We record the show live on [9.36] Curry: the Thursday night on youtube.com forward slash Let's Drone Out and our lovely patrons help with [14.32] Curry: the editing costs. These are Wacky Wes, Mikey Dread, Art Faulkner, Carlos Campos. Thank you. [59.28] Tony: Do you reckon that might be in or not? [66.0] Curry: Yeah, a strange noise, just as it started. Probably not because I didn't make one, [71.2] Tony: that's what anybody's thinking. Come on, Jack, dialogue to everyone. [75.92] Curry: Oh, his burp got in or not. It didn't. They would have mentioned it. [82.16] Jack: Yeah. Hello, and welcome to Let's Drone Out. Today, you're joined for another fantastic episode. [94.08] Tony: Is it ever fantastic? [96.16] Jack: No, it's not. The person we were hoping to get onto a guest is just ignoring us. [103.04] Jack: We are joined by my little Tony. Bonjour. [106.72] Jack: Kerry Kitten with a disclaimer. Everyone's favorite. [109.84] Curry: Hello. Any views expressed by any guests on the show, a personal [113.84] Curry: funny guest, may not reflect the views or how you saw any participant of the show. Thank you. [119.2] Tony: Thank you. I can't play this in the background. Why is it saying that? [126.08] Tony: What? Well, I normally talk to people on here and I have to pause it. It says can't play in the [132.24] Curry: background. And you start Frank. Good evening. [137.76] Curry: Just have another window on your computer. Sorry. I'm talking through the intro now. [145.92] Curry: Earlier today, somebody had to try and explain the concept of the cloud to Tony and everybody [151.68] Curry: volunteered not to do that because it was just too much effort. [155.6] Tony: I don't know what it is. Don't try to embarrass me on air. [160.88] Tony: I know what it is. The link that Andy Frank slash someone sent me didn't work. And I said, [168.56] Tony: I have to download something. And I'm like, why do I have to do that? Like, I don't know. [176.56] Tony: It's this big fluffy thing in the sky. [179.36] Frank: There is no such thing as a cloud. Only somebody else's server. [184.96] Jack: I know I'm bright until I fly. [191.04] Tony: The gauges. Why are we lighting fireworks? What's happened? [195.6] Frank: Winter blue donated. [201.28] Tony: I think they're talking about any RC in the chat. He's okay. He'll be back soon. [205.92] Tony: Just hold fire on the old boys. I'm going to time out. Some people just need a time out [212.24] Tony: again. And he's having one. He's in rehab. [221.84] Frank: And then Jack just is tunneled out of Tony's basement through the buried hookers and out [230.32] Curry: the other side. They're not buried here. That's the backlog to bury. [236.4] Frank: It's got a tunnel all the way back up north. So there's a long way to go. [246.32] Frank: Tony, I believe you've found a problem and a solution for the DJI stuff. [252.96] Frank: What a bag. [254.32] Tony: Yeah. How do you say this? Low and proud? Low pro? Low pro? Anyone? [261.28] Curry: I don't know. I know the name. It's expensive camera bags. [266.88] Tony: Yeah, but this one was 20 quid. Adventurer SH142. There's the label. [274.4] Curry: I saw your video pop up and I have to say, I haven't watched it because I just assumed [278.96] Curry: you'd pretty much got a Tesco's carrier bag and then saying, new solution for your [284.0] Curry: DJI goggles because you're just putting DJI in every video now because you're thinking that [289.04] Curry: sells. I'm going to get some drivers now. Another video pops up on the very same day. [294.96] Tony: Talking about what was it? [297.44] Tony: DJI or something? I'm sure that was mentioned. [300.32] Tony: Well, I'm a fanboy now. I'm a fanboy and I'm trying to beat Jack to a thousand. I've got [305.92] Tony: 40 left. I'm trying to pull everything out of the hat. If DJI link works, let's use it. [314.8] Frank: What was the problem that the bag solved, Tony? [318.16] Frank: That I could keep my antennas on at all times. [323.36] Frank: What antennas might those be, Tony? [325.92] Frank: The Menace ones. [329.92] Frank: Maybe a segue to suggest maybe what's happening in a couple of weeks' time. [335.04] Tony: We should have Menace back on in, is it two weeks? 30th? Do we say? [341.44] Tony: I think so. Menace is coming back on because I think there's a new [347.04] Tony: antenna coming out for woopy people. Greg's going to come in and talk about it from Menace RC. [355.76] Curry: It'd be useful to get Greg back on because I have a question for him. I flew today with something [361.2] Curry: and it goes some way of answering when people talk about antenna diversity and stuff. [369.68] Curry: I've heard it lots of times why people say, hey, why don't you just put two antennas [375.2] Curry: on the transmitting one, i.e. the VTX? Of course, you say that would be silly because that would [380.48] Curry: create a multiparthing. This is what I flew today. It's from AKK and they've basically [389.12] Curry: come out with something that surely would produce multiparthing. There is a right hand and a left [394.88] Curry: hand polarized antenna. That sounds bad to start with because surely you're already multiparthing. [403.28] Curry: I don't know if the