carpet out what oh hang on [169.46] Tony: if he goes to somewhere you if you point it at the carpet you pretty much know where you are [174.9] AndyRC: hang on hang on have they seen this carpet before that way i don't know you'd meet this [182.58] Curry: pornography it's really in the north or in some eastern european block country it's one of the two [189.94] AndyRC: yeah looks like a brothel isn't it i was gonna say we've got a room that still looks like that here [198.18] AndyRC: a dog room and stuff not what we do up north yeah looks like looks like just someone's [204.02] Ash: vomited over the carpet last one i don't keep waking up i think and i've drunkenly stumbled [212.98] Ash: into a brothel but no it is a hotel in romania it's a really nice it's a beautiful place but [218.82] Ash: it is just the weirdest decor what is this i mean look at this bit here why why why are you always [226.82] Jack: in romania ash what's what's there work his other wife ash works is africa what what [238.74] Jack: what kind of work um boring it stuff no it's great curry house judging by that carpet [248.82] Ash: the great thing is you never need to vacuum this carpet because you just if you drop something [255.14] Jack: it's gone you never see it ever again you drop something it'll make you look better [261.3] Ash: that's very nice over here it's actually a bit of an it hub over here and a lot of companies [266.18] Ash: are outsourcing their it to uh places like romania and poland now instead of india because it's just [272.02] Ash: a better time zone and they speak great english and they get the job done really well so and what [277.22] Ash: you drink what you're drinking there looks like your own [283.54] AndyRC: tour vogue or however you pronounce it [287.46] AndyRC: check out the color of the thing that i've got [291.14] AndyRC: milk cocona ball i'm glad it just looks like milk on the camera [296.74] AndyRC: oh [304.1] Curry: to help you go to the toilet is it that sort of stuff [308.98] AndyRC: if i drink too much of it i'll probably end up on the toilet yeah i've got i've got a dilemma [315.22] AndyRC: because i've received a product today and i'm not sure if it's okay okay as in politically correct [323.06] Jack: well shellers and we'll be an excellent judge hitler fancy dress [327.78] AndyRC: it's made of rubber it's it's on topic it's a drone product [333.22] AndyRC: it looks like hitler i wonder if i'm not sure it's gonna it's a battery that's all it is it's a [339.54] AndyRC: battery is it shaped like a dildo um is that okay i don't think this is gonna come up are we after [349.54] AndyRC: the watershed yeah in the uk it's gonna be backwards is that backwards full sand full sand [356.1] Ash: can you see the girl riding something yeah [361.7] AndyRC: can you can you um there we go can you see it's like a naked blonde girl riding a rocket [366.74] Frank: yeah that's exactly what it is it looks like kind of world war ii nose out [372.02] Ash: yeah it does i think considering the picture they were quite safe with the name of it [376.42] Ash: hang on i got uh and they give me some stick give me some stickers who's it is it you [381.7] Jack: why do those stickers they're what i said tony would like to study those stickers [389.78] AndyRC: i don't i don't know where uh i don't know where these have come from because uh yeah i've i've [397.06] AndyRC: obviously um accepted uh so someone said shall i send you some batteries and i've probably [404.42] AndyRC: drunkenly said yes i don't know where they've come from but now i'm like is that okay to have [409.86] Ash: a in in these days yeah yeah man what worried about what these batteries are intended to go into [416.18] Ash: though with pictures like did they send you anything else no no i just i don't know i just i [422.74] AndyRC: just what you aren't you scared to say anything these days without offending and you are on this [428.9] AndyRC: show yeah i know that that's why i was asking you got might actually yeah you guys would say [435.46] AndyRC: anything wouldn't you so you'll be like yeah yeah put it on and then like i'm on the news on the news [441.7] Ash: at 10 or something only 14 minutes in and someone's already said dildo so i think you're quite fine [447.14] Ash: with reviewing that sexist drone operator review channel only three percent of our audio i don't [454.58] Ash: know about you guys were channels but only four three percent of our of my view as a female i [459.06] Ash: think that's a real shame that there's so few girls in the in the whole thing well that's that's [463.46] Curry: triple my percentage it's 15 or more 15 they're all waiting or tony is that because tony he doesn't [470.74] Frank: show up in any of these videos he's just got footage he just doesn't mean 15 he just means 15 [477.7] Frank: uh [483.06] AndyRC: minus another lady's night minus two percent and i would wager that uh some of those are um [491.78] AndyRC: potentially males using their females partners account even so who knows you know [500.74] Jack: well that's presuming they might be gay they might not have female partners [504.9] Jack: they might be gender-specific that's it just allow you to identify as non-binary for example [516.82] Jack: feel free to be a sexist did you like [521.54] AndyRC: that's true as well like it says it says two percent female and then like you know the rest [528.18] AndyRC: the percent male but where are all the 79 other genders percentage homie bought his a laptop for [536.02] Jack: his dog so you'd get an extra viewer and subscriber owie's junior liking it he finds it a bit hard to [543.3] Jack: do the thumbs up though he does paws up oh mike dread is here what's up mike dreads my favorite [552.74] Ash: person oh i love emcee i have to give a shout out to emcee everywhere and he's such a constructive [563.54] Ash: decent guy with all of his comments he ever made some videos so agreed emcee you are you are a good [569.14] Ash: guy you're the sort of viewer that us youtubers want on our channels not like some of those [576.26] Ash: pieces of can we say