Oh, okay. No, no, Jay. Hopefully Jay will join us sooner or later [37.65] Jack: How's it going guys? [39.69] Adam Juniper: I'm very well. Thank you. I'm back in the lovely United Kingdom. Yep [44.77] Adam Juniper: Engaged what a country and engaged. Yes and staring at a scary brain graphic [53.17] Adam Juniper: And for those of us listening on the podcast later on on the live stream, we currently have a scary brain graphic [58.99] Tony: Wow, see [60.83] Jack: Yeah, it's on that. It's on the canvas. It's a bit. It's a little bit trippy. But yeah, we've been listening to hardy mills [66.47] Jack: How are you guys adjusting to the new time schedule? [70.23] Tony: Hey, it looks way better. Yes, I'm here. Well good. I like it. Oh, is that Jay? [75.83] Jae: Yeah, hello everybody. Oh, hello [79.91] Jae: Dark and cold out here, but hello. Oh, hello Adam [83.91] Jae: Oh [87.03] Jack: The jay is back. Yeah, we were a little bit lost without you. We haven't heard you for ages [92.63] Jae: Yeah, there's a little bit [94.95] Jae: Running around in mountains jumping in cold freezing cold literally freezing cold lakes and rivers and now i'm back stronger i'm better than ever [103.75] Jack: voice of doom says [105.75] Jack: satan music for jay [108.39] Adam Juniper: Oh, yeah, he knows me too well [110.79] Adam Juniper: What was the film that ruined ruined my my's career like literally the worst film ever that's got to be all [117.43] Adam Juniper: The sex guru love I thought that was gold member [122.15] Jack: Uh, no, he went he went worse than that. Yeah, tony i've seen you've been out car park flying with uh, dan [129.43] Tony: Yeah, me and dan went out. Um [132.05] Tony: Tuesday, I think it was first time in a car park pretty scary, but [137.19] Tony: i'm i started flying the [139.83] Tony: Diatome 150 on 3s [142.55] Tony: um [144.39] Tony: I got used to it and then [146.87] Tony: took the took the 180, um [150.23] Tony: 4s [151.51] Tony: cobra motors [153.51] Tony: Uh qav [155.03] Jae: Which was a lot faster. Oh [157.51] Jae: So it's 2016 and did anyone see the uh unveiling of the chinese quadcopter that's carrying a person? [165.67] Adam Juniper: today [167.67] Jae: Doesn't it look bad a couple years ago for youtube. What would the bit or even the uk one that has like a hundred? [176.95] Jae: I mean today say it's it's apparently going to do like 63 kilometers an hour [181.43] Jae: Up to 11 000 feet. Uh, i'd like to dodge some [185.27] Jae: Last 11 000 feet [187.27] Jae: I know I was thinking 23 minutes [189.35] Jae: It's going to go up pretty quick to get that high and right only then you're going to get into the world of 747 then [194.71] Jae: That thing versus the 747. No, thanks [198.63] Adam Juniper: No, it's going to make a good mess of an engine as well something that's [203.03] Jae: I think it'll be interesting to see how they're going to integrate that into the current manned aviation or uh, you know world [209.27] Jae: But it's it's needed. I think we need to start looking at these things at some point soon [214.79] Adam Juniper: I can see the caa simply banning aircraft of any kind because it would save a lot of trouble [220.23] Adam Juniper: You wouldn't have to go to the you know, just take the train to paris [223.67] Adam Juniper: And then and then hitch [225.67] Jae: Interestingly enough though the caa you you take it on like a single piston engine thing or you know [231.03] Jae: Like it's on the actual engine [233.03] Jae: And the one thing that's yet to really take off pardon the pun is electric engines and even electric aircraft [239.43] Jae: so [240.47] Jae: I think it'll be an interesting decade ahead of manned aviation and unmanned aviation [245.67] Adam Juniper: I suppose the first few 788 787s off the line didn't do the um [250.07] Adam Juniper: The imagery of electric any good catching fire while they were sat around doing nothing [254.63] Jae: Yeah, exactly and even the Tesla road didn't do too well on the cars really in the first few but [261.75] Jae: It's it's it's progressed and i'm all for these things flying around just not over my house. Thank you [269.11] Adam Juniper: Not in my backyard [277.03] Jae: To be honest I I don't suffer from nimbyism I love everything that turns including wind turbines, but [283.99] Jae: I think we do need to think about what how this is going to get [287.27] Jae: Regulated and how we're going to actually have our own manned aviation because let's face it backyard inventors are doing it already [292.87] Jae: It is the first one to do it where it looks a bit more [295.91] Jae: Like it should stay in the air [297.83] Adam Juniper: For 20 minutes does look cool [300.15] Adam Juniper: I just I don't really understand the point of doing it as a quad. I think that if you're going to have a person [305.03] Adam Juniper: Why not just have you know opposite rotating blades? [309.03] Jae: Oh, no, it's it's a natural state. It is a it's a octocopter essentially. It's an x8 [314.15] Adam Juniper: Yeah, sorry. Well, yeah x8 either way [317.27] Adam Juniper: Why not just have two blades like there was a crazy japanese guy did it about 10 years ago? [321.43] Adam Juniper: It sort of worked and then you take up much less sky [325.99] Jae: I think redundancy i'd rather have eight propellers than I could