idea is... It's no special concept on the goggle. [414.4] Curry: Anything else? So the idea is you go in such an environment where everything's bouncing [420.88] Curry: and then you get the bounce stuff from the left hand coming back at you. I don't know. [425.12] Curry: I tried it out today and it seemed worse than a regular one to me. It wasn't a great success. [430.96] Curry: Also, when making a 20 mil board with two antennas, if you have them at this angle, [438.32] Curry: the props hit them. It's the most weirdest thing ever. I don't know what they're trying to do. [447.36] Frank: That is really strange. I mean, I'm just... Because right hand plus left hand equals linear. [454.32] Frank: So I think, pretty sure. But does that mean that they're trying to be like, [461.2] Frank: well, if you've got 25 milliwatts on that one and 25 milliwatts on that one, [465.36] Frank: you're still technically within the 25 milliwatt. [468.96] Frank: So you can run 50? But you're actually running 50. [473.44] Curry: I'm unconvinced by it. So let's put it this way. [476.72] Tony: So you have a left hand on you and a right hand on your goggle then? [480.72] Curry: No. As far as I can tell, it's not designed to fly with any special setup on the goggle. [486.08] Curry: So I had the normal patch and a right hand polarized antenna on my goggles, as I normally would. [493.04] Curry: And as I was flying out, you could see it. You know where you get that pulsing? [498.96] Curry: You can see the blue in the clouds and you get this pulsing there. It's like, [503.28] Curry: this is already multiparthing and we're in the middle of an open field [507.04] Curry: because it's got two antennas that are both transmitting on opposite [510.8] Curry: things and still are being picked up. It's a weird thing. [516.24] Curry: I'd be interested to get Greg's point of view on that one because he would, [520.72] Curry: it seems like he'd have more expertise about what would happen. [524.72] Tony: Yeah, that seems a bit weird. Hi, Duncan Stewart from California. [529.52] Tony: Well, I'll shout you out because, you know, it's afternoon over there, I presume. [537.6] Tony: You're right there, Richard Hammond, the USA. [543.76] Tony: I do like the USA. Not at the moment, though. This is a bit gunny, gunny-fied at the moment, but [553.39] Curry: nothing wrong with a bit of Texas cowboy hat, Jack. [557.15] Curry: I should have been there this week on one of my many holidays, but it was cancelled, of course. [562.27] Tony: Boom. Of course. Oh, no, it's not worth going anywhere at the moment, is it? [566.99] Curry: I was meant to be in... I don't know if you know if they're letting us in yet, [569.15] Curry: are they? Are they still suspended flights to the US? [573.23] Curry: Don't know. I don't know. Everything's cancelled. Well, [575.15] Frank: not your carriage got back, didn't you, sir? [578.83] Curry: It got back because there was one in there. [581.71] Frank: Wait, yeah. [586.35] Jack: You're even wanting back. You just got returned. [590.99] Frank: Yeah, but I was meant to be in... I was meant to be in dry Ike in Germany with the battle [597.07] Frank: threaten guys last weekend. I was meant to be going to the EMF camp this weekend, this coming weekend. [605.79] Frank: None of these things are happening. There we go. [608.35] Jack: It sucks, man. Did I help when you were lying? [612.43] Frank: Did I measure the right thing for the Taranis? Yes, exactly. That was what I wanted to know. [616.83] Frank: I was asking Jack about the size of Taranis, which is for particular reasons that I will... [623.63] Jack: Thanks up to something, and he won't tell me what. [627.39] Frank: I'm up to many things. Many of them won't go anywhere and will get forgotten and left on them. [636.43] Frank: How's the plane going? [639.31] Frank: I have received... If people are in the Discord, there's a nice new hobby RC discount code in the [646.43] Frank: Discord because I've ordered some new ESCs and motors for my wing. I'm trying to hover in my room [653.15] Frank: because the ones I got in there at the moment that are from an old quad that I just ripped them off, [661.63] Frank: they were smelling like an old fan heater and then started to smell like sparklers. [671.31] Frank: And as much as I like the smell of super chat, I think maybe it's time for some new motors and ESCs. [677.31] Frank: So I've ordered them from hobby RC and got them on the floor down there. [682.11] Frank: So I will be fitting those at some point and getting another go on that with hopefully a bit more [689.87] Frank: thrust and hopefully hovering a bit longer. [695.15] Tony: I think I spoke to someone today who is friends with Numsco FBV. [700.43] Tony: Numsco FBV, are you the guy who just likes building and don't really fly much, [705.95] Tony: just loves building, building, building? So I spoke to Seb, one of your friends today. [711.87] Tony: I went out for a fly with someone today. Anyone been flying this week? [720.83] Curry: Me today. [722.03] Tony: Today? You went out? It was nice this afternoon once that grey weather went. [727.23] Curry: Yeah, funny enough, I got something because I went out when it was overcast and