shit pieces of height the poor andy has commented on his [584.98] Jack: where do you your comment section is like the toilet of the internet [590.74] Jack: admittedly i'm on it but you know like some of the comments i've left you [595.14] Frank: i bet you scroll all over the toilets jack [598.34] Tony: yeah we got um hpi in the chat what's up hpi guy he said um that dread is a legend which he is [609.06] Frank: he also says that he identifies as an esc [616.58] Tony: what firmware because if it's um i think i think it's flight one i think he's i think hpi guy is [624.1] Tony: trying flight one with this uh new mode that everyone's talking about which i can't even [629.62] Tony: remember what it's called now this is the kids one in the last one really sim mode i did want [637.54] Curry: to ask andy about his last video with his um like six million dollar quad because when you were doing [643.7] Curry: it and you started going through i did slightly start expecting to say and of course i can't fly [648.74] Curry: naked i have to buy clothes kaching and i need to live somewhere so this house as well is all part [654.74] Curry: of the transit space kaching you just see the flow you go up and up and up yeah well i i don't i don't [661.22] AndyRC: buying a field i just i included everything that you need and yeah i'm with you on this um andy [669.22] Tony: arcy petrol money for driving to the field kaching oh that being horrible i'm i'm like totally get [676.9] Tony: what you were saying you do reviews of um like 99 dollar drones but you can't just fly a 99 dollar [684.58] Tony: drone because you need a transmitter you need the goals you need the batteries exactly [691.22] Ash: everything that's wrong with it from the factory as well so yeah i think i think the thing i i think [695.62] AndyRC: the thing i didn't realize and what i think has upset most people about that video is that it [702.58] AndyRC: truly reveals how much that we have all spent and we thought and i didn't really i didn't i thought [711.3] AndyRC: i this this is what you know if you want to be mr steel or in rotor riot this is their gear that [719.54] AndyRC: they're using and a lot of us are also using that gear and i think i think a lot of people saw that [726.18] AndyRC: figure and thought damn that's how much i've spent and that wasn't my intention at all my [733.22] AndyRC: intention was i've been um doing these budget ones where they they say 99 cocter's and i just [741.06] AndyRC: so happened to have finished this i wasn't even going to do a video on it i wish i hadn't now [747.78] AndyRC: don't ever think that i actually i actually built that cocter too because i was [756.66] AndyRC: you know flying flying with you guys to have something when when i go because i just don't [761.86] AndyRC: you know i never have a copter for myself so it was just have like a kiss set up and it's still [769.46] Jack: you didn't mention me though you didn't say that you were inspired by and the tony is wrong i think [775.38] Tony: it was me that it was no it wasn't that actually characteristics of tony's flying it was none of [784.18] AndyRC: you guys it was me getting the footage back and it being crap so you know what i think that you [791.06] Ash: made what nailed it for me and is when you said that you've been flying this frame for ages and [796.9] Ash: you've not broken it you think about how many how many of the people watching now have had a quad [802.02] Ash: where you've crashed it broken the frame and you can't be bothered to strip all the components out [806.82] Ash: of it because the carbon fiber was such low quality and it just sits on a shelf somewhere so [812.82] Ash: good for you i don't ever regret putting a video out like that because for the few troll comments [818.02] Ash: you get the majority are positive so just ignore those knobs yeah yeah no it's all good it's all [824.1] AndyRC: good i think as well you know um if you don't have people who don't like this this is the fun [830.74] AndyRC: funny thing like sometimes i post on facebook those funny comments i i could do make it is [837.94] AndyRC: nowhere near the amount that i'm actually getting i'm just it that facebook could have 10 of those [845.94] AndyRC: a day on and that's just i that's just what it is like to have you got loads of subs that's why [853.22] Tony: yeah exactly i love i love your uh i love them when you post up then i just like makes my day [863.22] AndyRC: i mean i tried to be in that video i tried to say look you know i'm not i'm not saying you anyone [869.78] AndyRC: should spend this amount of money what i'm doing is i'm saying last week i checked out a hundred [875.14] AndyRC: quadcopter this week it's it's going to be like a two thousand three hundred dollars set up and [881.62] AndyRC: i said set up i didn't see the drone on its own cost that much i think every time that you need [887.78] Frank: a lot of the comments on on that video seem to miss the point of you were seeing you know when [893.62] Frank: you're saving you know scrimping and saving down to the the bare minimum that you could spend on a [898.9] Frank: budget quads what are you missing out on like how different is it if you go all out [904.9] AndyRC: yeah yeah um it's like it's like anything as well um i mean the copter fly is amazing it's perfect [912.66] AndyRC: but uh you could probably get something going for you know the whole lot i'm talking goggles [920.42] AndyRC: everything 250 dollars and i say that in the video but i don't think people get that far they're just [926.26] AndyRC: outraged by that point and are hammering the keyboard but it's all good man it's all [931.06] Ash: it's frustrating you put out a 27 minute video it's 27 minutes that one and it is really [935.62] Ash: frustrating as a content creator when you watch your view time and i think on average it's about [940.42] Ash: five or six minutes because people do just skip through and that's why so often you guys probably [945.46] Ash: find this you get questions that are answered in the video yeah yeah you're like watch the video [951.46] Ash: the answer's there please just watch it it's when we produced it but it does make me think now [956.5] Ash: you know i i used to always watch my videos back when i'd edited them before i rendered them [961.94] Ash: um and i stopped doing that but i'm doing it again now and actually what i do now is [966.42] Ash: i think do people really care anymore and i cut out big chunks idea to shorten the videos keep [972.26] Ash: it about 10 minutes it's a shame because we do what we do because we love doing it [977.7] Tony: so it's a shame to cut out content we don't cut out i love it i don't watch no oh my god though [984.26] Jack: how many times yes we get it righty tighty lefty lucy oh my god watching people do up [993.7] AndyRC: the thing that i find the thing that i find started i find i find myself cutting [999.78] AndyRC: cutting stuff out because you can hear the comments in your head and i'm like and i [1006.1] AndyRC: i wish i could ignore that but it's like i try i try not let people say you know like the amount [1013.06] AndyRC: of dislikes and on subs i get when i post a music video but i'm still going to post them [1018.5] Tony: you know i'm right but um yeah what percentage though Andy you got like 50 over 50,000 subs [1027.3] Tony: and um you're getting a couple of people going all what don't you like it still doesn't feel [1032.82] AndyRC: good like even this last video uh you know you can lose 80 subs and that can that that [1039.14] AndyRC: hurts man because you 80 subs are there not it's sort of important though Andy it's never like [1048.26] Ash: you might lose your gain like you know way over 100 so i don't think that's true these days man [1053.94] Ash: i don't think it's as easy on the other hand do you care about those people that you've lost [1059.22] Ash: because if you've lost them it's because they don't appreciate what you do so why would you [1063.06] Ash: want them subscribed anyway that's my point i don't know why do i try and please people that [1070.02] Ash: you that don't appreciate what you do that's my view now this next week we're at a 49 minute [1077.46] Curry: video which jack then phoned me and said what were you thinking it's like an idiot [1085.54] Jack: that that is oh my god man so i mean i found it funny but like i didn't put a disclaimer at the [1096.1] Curry: beginning if i'm not like doing something direct to camera and saying here's what i'm doing everybody [1102.5] Curry: then i just go into my own little world i'm like this is what you've got for 49 minutes i'm like [1108.42] Jack: i am like that no wonder sophie hates him no wonder i enjoy it i watch everyone's videos from [1117.38] Tony: start to finish it's probably because i haven't got a tv license but [1127.86] Jack: oh my word i just i i couldn't believe it i was like what the hell um frank you've got some [1136.66] Jack: actual structure to this show which we get on it 26 minutes in just before you do can i just say [1143.7] Ash: richard's my in the chat says keep videos for three minutes um any fine videos richard yeah [1151.54] Ash: what sort of videos are you watching richard if you only want three minutes work that's all it [1155.78] Curry: takes for him to you know that's what my wife says she says all your videos are too dark i'm [1160.1] Curry: not watching them they should be three minutes i was like i can't explain anything in three minutes [1165.3] Curry: what if it's complicated she's like make it simpler just once making my didn't let thrown out [1171.38] Jack: intro in less than three minutes hello what could you just say hey i'll see bye [1179.54] Jack: go again [1183.78] Tony: the one's richard smythe's watch he's done in three minutes and put it away [1188.82] Tony: who hasn't seen his penis poor old ash has seen it in 3d haven't you rich from your tiny [1197.7] Tony: whoop that's it you know that's the guy you the guy you just shouted out he's the meaner [1204.34] Ash: why it's all figuring now okay richard pretends to see that in my goggles ever again i tell you i'm [1211.06] Ash: just glad i didn't have the hto's at the time because it would have been really high resolution [1215.62] Jack: then he um a funny fact um somewhere in his house i've written with red marker pen tony is gay [1226.58] Jack: but i've also wrote on his boiler nancy takes out the ass is it still there [1236.98] Jack: oh it's only had my dbr going i wouldn't thank you darnone for my birthday present by the way [1242.98] Jack: i finally and got it it was at the post office and one question is this right hand or left hand [1250.42] AndyRC: polarized thank you the um the problem with what we do is you feel that you feel pressured to have [1259.22] AndyRC: covered absolutely everything and in order to do that you have to make a really long video yeah [1264.98] AndyRC: you you you could make three minute reviews but they were you just get a million comments saying [1271.22] AndyRC: i can remember um uh stew from uav futures he reviewed the uh the new latest amway um goggles [1280.9] AndyRC: the you know the very latest ones the expensive ones and uh his video is like uh 20 minutes long [1288.26] AndyRC: or something and he he just didn't mention the fact that they switched from four by three to [1294.5] AndyRC: 16 by nine that's all he didn't mention and there was a hundred comments you didn't even [1300.58] AndyRC: mention that they do 60 and it's like the video is already 20 minutes long you it's so it's so [1307.7] AndyRC: difficult to get everyone wants different things out of a videos and that's why we have to make [1312.5] AndyRC: them so long otherwise the three be three minutes long also youtube doesn't favor short videos [1318.74] AndyRC: because it can't put enough adverts on it and that generates the revenue well so what youtube [1324.42] AndyRC: wants is it wants long videos it wants daily videos and it doesn't really matter if they're [1330.42] AndyRC: any good or not either which is a shame yeah but surely retention is a factor retention as in [1339.46] Jack: people people yeah people watching it so they've