lose one [329.91] Jae: Maybe two there's that there's that [333.19] Adam Juniper: Um, I suppose. Yeah, so you're saying the sanity of somebody in the x8 is slightly higher [339.43] Jae: Yeah, rather than the fitness ball mounted landing gear of the german [349.0] Jae: God that thing was scary [352.6] Jae: He did and there's the other one I think wasn't it the uk where there's a guy in a park and his wife's filming him [358.68] Jae: He survived [360.12] Jae: Have you not seen the other version of the? [363.32] Adam Juniper: I won't tax my connection at the moment, but uh link us in chat jay link us in chat [368.76] Jae: See if I can find it. Yeah, let's see if I can find it because it is quite funny to see [373.4] Jack: Yeah [374.6] Jack: Yeah, the e hang [376.68] Jack: It hang [377.72] Adam Juniper: No, yeah, yeah, so yeah, it is essentially an x8 [380.36] Adam Juniper: Yeah, he had you know the people who brought you the ghost drone [384.84] Jack: The what? [386.52] Tony: I don't like them people [389.24] Jae: Yeah, it makes the ghost of you real [392.28] Jack: Tone i'm sure you posted a link earlier on in um, the [396.44] Jack: Uh on google and you were like, I like this and I don't know what it is [401.8] Tony: It is the new unique [404.42] Tony: Typhoon h the new drone coming out [408.84] Adam Juniper: The first one with collision avoidance detector. Well aside for the dji matrix the first one with collision avoidance technology [416.2] Adam Juniper: Yeah, that's the one with it looks pretty good starting at 17 99 us [422.04] Adam Juniper: So basically the same price as a phantom advanced [426.36] Adam Juniper: Is that the top one the professional that the the most expensive phantom anyway, but this one will avoid a tree apparently [434.12] Tony: Yep, and it'll fly around it [438.23] Adam Juniper: Or just into a slightly smaller branch that it didn't see [442.15] Adam Juniper: But I mean leaving leaving aside that it's you know [444.63] Adam Juniper: The idea that collision avoidance technology has come to a point that people want to sell it is really exciting. Yes [452.07] Adam Juniper: I flew a yonec uh the q500 [455.69] Adam Juniper: Recently for a review and that's not a particularly new drone [460.25] Adam Juniper: But it's 900 pounds. It comes in this amazing flight case [465.21] Adam Juniper: It comes with a hand controller so you can take the 4k camera off put it into your hand grip [470.65] Adam Juniper: You know like the new thing from dji the osmo. Yeah, it's just free and in the box [475.69] Adam Juniper: There's no question of charging you another 300 pounds for it. Awesome [480.89] Adam Juniper: Yeah, and they've been selling that for a year [482.89] Adam Juniper: And because it's not quite as elegant because they maybe didn't have the same press and pr as dji dji [489.21] Adam Juniper: It doesn't get quite as much coverage and it looks a little less steady in the air [493.93] Adam Juniper: But they had 4k first [496.49] Adam Juniper: It was a great. It's a great thing [499.37] Adam Juniper: And you know call me a sucker for the freebies, but a proper flight case included [504.81] Adam Juniper: Yeah, that is good and and they got 60 million dollars of investment by intel not long after that [512.01] Adam Juniper: So, you know hence the technology for [515.53] Adam Juniper: processing [516.57] Tony: Yeah, it's the intel what's um [519.29] Tony: using they're using that for the [521.85] Tony: Avoidance system, aren't they? [523.85] Adam Juniper: Well, they're they're you know, since they've got that money line around [527.53] Tony: Might as well [530.17] Jack: Oh my god, i'm just watching the swarm [533.29] Jack: Jay just linked me. I know [535.61] Jae: Can you paste that into the saturday night? [537.85] Jae: So because it's hard for me to do it for my phone, but apparently gets how much that costs to build [543.03] Jae: 6 000 pounds. Oh, yeah [545.13] Jae: Oh, yeah [547.93] Jae: I mean the fact that it's got an umbrella for a canopy just wins [552.73] Jack: That is really scary [557.61] Jack: That is unreal [559.69] Jae: Just enough he's he's with uh under the 150 kilo max limits for unmanned aircraft but manned aircraft anyway [567.13] Jack: What even with him in it? [569.77] Jae: Probably um [571.45] Jae: Wow, no, if you think about it, it's probably only going to be [575.05] Jae: Yeah, right [576.33] Jae: It probably is with him in it and it says maximum lift 164 kilos. They're not playing with much [583.05] Jack: Oh my god, it works. It's actually working [586.17] Jack: Wouldn't be able to listen to me [587.85] Jack: Have you not seen that one before? Yeah, no never if you if you paste that in the saturday night show everyone needs to see [593.85] Jack: Done done it. Yep. There's a link in there [596.33] Jack: Sworn manned aerial video [599.37] Jae: It says it's back to the pioneers of uh aviation but with bits that you can buy off the shelf [604.41] Jae: You've got to give credit to these people and even credit to his wife to be that close to something that looks like deadly [611.45] Jack: That's more blenders than they have in curries [614.97] Jack: You know like strapped to like half a sled with an umbrella in the middle of it [620.65] Jack: That is [622.49] Jack: An alarm chair that flies and a little cooler