then it turned [732.19] Curry: really nice while I was there. I know, it was lovely. [735.63] Curry: Yeah, I was just doing some testing of stuff but I had a nice little fly, got a bunch of [740.75] Curry: batteries through, very sweaty in the process but it's nice just to get out and do stuff, isn't it? [746.91] Tony: Yeah, it was. [750.27] Frank: Jack got me up the other day and asking me lots of questions because he was preparing to fly. [755.07] Frank: I know, Jack got out on flu-ish. Tell us his story. [762.03] Jack: I'm going to tell it on the bonus podcast because it's not, yeah, it's not really [768.59] Jack: a podcast. Well, you know, it's like, I've got other stuff to talk about plus it's not really [779.95] Jack: fit for that average consumption. I like this from Mr Shady, we've all been there. [789.95] Frank: Yeah, I'm going to bring it out for the afternoon. [793.15] Frank: Taking it all out again when I see how much I'm spending. [796.83] Frank: Yes, yes. There's some bits I need for another project that I've got sitting on the back burner. [803.07] Frank: I have many back burners and very few front burners but some other parts that I've found [809.15] Frank: somewhere that actually sells them in the size that I need which is impossible and [817.39] Frank: then I've looked at the postage that these people charge and I'm like, [820.27] Frank: ah, I am going to end up ordering them because it's the only place I can find that do it in the [826.99] Frank: size but it's just annoying when it's that you're paying twice the amount of the parts just in [832.19] Jack: postage. I know that's really all sucky, innit? I'm going to order some UFL collectors. Guys, [839.31] Jack: I'm in so much pain it's starting to make me feel a bit dizzy. I probably am going to have to lie [846.67] Jack: down. I'm very sorry. Are you guys going to be all right? [851.07] Tony: Are we doing a bonus podcast after you've done that? [855.87] Jack: Maybe or next week or the week after. Who knows? How many Thursdays are in July? [864.45] Jack: Yeah, every day is a Thursday in July. [869.17] Jack: I can drop a bombshell just before I leave and that is I registered with Frank on the phone [876.45] Jack: and I hate it. I am now a qualified sex offender. Can you qualify in that? [889.97] Curry: That's going to be an awful sound clip, innit? Unqualified but I keep trying to take the exam. [897.57] Jack: Thanks, guys. [902.77] Jack: Provisional. [903.65] Jack: No, I've done the whole stupid test. I speedran the [914.13] Jack: FPV UK. [915.09] Frank: I used to hate you speedran. You spent an entire day on the phone to me complaining about everything [921.97] Frank: and then spent about 10 minutes doing it. [924.29] Jack: Less than 10 minutes. I think I've done it in three. [927.57] Curry: There you go. It's not like watching Mario 64 get done in 11 minutes, is it? [936.21] Jack: Oh, man. That's awesome. Then found out that you couldn't do the whole registration [944.45] Jack: bullshit, the paying the £9 thing on there for some reason. Then I had to go to the [951.49] Jack: official government website. [953.81] Tony: I haven't done any of that yet. I've baked the £9 quid but I haven't done the test [957.25] Tony: and I haven't put any... [958.93] Jack: You've got to do the test in order to pay for it, haven't you? [962.45] Jack: You must have done the online test. [963.97] Frank: The new test is for the flyer ID and the £9 is for the operator ID. It is perfectly [969.81] Frank: possible to pay the £9 without doing the online test. [973.89] Tony: Jack, when are you going to engrave LDO into my arm? [976.85] Jack: I'm not doing that. Oh, God. [980.37] Tony: Why not? [982.05] Jack: But Sheldon made the disk for me and I've put a new camera in it and I've ordered a new GPS [990.69] Jack: module because it's one of the original old ones that I got given from Radio C. He was like, [998.93] Jack: can you make this work? No, he honestly did give it to me instead of just stealing it like [1005.41] Jack: everything else. That was going to get made. [1012.93] Jack: It says that the prop was the wrong way around and I buried the ESC in the back of it. [1017.81] Jack: That's the sonic AR wing. I had to do the old BL heli when I got back. [1024.53] Jack: So I think that's good to go. I've done the whole you who pour bead along it to join the [1032.93] Jack: Elavon's back and I phoned up the print shop to get some more stickers cut. [1044.48] Tony: If you want to go lay down, Jack, go lay down. [1046.64] Jack: Down before you forced to lay down on the floor. [1051.28] Jack: What happened to Radio C? Kind of got bad reputation, ran into the ground and that was it. [1058.72] Tony: I think it was when Trappy wanted to set his kids and house on fire. [1063.84] Curry: It all went downhill from there, didn't it? Yeah, pretty much. [1072.24] Jack: I had left a long time ago. [1076.4] Tony: It was selling loads of dodgy gear though, wasn't it? Boards weren't real. [1082.24] Jack: Tried to fire me for being friendly with the customers who walk in. [1093.52] Jack: That's just normal for you, isn't it? No. What was there? What was Neil's thing? Shop? [1102.56] Jack: I drone. Yeah, pretty