got to be good in order for people to watch it [1344.5] Tony: but i'm not gonna have to get the adverts no content is this anymore i've got a few minutes [1349.86] AndyRC: and then just black screen for the next 17 if you if you just look uh if you look at your [1358.5] AndyRC: youtube statistics on any video you'll make the first day you post it is the only day that it [1364.82] AndyRC: gets views after that it you could you literally see a nosedive so it used to be the case when [1372.98] AndyRC: you know i was uploading six years ago you'd upload a video and the views the views would [1377.06] AndyRC: accumulate and stay the same but now this is whatever youtube does is it favors this new [1383.3] AndyRC: new content and now old stuff is gone you know it's but i think also and it's because um years [1390.42] Ash: ago there weren't lots of content reviewers so a new product would come out there'd be one or two [1394.98] Ash: reviews of it and they would be the main few reviews for you know people looking to buy it [1399.3] Ash: for the weeks after but now a product comes out and someone's reviewing it every single week so [1404.74] AndyRC: i think that's why i'm not just talking about i'm not just talking about products you know uh 10 [1411.46] AndyRC: years ago i put a music video on youtube and its views would just climb climb climb climb climb [1418.42] AndyRC: always and it would be a constant and and now uh well actually on that same channel at the time [1425.46] AndyRC: just it's almost overnight that stopped happening and it's something to do with the way that they [1431.46] AndyRC: list them like if you if you search for something now like say in the news it'll it'll come come [1439.54] AndyRC: up as the first thing like because it's recent it's happening now or you know if you type in [1444.9] AndyRC: casey nice that into youtube his first video that he just posted will come up not his last one not [1451.54] AndyRC: his most popular one not his most interesting one and so there's been a change in youtube uh [1458.42] AndyRC: for that which has meant that daily content because you know people are only going to watch [1464.34] AndyRC: the new stuff got to make new content every single day and the quality is is dropped because of that [1470.34] Ash: i think um youtube called me the other day which was weird are you sure well you sure it was youtube [1480.58] Jack: were you were you owed ppi were you receiving windows error messages or was it a nigerian prince [1488.74] Ash: is that racist it was some greek lady she was from youtube she had a google.com address and only [1495.14] Ash: youtube employees have google.com addresses but they talk you through your channel and they talk [1502.26] Ash: you through what you're doing wrong and what you can improve um and she told me that my views were [1507.7] Ash: primarily from suggested videos that's scary not from organic search or anything like that [1514.42] Ash: or subscribers but from my video being suggested after someone's watched someone else's i found [1520.42] Ash: that really depressing and i think that might be why andy as like you'll say my algorithm has [1524.74] Ash: changed so that your videos are not in search results these days but actually people are [1529.38] Ash: watching videos as a consequence of it being recommended that they watch it from elsewhere [1534.66] Curry: um it's interesting isn't it because we i mean like andy's got over 50,000 subscribers but your [1541.06] Curry: videos don't get 50,000 views which is kind of what you would expect as well as things coming [1545.94] Curry: in from other places and it's like i think about 10 of views are from subscribed people and the [1553.14] Curry: rest of it's just coming in from random and then they look at it so i'm not subscribing to this [1556.66] Curry: crap and then wonder if elsewhere but yeah the suggested views is really high compared to [1561.54] AndyRC: anything else weird yeah um it's and it's across the board as well um there are there are some [1568.58] AndyRC: exceptions but if we take pewdiepie for example 62 million uh subscribers but if you look at his [1576.34] AndyRC: his videos they get like just over a million a day so that's the equivalent of having 60,000 [1582.74] AndyRC: subscribers and getting 1,000 views a day he's got 60 million and getting a million views a day [1589.94] AndyRC: so it's like it's something not quite right there is the when it comes the subscriber numbers [1596.42] AndyRC: it's almost like it doesn't mean anything anymore it's something that is weird this some disconnect [1603.3] AndyRC: and uh i think it definitely got worse when uh google took over for sure but what what nothing [1609.7] AndyRC: you can do about that it needs it needs a platform to replace it i think that will happen i kind of [1616.42] AndyRC: feel like it is happening i think everyone's views are down even if you look at the big channels [1621.46] AndyRC: their views are down um i think people have like maybe you know youtube's becoming the myspace or [1629.3] AndyRC: maybe i'm just very negative in general friends are reunited remember that or does this mean that [1635.22] Curry: people are watching elsewhere they're just like oh this is i'm not bothering with any of this [1639.38] AndyRC: watching stuff but i'm getting it on facebook or what uh maybe facebook i know i certainly [1646.58] AndyRC: know facebook and instagram are more consumable because they're on the phone it's true i think [1653.06] Ash: facebook um will start to develop their platform now to steal youtube traffic i think they'll start [1658.42] Ash: offering content creators much more flexibility because their video platform is horrible [1662.74] Ash: at the moment but it's getting more and more popular because it's so easy so i think you're [1666.9] Ash: right youtube are going to lose its edge vimeo seems to have just been left behind a bit [1672.9] Jack: well like funny enough i got emails from vimeo a while back saying that um you know back in the [1680.1] Jack: day when you could just put any old