lie with the batteries underneath it probably [629.21] Jack: All right, he's even put little orientation lights on it. I ask you [634.65] Tony: I think we should try it out. I think we should build one [638.25] Jack: It'll definitely lift tony. Yeah, I'll go off in it [644.25] Jae: We're controlling it [646.89] Jae: Yeah [648.25] Jae: I mean you don't want to have your receivers that close to your transmitter. It might like uh, [652.49] Jae: Yeah, drop out of the sky in a brownout. So at least if we're flying from the ground [657.45] Jack: Yeah, i'll line a sight your tone [659.69] Tony: Oh, yeah, i'd like that [661.77] Adam Juniper: Well, I think we'll put someone in it [666.17] Adam Juniper: And they can just have an inflight movie or something [669.45] Jack: Oh, that's even worse [671.37] Jack: Like you don't know when you're gonna die [673.93] Adam Juniper: Yeah, i'd rather look at my deck you can look round, you know, it's just like being in a real plane. Oh, no [682.57] Tony: Can we have some shout outs for people on the chat [685.69] Jack: Yeah, if you want to start reading some names do it [688.97] Tony: Gavin ferry. Hello, mate [691.19] Jack: Sx today [694.01] Jack: We've got bradders in the chat. I think johnny bannon join the chat bradders. Why why isn't he on the on the on the skipes? [702.57] Tony: I don't know. Have you seen the pictures of his uh, 210 today? I think he crashed in the mud. Um, if you guys had a clean [710.89] Jack: Slate to start on the fpv league, what would you do? What would I do forward firing rockets? [719.77] Jack: What the like idiots lead [722.41] Jack: league [723.45] Adam Juniper: Well, I think you can learn a lot from super mario cut [726.25] Jack: I don't know because like I never like all I ever do is like one lap [731.37] Adam Juniper: What's the rules now? Is it um timed or is it number of laps completed? [735.77] Jack: We have no idea if you've got these transponders and you start off with 28 points [742.57] Jack: If you manage to do one lap [744.73] Jack: Uh, your points goes down to 27 [748.01] Jack: So if you successfully do a lap you get less points than if you don't do any laps [753.53] Jack: And then I don't how does it work? Have you got any idea? [758.09] Tony: No, I just fly and then say if I won or not and they normally say no [763.45] UNKNOWN: Yeah [764.33] Jack: And then you ask what channel you're on. I don't need a transponder for that [768.09] Jack: They're on about selling transponders ordering a load in so you can have your own [773.29] Tony: I think that'd be a good idea for the summer [775.69] Tony: Yeah, yeah upcoming races so you can be set up before you go there and [780.49] Tony: You haven't got to keep panicking about taking it on and off for the next bloody person [784.73] Jack: Yeah, that will be good a lot less stress. I think that was [789.45] Jack: Cost are they there's no massive cost implication. I think they're about 30 quid though. So I think it's a damn good idea [796.65] Jae: Yeah, that's probably the top end [798.89] Jae: There's not much to them [800.65] Jae: And if you buy in bulk, they're going to be a much better value [803.13] Jack: Yeah, I think I think that is the sort of bulk price [806.49] Adam Juniper: Why not just have like electro, you know gates are electromagnetic, but just electronically watched gates [812.65] Adam Juniper: So like like a traditional running race [815.77] Adam Juniper: So your time starts as you fly through the first gate [820.09] Adam Juniper: Stop when you fight through the last gate [822.65] Jack: Um, because there's multiple pilots [827.21] Jack: During one race [829.29] Adam Juniper: Yeah, we'll stop doing that [831.29] Jack: Okay, well just time trials on your own. Don't take even longer [836.09] Adam Juniper: well, we did i'm just thinking back to last year at the um [840.97] Adam Juniper: Um [842.97] Adam Juniper: At the mansion [844.97] Adam Juniper: in the woods [847.37] Jack: Yeah, um [848.49] Jack: Hardly any of us got through [850.89] Tony: I did [852.25] Jack: You managed it? [853.69] Tony: Yeah [854.49] Jack: Well, look at you time. I didn't know you did I? [857.93] Tony: Who the hell is that and what is it? I blame money penny [861.85] Tony: What are you doing in your car money penny? [864.97] Jae: What what what are you talking about? Nothing. Oh my keys, baby [869.69] Tony: No, it's like someone was using sellotape and wrapping me a present. Oh, sorry. No my bad. I was rolling it [875.77] Jae: Yeah, I I was gonna say actually that didn't sound like me [880.25] Jae: sellotape [881.61] Jae: I kind of forgot where it was [883.69] Jae: Yeah, naughty. Adam bad Adam [886.17] Tony: So yeah, I didn't know you then britain. Um, but yeah, I managed to get through a couple [890.97] Tony: Pardon me a couple of times [892.97] Jack: I'm checking you out time [895.21] Adam Juniper: That was a tricky circuit [897.45] Adam Juniper: It wasn't easy had done her best to prevent drones from getting around that [902.49] Jack: It went it got easier though as people attempted it because they were slowly pruning the trees away [909.21] Jack: Yeah pruning the trees away [910.73] Jack: So then you got like a larger area to fly through [914.17] Adam Juniper: Plus bits of shattered drone made it easier to see where the ground was [918.73] Tony: Drops everywhere [920.73] Tony: That is when I flew [923.05] Tony: I never used to fly acro then I that was probably horizon made through there. I [928.89] Jack: Don't think you'd want anything else really? No [932.73] Jack: It was like the uh last [935.85] Jack: FPV league the one inside the paintballing arena where yep [941.45] Jack: You had no choice but to fly horizon really at least [946.73] Jack: Port a level [948.89] Adam Juniper: Ah now that is an idea [951.45] Adam Juniper: The combination of paintball and FPV [955.37] Jack: What FPV weapons on drones or [958.73] Adam Juniper: No, no, no, that's too much like hard work [960.89] Adam Juniper: You just have like 20 angry teenagers with paintball things. You've got to fly through and hope no one gets you [967.85] Jack: Oh no, I don't know [969.85] Jae: Uh, well, it sounds like a fun fun game actually [976.07] Jack: Yeah, that's it. But some of these guys are a real crack shot. You'll never make it [981.43] Adam Juniper: Depends on the angle like if you put them to the side it's going to be a really tricky shot [985.27] Jae: Yeah, if they're behind or in front a little while ago I in the us [990.15] Jae: Yes, there's uh like a plane where people can buy shotgun shells to shoot at a plane and it gives off an explosive charge [996.07] Jae: So essentially they fly this plane back. So it looks like a delta wing [999.19] Jack: That's how drones got charted, you know the first maybe the wing racing we could do that [1004.47] Jack: Speaking of wings um parrot released a new wing [1008.23] Jack: It looks good [1011.03] Adam Juniper: I yeah, I definitely want one of those well, except the parrot were tied to [1015.99] Adam Juniper: What was it a sister company released a wing for farmers and stuff and it was about 10 000 pounds [1022.07] Adam Juniper: So i'm hoping this one's going to be a bit less [1025.03] Jack: It should be once you didn't you lose a parrot once? [1028.71] Adam Juniper: Me? Yeah. Ah, yes [1031.51] Adam Juniper: My first road well, it was kind of my bad [1035.19] Adam Juniper: Um when they released the um, thanks whispers gps device [1039.51] Adam Juniper: Um, and I programmed it to go around the pier in Brighton [1043.43] Adam Juniper: Um, that was before, you know, we were terrified about using these things [1047.59] Adam Juniper: in public [1049.35] Adam Juniper: And uh, people just thought they were fun and interesting [1052.39] Adam Juniper: but [1053.75] Adam Juniper: Did a little testing to see if it was going all right [1057.19] Adam Juniper: And then I left that battery on for the main event [1060.87] Adam Juniper: So it had a half charge battery those batteries only last eight minutes [1064.47] Adam Juniper: It got half it got halfway to the pier and he just saw it sink [1068.23] Adam Juniper: And it was because it's wi-fi [1070.47] Adam Juniper: So it's already out of range. So I can't call it back even once i've realized [1074.55] Adam Juniper: What's going to happen so I could just see what's going to happen as it slowly happens [1081.91] Adam Juniper: While I was in Greece, I flew the inspire out across two kilometer bit of water [1086.63] Adam Juniper: Um [1087.67] Adam Juniper: But all the time i'm doing it I get a complete projection [1091.27] Adam Juniper: Of how long I've got with the battery [1094.31] Adam Juniper: And how much battery i'll need to get back [1096.79] Adam Juniper: Assuming the wind is not too strong [1099.99] Adam Juniper: Whereas with and if it reached a point where the drone didn't think it could get back [1104.31] Adam Juniper: Or thought I was being an idiot. It would just turn around and come back as quick as it could and land where it starts [1110.55] Adam Juniper: Whereas the old parrot didn't have that thinking process [1114.39] Adam Juniper: So, uh, no, it's in the it's still in the channel somewhere that appear I think [1119.11] Tony: If you want it, it's probably washed up by now [1123.19] Jack: Yeah, well they weren't they made out of polystyrene so surely it would flow [1127.83] Adam Juniper: There wasn't much polystyrene, you know, you leave because you left the top of the hull off if you're using the gps bit [1133.43] Adam Juniper: It was a very jerry rig kind of arrangement [1136.79] Adam Juniper: You know because you had that really cool looking swappable hull [1139.83] Adam Juniper: And you had the indoor bit with the big round bumpers [1142.79] Adam Juniper: You could take that off put the top on at a sort of angular looking middle bits for the for the outdoors [1149.27] Adam Juniper: But he took that off as well [1151.83] Adam Juniper: When the gps unit was in because even a little bit of polystyrene was enough to stop gps working back then. Oh my word [1159.03] Jack: I'm gonna have to give someone their first warning on chat for [1163.03] Jack: posting something highly inappropriate [1165.51] Jack: Go [1166.71] Jack: Go fairy i'm watching you see i've got to click that now. Yeah, he he's uploaded [1171.11] Jack: What could only be described as a dog poo with some props sticking out of it? [1177.27] Adam Juniper: So phantom one [1181.43] Jae: Uh, I'm glad I got jay will I why do I find that so amazing? I think that's quite funny [1186.07] Jack: Yeah, oh no. No, no, actually I retract my statement. It