much. Conflict of interest. Neil was lovely. [1110.96] Jack: But I'm still friends with Fab and I love Neil to bits. But yeah, I've still got one of the [1119.6] Jack: Dodgy E-Max motors in a drawer somewhere, pretty much. If you want to know who leaked that [1127.2] Jack: information and leaked how to spot a fake cloned Rev5, you may have noticed that it all got leaked [1137.6] Jack: on old Oscar Lang's website. He's just down the road from there, coincidence. He was trying to [1146.64] Jack: help the hobby. All right, guys, I'll see you in a bit. Ping me. [1155.44] Tony: Are you going to be able to see us out or should we just let you go? [1158.48] Jack: Yeah, man. I'm going to come back. I'm not dying. I'm just not very well. [1162.96] Tony: Are you going to have your afternoon nap, you old bastard? [1167.44] Jack: Trouble is I haven't had any meds. I had to go to the hospital for a blood test and [1171.92] Jack: it was like fucking ground zero down there. Do not go to the hospital unless you cut your [1176.96] Jack: dick off. You're on fire or you're literally dying. They just don't want you there. [1185.28] Tony: Which one of them did you go for? [1192.32] Jack: Well, I had a cold shower before the show in hopes it made me feel better. But [1197.36] Jack: yeah, I've pretty much lost my penis from that. [1202.64] Tony: Can I have a lie down? We're talking crap. [1208.96] Tony: No, man. [1211.76] Curry: We're running people. They're dropping like flies. [1215.2] Tony: Does anyone in a chat want to come on? Anyone? Who wants to come on from the chat? [1221.28] Curry: Did we get any more response from Tony's? [1224.96] Tony: No, literally no one. Everyone's too scared to put their face on [1231.12] Curry: on here. No, I don't want to be associated with this. I can see that. [1236.08] Tony: I can see why, to be honest. I can see why. But [1243.68] Curry: did you get a chance? We talked last week while you were talking about your 50 megabit per second [1248.72] Curry: update, which you said was really good. But there are only two channels. But in the US, [1252.16] Curry: there's three channels. Did you have a chance for somebody to fly analog at the same time? [1256.48] Tony: No, I'm afraid I didn't. But I know, apparently, I haven't done it yet. But if you reset the Googles, [1263.44] Tony: you get three channels and then a public. So after you do what I've done, you've got to reset, [1270.48] Tony: and then you get three and then a public. Well, I flew, me and Joker flew both on 50 each. [1276.72] Tony: And it was just really good. How much grass could you see? [1282.96] Tony: Amazing, the detail. The best thing is landing now. Just land and then little blades of grass. [1288.64] Tony: You can see individual blades. It's incredible. I love it. It's so good. [1294.4] Frank: Tony doesn't really want to fly drones. He just wants to have a microscope in the grass. [1301.04] Curry: I think what he wants to do is just put a camera in the grass and just sit there and look at it. [1306.4] Curry: Well, you can put your face down in the grass as well. That's another way of looking at it. [1314.48] Tony: Well, it's like FPV. My lawn needs mowing and me and Frank had a little combo about how I should [1321.84] Frank: mow the lawn. You need to put the A unit or your ex class just on on your lawnmower and run that [1330.64] Tony: round. I may mow the lawn wearing goggles. If you want to see that, like and subscribe [1340.32] Tony: because I need to beat Jack. What's the name of your YouTube channel again? [1348.16] Tony: The Tonestar one, I think. Have a look. [1355.44] Frank: That's why I thought I would ask because I'm never entirely sure. I know it's not just Tonestar. [1360.4] Tony: That's the important thing. I'm going to change it. It's the Tonestar one FPV. [1366.56] Tony: It's the Tonestar one. It's a good idea to change it just when you're saying subscribe to me. [1372.08] Tony: Yes, I've just written a different name. I don't know. I've got 40 subs to 1000 and I've won the [1382.96] Curry: challenge. I did get Jack's voiceover last night. I may start editing the video. [1393.84] Curry: We may well go with, you won't believe what this DJI Mavic can do. [1399.76] Tony: Of course, it has DJI in the title. I've done that though. I've found the freestyle [1408.24] Tony: button on DJI Anthem or something like that. That got like five, six hundred hits. [1415.76] Tony: Even though it was like complete lies. [1419.28] Frank: That seems to be the immutable law of Tony and Jack's battle of YouTube. If they put out a video [1428.16] Frank: that doesn't have DJI in the title, they lose subs. If they put out a video with DJI in the [1433.44] Frank: title, they gain subs. That's the rule. Literally what happens. [1442.72] Frank: Here's what it is. I'm trying. [1446.88] Frank: You're not tempted to have along with your FPV MTB DJI. What is it, EPV for electrical [1456.56] Frank: personal vehicle? What's the three-letter acronym for your e-scooter? [1462.16] Frank: I don't know. Scoot. [1467.68] Tony: I do like scooting. It's good. But it's got hard tyres. I chose the wrong one really. [1475.44] Tony: It was a cheap one and now I think I wish I'd bought a