music on anything and it was a bit more of a freer thing [1684.9] Jack: but yeah they've copyright striked a lot of stuff now on vimeo can i ask you a question ash it's [1690.98] Jack: been burning away at me since we started the show i'm not starting for a fool how comes we're not [1696.58] Ash: looking up your nostrils because there's my laptop what how what ah you bought a new camera no you [1708.98] Ash: probably can't see the reflection i'm on another computer here i knew nostril cam wasn't very [1716.74] Ash: popular so i'm using my work nostril cam should i talk about drones for a second go on because [1725.38] Ash: 35 minutes in i'm all i'm all droned out i am i thought it'd be nice treat you know um so just [1734.02] Ash: to say there is a a really nice initiative going on called drone around the world um you might have [1740.98] Ash: heard of ken harron he's an american guy um radio host i know wayne's been on his show before [1747.78] Ash: loves his super chat sounds an absolute fortune from it but a really nice guy um basically [1752.82] Ash: drawing around the world is a um a charity initiative that ken started together with kelly [1757.94] Ash: from ready set drone um they together bought a dji spark um they've signed it and it's going all [1765.78] Ash: around the world to lots of different content creators who are all going to sign this dji [1770.26] Ash: spark as well um donating to a charity called make a wish which is for kids with critical illnesses [1776.5] Ash: which i think is a really nice one and it's hard to find a charity that everybody sort of believes [1781.38] Ash: in generally but this one sounds like a really worthy cause um so it's going to be arriving with [1788.1] Ash: me i think in a few months or so um i'll post details in the chat about it but if anyone would [1794.18] Ash: like to be part of that or try to win this dji spark then feel free to enter that it's a bit [1800.82] Tony: small for how many signatures this is going to have isn't it what is that the biggest bloody [1808.74] Curry: they're sending it with a little pen with a really flying tip so yeah [1814.82] Frank: those are the little uh things that you drew on and then stick in the oven and it shrinks it down [1819.38] Ash: it's a really big case. Shrinky dinks. Yeah and inspired too would have been lovely but um yeah [1825.22] Ash: it would have been a bit of a the tax and the duty fees this thing's literally going to Australia [1830.02] Ash: Hong Kong i've got to send it to Argentina when i've um received it and by the way every time [1835.62] Ash: somebody receives it um one of the content creators we're going to fly it in our area in [1840.1] Ash: our country capture some lovely sights and then eventually render that into one big video showing [1844.82] Ash: droning around the world that's really good for the environment well done well yeah good old dhl [1854.66] Ash: but it's a nice idea i'll put details in the chat anyway if anyone wants to read more about it [1860.02] Ash: so that's enough of drones should we go back to what was it dildos we were talking about earlier [1866.34] Frank: well i saw another video that you've stuck up recently ash um [1870.18] Frank: recommending a christmas present um uh for for drone pilots and i thought that was a good [1878.34] Frank: recommendation i mean it solves the antenna set i was uh wondering because the other thing that's [1886.42] Frank: going to be i'm sure big in stockings again this year are the dji stuff for various people um you [1893.54] Frank: said a while ago we put up a video saying that mavic 2 everyone should not get it yet [1900.66] Ash: yeah and i think that's still the case well i mean i'm personally [1904.26] Ash: personally i think that's still the case um you could say any new product you shouldn't buy it for [1912.02] Ash: maybe three to six months but there are people out there who want to just go and have the latest [1916.26] Ash: and the greatest and then possibly suffer the consequences of a fly away or an issue [1921.3] Ash: and although it's based on the original mavic pro it's not the original mavic pro it's a brand new [1927.38] Ash: product essentially so my advice is don't buy one for three to six months already there's been [1931.94] Ash: a number of issues raised with the mavic um two the pro and the zoom um features of firmware that [1938.66] Ash: are missing such as precision landing so it lands meters away from where you took off at the moment [1944.5] Ash: so yeah i wouldn't buy one yet hasn't it got a problem with the gimbal falling apart because [1949.62] Ash: it's glued on or something that was a one-off issue but yeah it's quite old apparently the [1954.82] Ash: djo have been using this glue on every single one of their drones so far but yeah one of the [1958.5] Tony: gimbals silicone stuff the rubbery no i mean some glue all right lotus use glue on their cars [1968.58] Ash: they're still together yeah look at most of your our cars are mainstream cars are glued together [1973.86] Ash: door cards and things like that that was a one-off issue but the other big thing that's come out about [1978.18] Ash: the mavic pro with the one-inch camera sensor is that it's using line skipping so it's not actually [1983.54] Ash: giving you the results that you'd expect from a one-inch sensor so essentially you're buying [1988.34] Ash: an expensive drone with a big one-inch camera sensor and it's not using it so have a think [1994.18] Ash: you know i don't think anything's worth buying until it's settled down and plus they've got rid [1998.58] Ash: of that initial rush manufacturing bunch of products sat on a shelf somewhere and they can [2005.38] Curry: make some minor hardware revisions we won't need to will we because as you said the other day the [2011.06] Curry: microdrone four is coming out we're saved no comment people in the chat are asking us are we [2020.9] Tony: doing a drunken halloween night so uh well i suppose it's coming up soon isn't it jack oh yeah [2030.1] AndyRC: it's on the 25th what because the last one was so successful what the 