is actually a quad. I think it is [1191.75] Tony: It is a qav 210 [1194.95] Tony: What brad is piloted into the mud? [1198.95] Jae: Yep [1199.75] Jae: Ah, jack. Yep, are fully aware of uh, poo coptering aren't you? Yeah, none of that [1206.55] Jae: Oh, no [1208.31] Jae: Did it bring a bad moment for you? Are you gonna sleep tonight having seen that photo now i've got i'm already in a cold [1213.91] Jack: shoot shoot [1217.19] Jack: Yeah, what did you what did you film and fly? [1220.55] Jack: jay in um [1222.31] Jae: On your little adventures on my little adventures. Uh, well, she's been away pretty much a retreat actually [1228.79] Jae: What it was was I was quite amazed at how many people I impressed at the retreat [1233.11] Jae: for because it lights up and it's quite colorful and [1237.11] Jae: Men and women wanted to hold it touch it [1240.55] Jae: Oh, that's what I love [1243.51] Jae: Stoked it a bit and they felt oh they said that's quite heavy, but it's small [1247.75] Jack: Um, so what you do with it that counts [1250.31] Jae: It's not the size. It's what you do with it [1253.83] Jae: I mean, it was good to catch fire people [1256.63] Jae: Uh with the 250 that lights up like christmas tree [1260.63] Jae: And people you know people have seen things but it's always fun when people had to engage in conversation [1265.75] Jae: There was a language barrier because I couldn't explain everything in english [1268.95] Jae: Uh, sorry italian and they couldn't ask everything in english, but it was good fun [1273.83] Jae: And in fact, it was good to uh show the potential for these things [1277.91] Jae: And um, no, I was surprised at the men the women actually coming up and wanting to engaging with [1283.03] Jae: Having you know with me seeing these things fly. It's good to see that it's not so gendered [1289.03] Jae: Yeah [1292.47] Jae: I had a quick flight in uh [1294.55] Jae: Around pisa and uh, yeah, it's all good [1297.99] Jae: I didn't have to get as much flying as I would like weather was not so great [1301.59] Jae: And also it was in city centers that I was traveling around [1304.39] Jae: I was more intrigued by taking some street art photos all good. What are you gonna say Adam? [1310.87] Adam Juniper: I was gonna say that i've always found abroad where maybe the media is only historical about god related issues [1317.59] Adam Juniper: That drones are fine. It's you know [1320.39] Adam Juniper: It's here where you have trouble now [1322.47] Jack: Because we've got over god and you know [1325.59] Adam Juniper: A little more interested in various ways that you should fear the world. I don't know. I don't know [1331.43] Adam Juniper: Maybe it's because I don't understand what's on the tv [1333.35] Adam Juniper: But when you're abroad the most of the news seems to be related to various celebrity sex scandals [1338.39] Jae: I guess they're a bit more common in this country [1342.63] Jae: Than they are in some other countries. I think [1345.51] Adam Juniper: Just to get the impression we get a bit more fear stuff like in the u.s [1349.03] Adam Juniper: um [1349.91] Adam Juniper: because [1350.79] Adam Juniper: I when I mentioned last week that i'd seen a show, you know [1353.35] Adam Juniper: I think of being very positive about drones in greece [1355.75] Adam Juniper: There was another piece that was very positive about growing just someone showing beautiful photography of a [1361.35] Adam Juniper: Definitely beautiful go to countryside and people very interested because it's you know [1366.07] Adam Juniper: I think you know where we were a year ago. Maybe drone sex scandal [1370.39] Adam Juniper: Sorry, it has just appeared in the chat. Does anyone want to tell us about the drone sex scandal? I'm clicking on it [1375.91] Adam Juniper: Is that the drone? [1377.51] Adam Juniper: Autographic thing or not [1379.51] Adam Juniper: Maybe it's somebody tried to have sex with a drone [1383.19] Adam Juniper: Let's hope not [1385.27] Adam Juniper: Oh, look i'm just looking at the video [1387.59] Jae: They can't have sex anymore because at least every room themselves in the gene pool in a less fated way [1393.67] Jae: Yeah, it's got to be worse than a vacuum [1395.91] Jack: speaking of conspiracy theories, um [1399.99] Jae: Speaking of conspiracy theories [1401.99] Jae: No, no [1406.95] Jack: Yeah, shush [1408.95] Jack: No, tony tony believes the world's flat, right? There's nothing wrong with that [1413.83] Jack: Okay, but do you remember do you remember the time that the uh, uh phantom ended up in [1421.27] Jack: The white house? Yeah, the white house. Yeah [1424.07] Jack: That has got to be staged, isn't it? [1426.55] Jae: false flag false flag [1430.39] Tony: Yeah false flag, wait it's all set up it's all set up [1434.31] Jae: It could well be [1436.39] Jae: You know [1437.99] Jae: Who knows that i'm not gonna speculate on that [1440.39] Jack: I [1441.99] Jack: Reckon it's [1442.95] Adam Juniper: I'm not really happy to believe it was just you know, a boring accident [1446.63] Adam Juniper: The the 30 mile thing is crazy [1449.27] Jack: Yeah, you have to put in a bit of effort for that around washington [1452.47] Adam Juniper: Because they extend it they originally created a 10 mile radius around, uh washington after that incident with the