bit more expensive one with a pneumatic [1480.16] Tony: tyres rather than the hard tyres. I mean, I won't ever get a punch. [1483.76] Tony: Sorry, what was that word? [1486.4] Tony: Pen-u-matic. [1487.12] Tony: Is it pneumatic? [1491.68] Curry: Pneumatic, yeah. [1492.48] Curry: The P is silent. [1495.28] Tony: Well, I'm dyslexic, so I say it as it is. [1499.04] Tony: What, are you really saying pneumatic? [1502.4] Frank: Pneumatic, yeah. [1505.52] Tony: Pneumatic, don't I? [1506.48] Curry: They spelled pterodactyl, if you thought that was weird. [1510.48] Tony: I've never ever seen one, spelt it, wrote it down, looked it and put it in. [1517.28] Curry: Not many people have seen one for the last 40 million years or so, [1519.92] Curry: but we're getting slightly off topic. [1521.84] Tony: Am I real, though? [1523.04] Curry: Oh, gosh. [1527.92] Tony: Oh, young earth. [1530.8] Curry: Young earth theory is going to be worse than the flat earth theory. [1533.04] Tony: Look, Wyn Davis says, Tony, if you don't mind coming on. Yeah, let's get Wyn on. [1539.44] Tony: Can we send Wyn? [1543.28] Tony: The only way you can come on, you get three strikes and you're out. [1547.76] Tony: So be careful what you say, and you have to wear your LDO top. [1553.92] Tony: I don't care if it's wet in the wash, dirty or smelly, you have to put it on. [1561.62] Tony: How can we send Wyn the... [1563.78] Tony: I'm just getting there. [1565.38] Tony: So if you can... [1565.94] Tony: It's coming your way, but in the LDO top, I'm pneumatic. [1572.45] Tony: So you don't say E. [1576.69] Tony: English is stupid. [1579.01] Tony: Literally stupid. [1581.65] Tony: Stupid. [1582.37] Curry: It's good that you can just present new words to Tony. [1584.61] Curry: Hey, you never guess how they spell aardvark. [1586.69] Curry: That's another good one for you. [1589.41] Tony: I-R-D-V. [1591.41] Tony: No, you missed. [1593.41] Frank: You went wrong very quickly. [1595.73] Tony: Stupid, isn't it? I hate English. [1601.57] Tony: Dumskull said he would come on, but he's not got any headphones or an LDO t-shirt. [1605.97] Tony: Well... [1607.17] Tony: Well... [1607.97] Curry: You didn't qualify. [1609.01] Tony: Well, you didn't qualify. You're out straight away, numbskull, I'm afraid. [1613.65] Tony: If you go to our website, you can order a t-shirt. [1616.53] Tony: They're very cheap, aren't they? [1619.49] Tony: How much can you get a t-shirt for? [1621.65] Tony: Curricun? [1623.25] Tony: I can't remember. [1624.93] Tony: How much? [1626.21] Tony: I don't know. [1627.73] Tony: Not much over £20 delivered, I think. [1630.85] Curry: That is a great word. [1632.61] Curry: RobinFPV has just come up with Flem is good for playing Hangman with, which I think is... [1638.05] Tony: Oh my God, is that Hangspell Flem? [1641.49] Tony: Yeah, no Fs. [1642.45] Tony: I'm just making you laugh. [1643.41] Tony: Good to believe it.

[1673.09] Tony: You literally just lobbed that on the wrong way, didn't you? [1676.77] Wynne: Yeah, well, you said wear it. [1678.05] Wynne: You didn't say which way. [1679.01] Tony: I thought you could wear it anyway, mate. [1683.01] Tony: Inbuilt face. [1684.21] Tony: That's it. [1684.69] Tony: That's it. [1685.81] Tony: You can go shot in there. [1686.85] Curry: The Corona edition. [1688.61] Tony: Well, he don't charge anymore, though. [1691.01] Frank: He can do the eye holes cut into the hood. [1695.17] Frank: Just wear it backwards and there you go. [1697.57] Curry: Let it become the Ku Klux Klan edition. [1699.33] Curry: I don't think we can have that one. [1701.73] Frank: Okay.

[1714.21] Tony: Do all know he's got no clothing, [1715.97] Tony: but he said he could arrange something. [1717.97] Tony: Nothing to wear. [1719.09] Curry: Naked LDO. [1720.37] Curry: It's like A4, just LDO written in marker pen. [1724.53] Tony: LDO masks. [1726.69] Tony: That could work. [1727.73] Tony: We could do that. [1728.69] Tony: There were some mini, actually. [1729.81] Curry: That's a new thing. [1731.01] Curry: People are doing masks. [1735.57] Frank: It is on that popular online shop platform that we're using for the shop. [1741.49] Frank: We could have it. [1743.01] Curry: Should we just add it in? [1744.29] Curry: I can't remember. [1745.97] Frank: Do it while we're live. [1748.69] Frank: Yeah, we'll work that one out later. [1751.09] Curry: So, working with you to win. [1752.61] Curry: How's it going? [1754.29] Wynne: Oh, not too bad. [1756.45] Wynne: Even better last week because I was able to get out, [1758.93] Wynne: do a bit of flying at the castle. [1762.45] Wynne: We had a fair few pilots that joined us. [1764.85] Wynne: Some from Macclesfield, Chester way. [1767.41] Wynne: And yeah, it was a lovely day. [1769.57] Wynne: It was really nice. [1772.13] Wynne: And fair play the castle. [1773.33] Wynne: They've done a lot of work there. [1776.53] Wynne: They've maintained a lot of the areas. [1778.61] Wynne: And they've cut the grass, which is nice, [1780.05] Wynne: so I could finally find me a quad when I crashed it. [1784.13] Wynne: And I did, several times. [1785.97] Wynne: But I thought I was going to be absolutely pants at flying [1790.45] Wynne: because I haven't been