25th also known as next week [2037.06] AndyRC: you had to take it down because it was so awful what we every other drunken anyway [2044.42] Tony: we we squished that one it got weird did it i can't remember i was like i never saw anything [2059.38] Jack: we had a penis pumpkin um told tony and we love him uh [2067.06] Tony: he's weird i was nice to him oh god no wonder it's not on it that is odd just swore well we've [2075.46] Tony: talked about dildos and stuff anyway so we're not gonna get any bloody money for this yeah [2080.18] Ash: best episodes are where they go offline and then people say they can't remember just doing the [2084.1] AndyRC: episode not naming any names that was one of them have you not got the super chat turned on today [2090.5] AndyRC: guys yeah it's on oh it's on yeah i think under fluke's just poor is he boring basically all of [2099.94] AndyRC: his wages get piled in for let's drone i just tried to send the super chat it says unfortunately [2106.42] Ash: it's not available yet in your region yeah must be must be that your area you have to send a [2113.7] Ash: some of your carpet instead sounds really dodgy i'm not sending you any of my carpets [2124.9] Ash: anyway yeah well microjone four maybe we should get verdon on the show do you think you'd come [2129.38] Curry: on because i did i did a review of the microjone three as you know and then he sent me a letter [2134.66] Curry: saying it was a little bit unfair and i said he wanted to discuss it and i said fair enough here's [2139.78] Curry: my skype details and then he didn't come back to me so would he would he come on i really want him [2145.22] Curry: to come on he's old robot wars i have to be honest i'm not i'm not completely convinced about the [2151.94] AndyRC: micro drone four looking at it tell me guys tell me about micro drone four because as far as i was [2158.18] AndyRC: concerned micro drone three wasn't finished was it hey there's a there's a uh post from richard [2165.94] AndyRC: harwood up yours jack five bucks thank you wasn't there meant to be a gimbal that was going to be [2172.98] AndyRC: like a dji gimbal for the micro drone three did that ever get released yeah and instead of it [2178.98] Ash: being a two axis mechanical gimbal as he promised to backers it was a one axis mechanical gimbal [2185.94] AndyRC: with eis for the um the roll axis which was which was standard definition anyways [2192.98] Curry: if you want to know what that looks like just attach your camera to a server and randomly [2196.74] Curry: move it around and that's that's what you've got oh wow i tell you what though i bet the revenue [2202.5] AndyRC: that we're seeing ain't coming on is it about the revenue that was made from i want to know where [2208.18] Curry: what what did he get something like three million dollars was he drunk wasn't he good we joke about [2215.46] Ash: this right but somehow he has managed to get micro drone three into i think um harrods um [2221.22] Ash: what's that big kid store in london families families as well argos and it's returning for [2227.54] Ash: about 150 quid and we're talking about a 30 pound banggood type quad here i'll never understand it [2234.18] AndyRC: i really won't the thing is though right i went um i went into like a gadget store um in the week [2242.26] AndyRC: and they had micro drone they had all of these toy drones they were just flying off the shelves [2248.74] AndyRC: they couldn't stock restock them quick quick you know the the the toy drone market um [2257.22] AndyRC: especially now at christmas time if if i had uh any sense that's that's what i'd start do [2263.78] AndyRC: doing is start reviewing those things although they sell themselves really in the in the shops [2269.94] AndyRC: because they're just there oh 50 quid yeah your dad'll like that that's it gone you know [2275.54] Ash: problem is andy people that buy that crap don't watch our reviews they just walk into a shop they've [2281.14] Ash: never seen a drone before they don't even have a spell drone and they just go to a shop buy it [2285.78] Ash: and then lose it and it flies away and they never see it again so they buy another one [2289.7] Tony: can i just buy under fluked has just sent a 10r thank you where's that blooming and drc challenge [2296.26] Tony: for jack and tony aye aye come on lad sort it out run over uh and under fluke is not ill [2304.42] Tony: he's ill at the moment so i hope you feel better saying mike okay better yeah i can't afford to [2309.46] AndyRC: get his prescription he's just sent us all the money pretty much andy you can send that thing [2316.02] AndyRC: um i've yeah i've had a bit of a challenging week it means leaving his house which is no [2322.02] AndyRC: excuse but uh yeah i'm gonna send it to these guys so apologies for the delay for these yeah [2329.14] Curry: i can't wait for my bench to get destroyed i was flying this one today here's a toy drone [2333.94] Curry: and it that little optical flow sensor actually worked it held its position yeah it was really [2339.06] Curry: weird i could walk around it now this is vi but spelt with uh thi it looks like a copy of the [2347.62] Ash: telo and coo drone as well the coo drone is a crowdfunded one have i got one it works personally [2354.26] Curry: well you know let me see if i can get close there is that's the logo thing really that one okay [2360.18] Ash: right google coo drone which was a crowdfunded drone which was a disaster and i think that is [2367.78] Ash: coo drone oh it's been repackaged you think yeah coo drone was an absolute scam it raised 1.3 million [2375.7] Ash: dollars didn't deliver to anybody which was crap um had gps 4k camera etc it looks exactly the [2383.14] Tony: same as that yeah we just had another load of cash flow come in thank you very much cash flow [2391.62] Tony: thank you still steal costs um tornado girl thank you very much emcee creations be it guys [2400.98] AndyRC: this time in my name oh man have you guys been watching tornado girls flying it's incredible [2409.3] AndyRC: man she's she's really really good