The "Show Me First" Hurdle

​

Every pioneering hardware technology faces the “show me first” skepticism. While this response is natural—especially when something promises to upend decades-old paradigms—the reality is that many of the most iconic breakthroughs, from commercial wind turbines and solar panels to smartphones and electric vehicles, all required belief and support at the pre-production phase. For The Stingray, the reality is even more compelling: almost every component in the system is already off-the-shelf, mass-produced, thoroughly tested, certified, and backed by the world’s most trusted brands. This means that while the fully assembled system awaits its first capital-backed model, there is almost zero component or supply chain risk—a unique strength rarely seen at this stage in technology development.

Attracting the Visionaries: Why Support Now Matters

History rewards those with the vision to act before everyone else sees proof. Today’s opportunity is especially rare: a chance to help build the blueprint for a better world—one that addresses energy poverty, water access, food security, internet and communications, economic development, and climate resilience in a single, elegant system. By acting, early supporters will join an elite group of changemakers who will be recognized as founding members in a coming global transformation. Your engagement is what accelerates the transition from “show me” to “show the world”—with extraordinary social, environmental, and financial returns as a result.

FAQs

​

1. What stage is The Stingray at right now?
The Stingray is fully engineered, with every component detailed, sourced, and confirmed

as off-the-shelf (there are three 3D printed components) and widely available.

 

2. How do I know the components are reliable if there isn’t a full model yet?

Every major component (electronics, power systems, communications, structure) is already

operating in tens of thousands or even millions of applications globally and is backed by

leading brands, ensuring proven reliability and easy service.

 

3. What is the timeline for seeing the first operating production model?
Once funding is found, we anticipate the first Stingray will be assembled, independently

validated, and demonstrated publicly within 180 days.

 

4. Are you working with recognized partners for manufacturing and certification?
Yes. Manufacturing, installation, validation, logistics, and service partners are all industry

leaders (see our business plan for details). Third-party certification will be done by

DNV-GL, a global authority in field validation.

 

5. What is the expected financial return?
Each Stingray unit offers less than 2-year payback, with projected 2,173% ROI over

20 years and multiple recurring revenue streams, dramatically outperforming traditional

alternatives.

 

6. What happens if there are unforeseen technical problems?
Because we’re using only pre-certified, proven components, technical risk is extremely

low. Modular design allows for easy upgrades or replacements without costly downtime.

 

7. How will you keep early supporters informed?
Invetors, early sponsors, and pre-sale clients will receive regular, transparent updates

—including build progress, certifications, live demos, and rollout milestones.

 

8. Can I visit the first demonstration or participate in pilots?
Yes, the founding partners are welcome to visit projects worldwide.