with the drone [1459.51] Adam Juniper: Uh, well the phantom, um, and and then they extended it to 30 miles quietly over christmas [1465.99] Adam Juniper: Effectively closed down a huge number of flying clothes [1470.23] Adam Juniper: It's been there for years [1471.83] Adam Juniper: I thought was uh [1473.51] Tony: Not very nice [1475.51] Tony: Yeah, I mean [1477.59] Jae: That only really affects [1480.31] Jae: Anything that you're flying with gps and it doesn't stop people flying 250 races that much [1485.67] Jae: Okay, the regulation the law does [1488.55] Jae: Yes [1489.59] Jack: but there was um [1491.43] Jack: any of you like [1493.11] Jack: subscribed to stone blue airlines [1495.83] Jack: on youtube [1498.47] Jack: Yeah [1500.15] Jack: Yeah, they recently uploaded a video [1502.79] Jack: Um where they sat down. It was like i'd be crazy and all those guys [1506.39] Jack: They sat around having a chat and stuff and they were saying how they they had like a little theory that I thought maybe [1512.47] Jack: where [1513.27] Jack: dji [1515.19] Jack: Might be trying to like buy their way into like their legislation. So their their theory was that [1523.03] Jack: um, you know, if we're gonna [1525.59] Jack: If we're gonna start shutting down and like clamping down and restricting these [1529.91] Jack: um [1530.79] Jack: Dji could be like hey look we've got the solution here, you know, we [1535.19] Jack: We've got like the gps and we limit and we could be the way forward that [1540.55] Jack: So that if if people do want to fly they've got to use [1543.91] Jack: the the gps restricted [1546.71] Jack: um [1547.59] Jack: Software and like hardware and stuff and that means that for anyone who wants to fly they've got to then go to them [1554.23] Jack: Or start having licensing [1556.55] Jack: And subscriptions to buy into that to use on other quads and they've kind of like monopolized the market [1562.79] Adam Juniper: I um, I don't think it's just I would say that dji have to be showing [1567.83] Adam Juniper: That they're doing a lot to restrict, you know doing absolutely everything they can to [1572.85] Adam Juniper: Accommodate the needs. Yeah, I don't know if you've seen the the beta for the new version of dji's software [1579.91] Adam Juniper: Because the the drones can not take off within airports already or within certain designated airports [1587.43] Adam Juniper: But the the phantoms don't have enough space on board to carry all of the regulations for ever changing airspace [1594.23] Adam Juniper: Who do you think it is? [1596.23] Adam Juniper: So now their software beta [1598.47] Adam Juniper: Will make the pilot [1600.55] Adam Juniper: In the where they where they take off [1602.95] Adam Juniper: Will use the phone's gps to detect where it is check against a live database [1609.59] Adam Juniper: And then depending on the traffic light system if you're if you're next to an airport [1613.43] Adam Juniper: You'll be in a sort of red zone where it'll still not take off [1617.19] Adam Juniper: If you're in a sort of a questionable area [1620.55] Adam Juniper: The thing will ask you whether you want to or not bearing in mind the warning it gives you [1626.07] Adam Juniper: Um, or if you're somewhere where it should be fine, it'll just let you take off that seems quite reasonable [1633.19] Tony: But well, are they charging you you have to give them a credit card details or a phone number, don't you? [1639.43] Adam Juniper: To it's really it's just anyone who's registered either. Do you mean the faa or do you mean dji? [1645.27] Tony: I thought uh, they needed some kind of credit card or phone number [1651.99] Jae: It's just it's just registered owners. This is sorry I dropped out but is that to disable the uh, [1658.63] Jae: Restrictive yeah, yeah credit card debit card mobile phone or a registered email address [1665.51] Jack: Yep pilot sex offender list [1668.71] Jae: I'm all for that actually and I think these have done a good thing. I think that's a really sensible way of approaching it [1674.55] Jae: Yeah [1675.27] Jae: Same look if you're gonna do it you can do it [1677.75] Jae: But you're gonna get at least you we're gonna make sure it's you and we'll know it was you because we look at the flight logs [1683.59] Jae: That's a sensible way of doing it. I I fully support that [1687.59] Adam Juniper: And it also it allows for people with a certain qualification to say yeah, well i'm allowed so, you know [1693.43] Jae: Yeah, but I understand I've done everything in place for the planning exactly [1698.79] Jae: So well done dji [1700.47] Jack: Seen as we're on this topic [1702.71] Jack: I'm gonna pull a pin out of a hand grenade and then go [1706.15] Jack: And then see whether you guys will right i've i've got one saved post right it's on faceballs [1712.71] Jack: Aladdin near us has just posted this [1715.43] Jack: And some woman just replied power's gone out locally for the village indicating his runner 250 has killed part of [1723.43] Jack: North wales national grid [1725.81] Jack: Infrastructure, so he's had a fly away the walkie a runner people think that it might have hit the power station [1733.27] Tony: Oh, is this another scary story? [1737.67] Jack: Yeah, I know I know and he says like I don't know man [1741.27] Jack: There's loads of it since i've seen this this morning [1744.55] Jack: Basically, it's kind of blown up a bit pun intended. Did you see what happened to phil scofield? [1749.83] Adam Juniper: He went into the pond to get his drone out that he got for christmas and he hurt his leg on the way out [1756.55] Adam Juniper: That's gotta be this being reported being reported as a drug related injury [1760.87] Adam Juniper: Whereas I blame gordon the gopher, right? All right [1763.35] Jack: Let's try that i've i've put the i've put the link in the in the chat [1768.47] Jack: You guys can have a look but yep christmas fly away [1772.79] Jack: Whoopsie. Oh dear not good, but of all the things to hit though. Yeah, not ideal [1778.31] Adam Juniper: Well, I did years ago [1780.15] Adam Juniper: There was a lot of discussion about what would happen if the ira to give you an idea of how long ago it was [1786.61] Adam Juniper: targeted just a few power hubs in london [1789.83] Adam Juniper: And what an effect that could have [1792.15] Jae: And then it was worrying. Sorry. Sorry, Adam. I didn't mean to try to [1797.51] Jae: It's stuck net targeting our power stations forget the drones [1801.83] Jae: Cyber warfare is here and actually that's probably like [1805.83] Jae: It made me think when they're talking about that chinese thing flying it's controlled with a microsoft surface tablet security [1812.15] Jae: Firmware blah blah blah blah blah blah [1815.11] Jae: The danger is more to do with the actual software security rather than the actual flyaway mechanical aspect of these things running into stuff [1823.03] Jae: And they're only going to get more complex in their technology and they're only going to get more [1828.39] Jae: You know, you know at some point the encryption is going to be required to actually [1833.35] Jae: For the control signal as people are going to be pulling these things out of the sky [1837.43] Jae: And that's more of a worry, especially when we move toward the manned aviation thing [1842.15] Jae: The fact that stuck net can get through under the radar of many things is proven to the iranian centrifuges [1849.75] Jae: Just think of the possibilities of a similar thing or even more advanced software [1855.43] Jae: Payload against drones and other things [1858.47] Adam Juniper: and power stations [1860.55] Adam Juniper: I mean if you had evil terrorist goals, why go to all the effort of um [1865.19] Adam Juniper: Hacking a thousand dollar drone when you can go and buy a thousand dollar drone [1870.55] Jae: Oh, I know what i'm saying is there's going to be a transition from a thousand pounds or you know [1875.83] Jae: To inspire to then your manned aviation multi-roader aircraft and that's the danger [1881.75] Jae: You know what? It's a shame even if it did hit the power station [1885.03] Jae: But I think we'll have bigger things to worry about like fillets [1888.63] Adam Juniper: In his drone has anyone seen um the eunuch one unique one unique [1893.91] Adam Juniper: Never know how to say that. I have no idea what you're about [1897.43] Adam Juniper: It's unique. They want to be unique don't they but they can't write it. No [1902.55] Jae: How do you spell unique uh eun [1907.19] Adam Juniper: That's exactly how I would spell it though [1912.55] Adam Juniper: The one which is like an extra for the q500 no, I haven't seen it [1917.19] Adam Juniper: So what it's like looks like a tv remote. It's got a sort of d-pad on it [1921.27] Adam Juniper: I think like a wee remote but black and when the remote is you're holding it level in your hand [1927.75] Adam Juniper: the d-pad is [1930.31] Adam Juniper: pitch and roll [1932.31] Adam Juniper: So, you know just moves around the sky [1935.83] Adam Juniper: Then if you lift it in your hand and so the thing's pointing up and down vertical [1941.67] Adam Juniper: then the up and down [1943.51] Adam Juniper: Now turn into throttle so, you know go up go down. So it's you know, it's designed for a um [1949.91] Adam Juniper: GPS loiter mode [1951.35] Adam Juniper: But and then it's got a different mode where you can just point it a bit of the sky and press the button once [1957.11] Adam Juniper: And it will go there. Yeah, that's right [1959.59] Jae: That's like the did you ever see that I think it was university of pennsylvania. They did the acrobatic [1964.95] Jae: juggling [1965.99] Jae: Quads, and they fly through windows [1967.99] Jae: They did it [1969.03] Jae: I think it was a ted talk where they had a wand that they could just point and it would go to that point [1974.39] Jae: I remember which is [1976.39] Jae: quite an interesting [1978.63] Jae: I love the [1981.03] Adam Juniper: Raphael someone yeah. Yeah him. He was a genius. Yeah, it seems like [1986.39] Adam Juniper: It seems like they're doing all the running when it comes to clever ideas at the moment. I like the one [1992.55] Tony: I've seen the ones with a pole and they can [1995.51] Tony: Throw the pole to each other and the drone catches it on its [1999.51] Adam Juniper: Head as it was so that's the same guy [2003.11] Adam Juniper: the ted talk [2005.11] Adam Juniper: Yeah, yeah, the same incredible or scientistian [2009.99] Tony: Absolutely incredible. Yeah [2011.59] Jae: Did you see the one where the guy was chopping two blades