go up on all of them

    Great demonstration! Mythbusters did this with birds in a semi-trailer. Basic physics predicts this of course.

    These videos must have a conclusion part in the end cz they are so long that not everyone could watch !

    The box will weigh less because the low pressure on the inside will cause the box to be slightly lifted by the higher pressure on the outside.

    There are a lot of people commenting that planes don’t fly by throwing air downwards but rather by the pressure differences created by the airfoils. But remember that the normal-pressure air well above the wing pushes down on the lower-pressure air immediately above it, effectively "squirting" air down and behind the wing in a backwash. In other words, the pressure difference that a wing creates and the downwash of air behind it aren't two separate things but all part and parcel of the same effect: an angled airfoil wing creates a pressure difference that makes a downwash, and this produces lift.