oh really good all that backwards matty stunts flying [2416.66] Jack: i can't do that i was like wow not bad for a lesbian no time [2421.62] Jack: i'm hoping you'll love me for that [2430.42] Ash: by the way jax is something offensive and then sort of size swipes it to tony [2441.06] Jack: i'm like that guy who's being who's that like sicko isn't it poor tony's waiting at the tube [2445.78] Jack: and i pushed him into the the tube yeah there's quite a lot of that going on isn't there [2452.5] Frank: i've seen a couple of reports uh today of uh someone's been going around with a radio jammer [2459.62] Frank: and uh it's been causing a load of problems in a field uh well over at stocky park in west london [2467.38] Frank: um set something off and the load of quads went all in funny directions when people went [2475.62] Frank: hey so i would entirely recommend that everyone double checks that their fail safes are all set [2482.02] Frank: properly um there is this outside possibility that this is a slightly cleverer type of jammer that [2488.26] Frank: sniffs packets and then sends those back out which could sort of pretend to be a radio and doing [2494.18] Frank: whatever you've been doing recently um but it's much more likely that it's just blasting out weird [2501.22] Frank: stuff and just um their fail safe thing in ways that aren't very safe um yeah that's not fun uh [2509.62] Tony: keep an eye out scary uh it's scary that's not that's not nice doing stuff like that [2515.78] Ash: talking of lost drones um i reviewed finder 2 um last week which is the new version from vfly [2523.54] Ash: vyfly whatever you want to call it and it's really nice it's got a really really bright led on it now [2528.74] Ash: so if you lose your drone and it's night time it's got a light sensor so if you lose your drone [2533.46] Ash: you're trying to find it all day wait till it gets dark and then curry he's got shares in them with [2539.54] AndyRC: curry there we go he's now part owner of vyfly i do have a random reason he's even got him on his [2548.74] AndyRC: car he's got him on his kids everything it's really nice it's the same price as before as well [2556.18] Ash: and it's at night it's really super bright as well great product i haven't tested it out yet [2562.58] Frank: i'm slightly behind is it as much fun as that ornithopter oh that was really good fun there's [2570.18] Ash: a new version of that coming out as well and this new version is is an insect so it's even smaller [2574.98] Curry: can the new version fly because it didn't look like you had control to me [2579.62] Ash: it's kind of just releasing just releasing a bird with a dirty wing which went [2583.7] Ash: wee stuff but you know as i said it's we test fly stuff all the time and we can normally fly [2590.18] Ash: whatever we test fly as long as it's not utterly crap but that thing i test flew and i had to fly [2596.98] Ash: about five or six times before the review before i could actually get a feel for how it actually [2601.78] Ash: worked and i liked that rather than just it was a more of a challenge than what we normally do [2607.14] Jack: do you know what i mean i love the word ornithopter it sounds a bit [2613.94] Jack: no i wasn't going there but yeah i mean that you got you got a taste of the learning curve [2619.54] Jack: of like i really want to be good at this i can't wait to you know i can't wait to fly this thing [2625.38] Curry: i have some really awesome looking like proper ornithopters and they look amazing [2631.14] Curry: where you're seeing ones that really fly nicely but they are mechanically complex [2636.02] Curry: what's an ornith- ornithocopter it's a flying bird basically it's a flapping wing thing [2645.78] Ash: don't say northern flapping bird that's a very different thing [2651.46] Jack: me and dan optin really wanted to have seagull shaped um like planes you know that look like [2660.9] Jack: ornithopter seagulls and have an ability to have on a switch so we can shit on each other [2666.98] Jack: so we stand we stand on either side of the field and then have to like put on each other making [2674.58] Ash: you chips and stuff yeah yeah right and there's loads of seagulls there too many yeah that would [2680.98] Curry: be a good ldo challenge i think the seagulls shit edition two guys line up each end of the [2687.86] AndyRC: don't we spend enough time on aldio shitting on each other [2693.78] Ash: this is my job mentally loved loved the new potato version two um oh yeah potato [2702.1] Ash: came up last night it worked i was gutted when you pulled it to bits at the end though [2707.46] Ash: if you haven't watched the video you could have at least cooked it and ate it yeah [2715.46] Tony: oh my god yeah you should have ate it and then you could have liked this as the flying spud and [2720.26] Jack: i ate it we grew it we planted it and we're gonna go back there next year and see if it's had babies [2727.78] Curry: well done for putting the portal 2 reference in as well we like that and there was no cake [2734.42] Ash: could you please try and make a micro version using a crumpet a flying crumpet you'd have to [2739.86] Ash: cook it first how about pumpkin pumpkins it's a bit heavy aren't they big yeah follow it out [2749.78] AndyRC: that's gonna need an inspire to lift a pumpkin i reckon a micro drone four would transplant [2757.94] AndyRC: would transplant very easily into one of those mini potatoes you know [2761.86] Ash: can i invite him on can i invite him for next week the micro drone three barely lifts it on [2769.62] Tony: wait so i don't have a potato as well quite a lot of people in the chat kept asking [2776.34] Tony: a couple of chats up um for girls night too so i think we might be able to arrange that before [2782.5] Tony: christmas yes tony is going to do that i will arrange it before christmas girls night [2791.22] Jack: hashtag two thank you um we ash after the show will give you the list of free dates and you can [2799.46] Jack: pass them on to Vernon so next week hopefully we've got David on talking about his travels with [2807.54] Jack: his knife and quite curious yeah his bicopter are we dressing up all you all saying we're [2817.14] Tony: dressing up and then i dress up and then you'll come normal we're all dressing up as each other [2823.3] Tony: oh yeah oh we gotta pick out the hat who we're gonna be yeah this is gonna be funny i'm gonna [2831.22] Ash: so play up whoever i am didn't you two commit to dressing as girls on an episode some months ago [2837.54] Ash: i can't remember that what what time is it conveniently don't remember that girls night [2845.38] Ash: you said you were going to both dress as girls jack dressed up as a girl the other day to do [2849.7] Jack: his little song well no he's definitely a dude i'd have been bagged miniskirt and everything [2857.22] AndyRC: andy off he's not happy about that i'm fine about that it was the dog bumhole that i didn't like [2865.14] AndyRC: i was choosing all over your top the whole time the whole time i was thinking that when ash was [2871.46] AndyRC: talking about that spark in sent around and i thought if they sent it to jack it just rubbed [2877.22] Ash: them all on the back just right obscenities on it wouldn't it come back smelling dodgy as well [2884.98] AndyRC: probably like you're like your body i've never i tell you what i've never worn a top and got it [2891.78] AndyRC: to the point that jack had managed to get light off i really thought i could ward it for a week [2898.1] Jack: or something i was rubbing myself in it to get my scent and i wanted you to know who owns you [2906.26] AndyRC: i'm so sorry andy far too many curly hairs i was ripping them out these were very short [2917.06] AndyRC: curly hairs that were on this thing yeah can i just go just to talk about drones briefly [2924.5] Tony: again what are you guys working on this is not even cool do anything to do with it right [2930.02] Ash: it's let's turn out let's perv out it's no we've got to talk a little bit about drones let's make [2934.66] Ash: it at this point in minutes what have you guys have you guys had anything interesting that you [2938.82] AndyRC: reviewed at the moment uh well i'm now my next video and i'm gonna up the game and i'm gonna sell [2945.78] AndyRC: my car and see how much i can spend until you're gonna sell your car in your next video this is [2955.06] AndyRC: going to be interesting i got um i got it's it's it's whooping season so i got um i got i pressed [2963.86] AndyRC: because it's a shy camera i got the um the beat uh beat 65 something 65 this is the 65 version [2974.34] AndyRC: so i got that um and what else i'm not not a lot really um i've got uh a build that i need to do [2984.9] AndyRC: because uh furious fpv have released their 2.4 video system the diversity so uh i need to build [2995.38] AndyRC: something for that um yeah but not not a lot really i don't think um yeah it's all gone a [3004.02] AndyRC: bit quiet i think i think that i think the whole toy section is uh exploding at the moment because [3011.38] AndyRC: of christmas and stuff nice christmas isn't it yeah but i think what's i think what's happened [3015.38] AndyRC: with the five inch stuff is i think everyone's got their stuff now and it's flying it and i don't [3021.7] AndyRC: think you know i think we've got more products than people want to buy um so yeah i don't have [3030.26] AndyRC: uh i don't have that much coming through really uh yeah just just tiny whoop stuff which i'm fine [3037.94] AndyRC: with because it's getting cold out there in it and it's not just cold it's horrible rain first day i [3043.62] Tony: was actually cold today i went i come home from work and i was in the sun at work and it was [3048.58] Tony: okay it was warm went up the field to fly and i was like i was actually cold for the first [3054.82] Tony: time in about seven months it's bloody horrible it is you're northern andy you don't get cold [3062.74] AndyRC: it's not so much the cold isn't it we've had this this hurricane whatever we call them hurricanes [3069.06] AndyRC: now we're we're american hurricane alice or whatever it is the thing is all our houses are [3076.98] AndyRC: made of brick so the worst thing that happens is like a tree falls down no no didn't get knocked [3083.62] Tony: over yeah a bin glows over in america or their houses just get ruined because they're all [3090.5] Tony: filled out again what's it doesn't matter we said dildo hours ago we can swear now jack [3100.1] Ash: seeing that work addy brought back such good memories from the mini air show when we were all [3104.34] Ash: in that um oh yeah we've already talked about your great memories ash ah yeah apart from that [3111.22] Curry: incident with uh yeah the fun reminiscing for the penis in the um i'm gonna get rich to send me a [3118.34] Ash: penis shot this sounds like a me too moment what happened it was a bit i had my fat shark ses with [3125.22] Ash: a massive fov um flying my little tiny whoop around this lovely brilliant led interactive track [3132.18] Ash: crashed on the other side of the marquee and somebody who can which is spice yeah that's [3138.02] Ash: going to remain anonymous he don't care decided to flap out his manhood in front of my fbv camera [3146.1] Ash: last night my goggles on perhaps uh all 50 degrees fov uh a manhood perhaps that's the [3154.02] AndyRC: you ever felt perhaps he missed the uh meaning of what a tiny whoop was [3162.74] Ash: but that was we got it get your tiny whoops out is this worth a plug for the mini air show andy [3168.82] Frank: oh yeah definitely um we will be doing the same sort of thing again uh on friday and saturday [3175.94] Frank: night at mini air show uh the team mini air show event in 2019 which will be ma5

there's just be delirious people on the microphone [3210.5] Tony: i want ash to be the guy who presented everything next year yeah but no one could hear me last year [3216.02] Ash: i was chatting to myself for the whole time and not realizing the mic wasn't working [3220.82] Ash: we like it like that no thank you jack [3226.1] Ash: no it was an amazing show i can't i just hope it's a bit warmer