flying, [1791.73] Wynne: apart from a tiny bit throughout the window, [1794.69] Wynne: for quite some time. [1796.61] Wynne: I did quite well. [1797.33] Wynne: So I was quite impressed with myself. [1798.77] Wynne: And I got some good times going round the track. [1803.89] Frank: So, Tony, can you spell the name? [1805.97] Frank: The name of the castle for us. [1807.57] Tony: No, my God. [1821.49] Tony: I was talking to your friend today. [1823.65] Tony: You come up and found me when. [1827.49] Tony: Which one's that one? [1830.13] Tony: Oh, Seb, yeah. [1831.25] Tony: He came to see you. [1832.85] Tony: He come and see me. [1833.89] Tony: Come on out and fly with me in my flying field. [1837.57] Wynne: Brilliant. [1838.61] Wynne: Yeah, he's brilliant. [1840.53] Wynne: I think he kind of borders more on the filming side. [1845.97] Wynne: So he likes to actually have that smooth motion, [1849.41] Wynne: everything like that. [1849.97] Wynne: Although, to be honest with you, [1851.17] Wynne: he's a very good racer as well. [1853.65] Wynne: It can handle his quads quite well. [1856.21] Wynne: But I don't know if anyone's ever seen [1858.61] Wynne: any of his footage on YouTube, [1860.21] Wynne: but it's definitely worth watching, [1861.65] Wynne: just to see what he does. [1862.93] Tony: Yeah, I asked him just before he went, [1864.93] Tony: and I subscribed to you. [1866.05] Tony: What's your channel? [1866.85] Tony: And I was already subscribed. [1868.29] Tony: So, I'll have a proper look later. [1872.13] Tony: Now, it's nice to put a face to the channel. [1878.77] Tony: Yeah. [1879.41] Tony: We had a long chat. [1880.21] Tony: We were chatting for about two hours in the field. [1883.01] Wynne: It was good. [1883.57] Wynne: Well, he knows his stuff as well. [1885.65] Wynne: You know, he's really into it, [1888.37] Wynne: and he's helped me out a lot, [1889.89] Wynne: especially with me seven inch. [1891.57] Wynne: Me seven inch was rattling like anything, [1893.65] Wynne: and I couldn't get it to... [1894.93] Tony: Oh, no. [1895.57] Tony: I fell in love with him seven inch. [1897.25] Tony: I was like, I want a long range, you know? [1899.01] Tony: And he was like... [1899.57] Tony: Oh, yeah. [1900.37] Tony: And he showed me his, and I was like, [1901.81] Tony: yes, I want to get that. [1904.05] Tony: I can't remember. [1904.93] Tony: Big range quad. [1906.53] Tony: 15, 20 minutes, he said. [1907.89] Tony: 15, 20 minutes, yeah. [1909.97] Tony: Yeah, it's very good flight time on that. [1912.37] Wynne: That's kind of thing I want to do, Nick. [1917.01] Wynne: Sorry. [1918.29] Curry: Sorry, when I was just saying, [1919.57] Curry: I heard it mentioned that EMU flight [1921.33] Curry: is good for longer quads, [1922.85] Curry: whereas beta flight was very much [1924.93] Curry: based around five inch, five inch, five inch. [1927.57] Curry: So is he running anything special on it, [1930.05] Curry: or is it just nice to tune to your flight quad? [1932.13] Tony: He'd say he's put EMU flight on it now. [1937.17] Tony: Oh, he has, right. [1938.29] Tony: Yeah, so he's going to have a go. [1940.05] Tony: I don't know if he's changed it or whatever, [1941.65] Tony: but he said he put EMU flight on it, [1944.13] Tony: and he's going to have a go with that. [1947.09] Wynne: I'll have to ask him on that. [1949.01] Wynne: Yeah, and he's flown this seven inch as well indoors. [1953.17] Wynne: Yeah, there's a place called the Boneyard, [1956.37] Wynne: and it's like a skateboard, indoor skateboard park. [1960.21] Wynne: But I found it ropey just flying a five inch in there, [1964.13] Wynne: because I was flying so low [1965.65] Wynne: and trying to get away from the roof. [1968.05] Wynne: There was bits of string and things like that [1970.13] Wynne: hanging from the roof, [1970.85] Wynne: so he easily got caught up in seconds. [1973.41] Wynne: Plus, when I throttled up, I hit the roof twice. [1976.29] Wynne: But he's got this seven inch, [1977.65] Wynne: and he was flying it indoors, [1979.81] Wynne: and what he actually did was actually strap a load of LEDs. [1985.33] Wynne: He's done it, so he's a lighting man, [1987.89] Wynne: and his fellow colleague, [1989.65] Wynne: he was flying like a cine boop, [1992.37] Wynne: and he was filming these guys [1994.77] Wynne: actually doing skateboard tricks in the Boneyard. [1997.41] Wynne: It was actually fantastic what they did, [1999.17] Wynne: and it was all blacked out, [2001.81] Wynne: completely blacked out, [2002.85] Wynne: and he was flying this in the dark [2004.29] Wynne: with this straight big strip light on it. [2006.77] Wynne: So yeah, he's a brilliant pilot for doing that. [2010.29] Tony: He's only been doing it a couple of years as well, [2012.21] Tony: he said. [2012.69] Tony: And I think he said he might hang around [2016.53] Tony: and go mountain biking, [2017.65] Tony: because he's quite an avid mountain biker as well. [2020.29] Tony: He's been doing that. [2020.93] Tony: He is, he is. [2022.85] Tony: But I could have gone out with him, [2024.61] Tony: but I'm actually getting one of my brake. [2028.37] Tony: My front brake's not working, it's leaked. [2031.01] Tony: So I'm getting that fixed