off of uh, [2014.79] Jae: His props and stuff or two props off and it was flying with just two props [2017.83] Jae: I mean some of the stuff that they've done with these things is amazing [2021.83] Jack: Yeah, I mean we are knuckle draggers really [2024.63] Jack: We are in the bloody stone age of the current possibilities, which is worrying really [2032.23] Jack: It is it's just mental isn't it like it's just going too far [2036.55] Jack: Five years from now right guys [2039.99] Jack: Like tony's gonna be flying with his mind [2044.31] Adam Juniper: He's already flying in his mind they put all these devices on people's brains to scan them [2049.11] Adam Juniper: Yeah, you know, so and tell the person to think left and think right and the technology is, you know [2055.57] Adam Juniper: Incredibly high tech and then they demonstrate it with palm. Yeah [2060.63] Jae: I think that was a long time ago. There's a fair way now. It is consumer detector stuff now [2065.67] Adam Juniper: Oh, yeah, and they oh, yeah [2066.79] Adam Juniper: That's true because you can get them from mind body and spirit people, you know [2070.47] Adam Juniper: To calm you and it detect i've definitely seen them sold as a sort of technology [2074.71] Adam Juniper: Yeah, and they deliver the right most soothing and calming tone. Yeah, and then you've got the balance [2081.19] Jack: balanced bracelets and [2083.19] Jack: the the magical um [2085.35] Jack: What is it? Scientology? [2088.55] Jack: Holding things [2090.07] Adam Juniper: It's all a lot a lot more high tech than a good old fashioned lobotomy [2093.51] Jack: Can you guys suggest the cheapest easiest to buy quad for beginners? [2098.31] Jack: cheap near 250 or 180 [2101.83] Jack: Cheap enough for a child to crash and doesn't that he doesn't need to get upset. I'd go hubs and every time [2109.03] Jae: I always say that absent all the time just to get started all the time or even one of the cheaper ones [2114.31] Jae: But don't get one with the really small remote and hubs don't get [2118.63] Adam Juniper: Don't don't get you know [2120.63] Adam Juniper: If you think in racing in the future don't get anything you have to control with a phone [2124.47] Jae: The other one is the sama. I think they're a bit too [2127.91] Jae: Troublesome with the gear things you can't find them indoors and getting an indoor one is always the best bet [2133.03] Jack: And you can't find many indoors. So definitely help that or cheap version of yeah, or if you want to spend a little bit more money [2140.31] Jack: What is it the blade nano qx? They're amazing apparently. Yeah, they're really good [2147.19] Jae: That's the first one i'd say a hub send for the first one and then maybe [2152.15] Jae: Get one of the others seriously if you're going to spend any money [2155.91] Jae: Get the hubs and if you can't spend that much, you know, spend 20 quid get one of the cheap chinese ones [2160.71] Jae: It's like the ia shin but not the really micro ones and nano ones go for a mini one micro [2167.19] Tony: Not not too small and fiddly aren't they to learn on? Yeah, especially the controls to learn on [2173.43] Jae: Okay, they give you the orientation but and mode two mode two all the way always go mode two [2178.71] Adam Juniper: Yeah, we're not now australians here mike. Oh, but what is what are they mode one? No, that's it. Yeah, they're [2185.43] Adam Juniper: Almost everyone's mode two now [2189.75] Tony: Bsm where'd they all fly? Uh mode one witchcraft [2194.63] Jae: Try and say they don't fly mode one. They fly mode two you'll find like some of the heli guys [2199.67] Jae: Uh, sorry, the plane guys started off mode one and in the uk a lot of people were mode one for the helis [2204.87] Jae: I'm sorry for the plane and they had to swap mode two [2208.47] Adam Juniper: It's weirdly. Yeah, it's british people. I don't know [2211.75] Adam Juniper: Old ones with their really established white beards [2215.91] Jack: But they don't like wads anyway magic crystals [2219.35] Tony: They normally have wires on their um [2223.59] Tony: On their planes [2225.59] Tony: Wires on their planes and then sandals, uh shorts and socks and they go around in circles [2231.35] Tony: That's them that that is mode zero [2235.11] Jack: Ground zero [2236.23] Jae: Yeah, and then we won't even talk about three or four mode two everybody right guys any last thoughts [2241.43] Jack: Or should we sign out? [2243.67] Jae: Tend to live by now [2246.31] Jae: Love you all and uh, make sure you're going out flying at least once this week [2250.15] Jae: Can you hear them? Got something borrow somebody else's [2252.87] Tony: I'm gonna go tonight and broadcast uh live on youtube if you want to watch me flying in about 20 minutes [2260.47] Jae: Listen to the link man. Yeah [2265.75] Jack: Thank you you've been listening to let's drone out you have been joined by the [2270.31] Jack: ex-australian [2273.91] Jack: My arch enemy tony [2276.39] Jack: Hello boy. Thank you tame sky productions [2281.19] Jack: The lord of master [2284.07] Jack: Okay, thank you and you've been listening to let's throw now and i've been jack bright until I fly [2290.07] Jack: I hope so either that or you guys i'll give you guys permission to put me down [2294.79] UNKNOWN: party on guard telemetry last