tomorrow. [2033.25] Tony: I don't know if he's going to hang around or not, [2035.17] Tony: but if he is, I'm going to take him to Peas Lake [2037.33] Tony: and the Surrey Hills tomorrow evening. [2040.77] Wynne: Oh, brilliant. [2041.25] Wynne: What's his YouTube? [2041.81] Wynne: Yeah, you'll like that. [2043.73] Wynne: His YouTube is... [2045.97] Wynne: You'll get it. [2047.57] Tony: Give me a look because I searched for it [2049.17] Tony: just a minute ago. [2053.41] Tony: FPV underscore SE. [2058.53] Tony: That's it. [2059.25] Tony: He's got 139 subscribers, 29 videos. [2063.81] Wynne: He's definitely worth more. [2064.93] Wynne: I know that he's done some serious footage. [2069.49] Wynne: And one of the locations which I like going to with him [2076.45] Wynne: is on top of, well, Conway Mountain. [2080.37] Wynne: And there's like a kind of disused old quarry there [2083.41] Wynne: where they used to mine granite and stuff like that. [2086.21] Wynne: Yeah, it's fantastic. [2087.17] Wynne: I've been flying with him around there [2089.17] Wynne: and it's kind of relentless [2090.21] Wynne: because if you get it wrong, [2091.09] Wynne: you just end up with a load of bag of bolts [2093.01] Wynne: at the end of it. [2095.09] Wynne: He's brilliant. [2095.73] Wynne: He's absolutely brilliant. [2096.93] Wynne: Good fun to fly with. [2098.93] Wynne: That was just backwards, I think. [2103.33] Tony: Yeah, he was quite informative. [2106.53] Tony: Everything he talked about was... [2108.37] Tony: Well, he knew his stuff. [2109.41] Tony: He knew his stuff about mountain biking. [2113.01] Tony: Yeah, it was a nice chat. [2114.37] Tony: It was good to meet him. [2117.09] Wynne: Yeah, yeah. [2118.85] Wynne: That was a lot of fun. [2120.21] Wynne: The castle, the only thing that was playing up [2122.13] Wynne: is my timer is normal [2123.57] Wynne: because it hadn't been used for so long. [2125.49] Wynne: I've got a rotor hazard, if anyone knows what. [2128.45] Wynne: It's like the Delta 5, [2130.61] Wynne: but it's the rotor hazard version of it. [2132.61] Wynne: It's got a software a little bit different. [2135.89] Wynne: And yeah, it was playing around. [2139.81] Wynne: So it wasn't quite timing, [2142.37] Wynne: but then again, it could have been me and my course [2144.13] Wynne: because I decided to tighten it up a bit. [2146.37] Wynne: So yeah, I had a bit of fun flying around there. [2150.29] Tony: What seven inch have you gone? [2152.05] Tony: What seven inch have you gone for out of interest? [2155.65] Wynne: iFlight, I think the frame is. [2157.49] Wynne: I'll just try and get it without actually strangling myself. [2161.49] UNKNOWN: There we go. [2165.73] Wynne: So there you go. [2168.05] Wynne: It's a, I think it's an iFlight, that one. [2171.65] Tony: What kind of emote are you running? [2173.65] Tony: And what battery? [2176.53] Tony: Are you, anything? [2177.65] Tony: I can't hear you. [2179.73] Tony: Well done. [2180.53] Tony: Sorry, I'll come back to you in a minute. [2183.33] Tony: That's a good feeling. [2184.13] Wynne: There we go. [2184.77] Tony: I'll mute him. [2187.25] Wynne: You muted me? [2188.13] Wynne: That's fine. [2188.85] Tony: No, no, no. [2189.57] Tony: We are muted. [2190.61] Tony: Lurgy, because he sounds horrific. [2193.41] Wynne: But it's playing very well. [2195.41] Wynne: It don't look as bad. [2198.61] Tony: Well, I'm like it. [2200.61] Lurgy: Even though he's wearing it. [2204.21] Tony: I'm loving the, I'm loving that. [2206.61] Tony: You've got away with that, Lurgy. [2208.13] Frank: Well done. [2211.73] Frank: Is that the sign we have? [2212.69] Frank: Quickly sketched up. [2213.97] Frank: The mini air show. [2215.49] Lurgy: It is indeed. [2216.45] Lurgy: Yes. [2217.09] Lurgy: That's Jack's artwork. [2219.33] Frank: Somebody kept it. [2220.37] Tony: Oh my God. [2222.53] Lurgy: I'll have it one day. [2223.41] Lurgy: It's a useful piece of foam board. [2226.77] Tony: You can never cut that up. [2228.69] Tony: There's a bit of history there. [2230.53] Lurgy: I was going to plan on making something [2232.85] Lurgy: to leave it complete. [2234.21] Lurgy: So it's on there as well. [2237.09] Tony: Cool. [2237.89] Tony: We'll let you have that, Lurgy. [2239.57] Tony: We'll let you have that. [2241.65] Tony: Sorry. [2242.21] Tony: We interrupted you when you were telling us [2246.69] Tony: what KV the motors were on the seven inch and what? [2250.45] Wynne: They're race stars. [2251.65] Wynne: I can't remember what the KV are, but the KV is. [2254.45] Wynne: But yeah, it is pretty low on this. [2259.33] Wynne: But they're reading the number 2508S. [2263.97] Wynne: That means anything? [2267.73] Tony: No KV there. [2268.85] Wynne: Like 1,500 low, that 1,200. [2272.45] Wynne: I think they're about 1,200 or 1,300. [2275.57] Wynne: I remember rightly. [2276.61] Wynne: But they're pretty low. [2278.85] Wynne: Didn't need anything really immense for one of these. [2281.97] Wynne: No, no, no, of course not. [2283.09] Tony: You just know. [2284.69] Wynne: And with that KV. [2287.49] Wynne: You can still do stunts with it if you really want to. [2291.25] Wynne: But I'm not doing what Seb's done. [2293.65] Wynne: You know, obviously you've got a different battery. [2295.41] Wynne: I'm just using a standard LiPo on it. [2298.13] Wynne: But eventually I might do that. [2301.25] Wynne: I might put a different battery on it to have a longer flight time. [2305.65] Wynne: But it's got GPS on it. [2307.49] Wynne: A little GPS module there. [2309.33] Tony: Yeah. [2311.01] Tony: So it should come back home if you get lost or? [2314.37] Wynne: Yeah, kind of. [2315.81] Wynne: Probably more than likely won't come back on. [2317.97] Wynne: But at least I'll be able to find it. [2320.13] Curry: Comes in that general direction. [2322.13] Curry: It will crash somewhere near you. [2323.73] Curry: That's the main thing. [2325.41] Wynne: That's about it, yeah. [2326.53] Wynne: Because it has beta flight, so it will be a crash. [2329.17] Wynne: It won't be a landing. [2332.13] Curry: Wow. [2332.61] Curry: You know, landing crash if it hits the ground. [2336.61] Wynne: Yeah. [2338.21] Lurgy: What have you been up to? [2341.25] Lurgy: Yeah, similar plan with some GPS and wings and INAV and some of that sort of stuff. [2349.57] Lurgy: Yeah, I tried INAV before and got put off and never really got it to fly. [2355.33] Lurgy: But I tried it. [2356.29] Lurgy: I thought it'd be better this time on an actual plane that I know that flies already. [2362.45] Lurgy: Trying to build something myself and put an INAV in it. [2364.77] Lurgy: And, you know, yeah. [2367.09] Lurgy: So I've had a lot more luck this time. [2369.97] Lurgy: Had a bit of a crash, but that was due to me trying to re-weight the plane and [2376.21] Lurgy: balancing in the wrong place and things. [2377.97] Frank: But this time around isn't merely a flying wing, is it? [2383.25] Frank: It's quite... [2384.05] Lurgy: No, no, I went a bit overboard, really. [2386.77] Lurgy: It was just on eBay and it was a collection only, so no one was bidding on it. [2393.25] Lurgy: But it was just down the road from me. [2395.81] Lurgy: So it was 150 quid and I thought, oh, I'm going to have to have a go for it. [2400.85] Lurgy: Came with a five-cell 4000. [2406.45] Lurgy: It's not as fast as I was hoping it was going to be, though. [2410.13] Curry: What is it? [2411.17] Lurgy: It's an LXF16 scale jet amp. [2419.25] Tony: Have you got any headphones while you're there? [2425.15] Tony: Whoa. [2427.47] Curry: It's great, too. [2428.27] Curry: So is that a big EDF motor in there, then? [2430.19] Lurgy: Yeah, certainly a little EDF. [2436.53] Lurgy: No, sorry, I haven't got any headphones. [2438.21] Lurgy: I can turn it down a bit. [2442.06] Lurgy: Is that any better? [2443.58] Tony: Just getting a little bit of feedback from your nettle. [2445.9] Lurgy: Yeah, no, sorry, I didn't have the headphones. [2448.06] Lurgy: Yeah, it's a 70mm EDF from what I can work out. [2453.02] Lurgy: The guy is, well, while I work out, it's a 4S motor running on 5S, [2457.5] Lurgy: but the guy has said, oh, that's the way to do it, that's how it's... [2461.34] Lurgy: Yeah, I bought it all pretty much for you. [2464.06] Tony: Is that an eNex 2600KV on 5S? [2468.22] Tony: That was the thing. [2470.22] Tony: It's... [2472.7] Tony: It's what I used to do on my 5S. [2475.66] Lurgy: I'm not sure, no, I have got another motor and things for it. [2482.06] Lurgy: But no, that old boy, and he said it was a bit too much for him. [2485.74] Lurgy: And, you know, I thought, oh, yeah, I'm sure I can crash that, all right. [2491.34] Lurgy: Yeah, it had a little lemon RX flight stabilizer in it. [2494.86] Lurgy: So I put... [2496.62] Lurgy: I went from a crossfire as well and got the full crossfire module. [2499.5] Lurgy: So I'm having a lot of fun going a bit further than that as well, basically. [2503.34] Lurgy: And, yeah, put crossfire in one of my quads and in the EDF jet. [2511.1] Lurgy: Yeah, just lots of fun, just cruising around in the wing as well, really. [2517.18] Lurgy: Big Martin's wing that I built. [2521.82] Lurgy: That's had lots of hours on it now. [2523.5] Lurgy: It just flies so lovely. [2524.62] Lurgy: I can slow it right down and do cruising around, [2527.58] Lurgy: or I can go flat out and use a battery in two minutes. [2531.26] Lurgy: It's so nice, yeah. [2533.1] Lurgy: So that might even get a crossfire in it as well and go a bit further with that. [2538.22] Tony: Can you stay completely still while I'm talking? [2547.18] Tony: You must have some metal leg or something in your brain. [2552.22] Lurgy: Every time you move, all the time. [2556.7] Lurgy: I stay still like this. [2558.14] Frank: We get feedback. [2560.86] Frank: I think it sounds like there's a lead that's not quite in. [2564.38] Frank: And I think, probably, if you did touch it, [2566.14] Frank: it would all explode our ears if you did touch it. [2569.98] Tony: I do not move. [2571.42] Tony: That is perfect. [2572.38] Lurgy: I have no problem with my mic, [2573.42] Lurgy: but sometimes we'll be fine and I cannot find it. [2577.42] Tony: Just stay very still like a ventriloquist doll. [2581.26] Tony: If I stay still. [2582.14] Curry: Only with your jaw. [2583.18] Tony: Got all the gear. [2584.14] Tony: Got all the gear. [2588.38] Tony: Move. [2588.86] Tony: Every time you move, it goes. [2593.74] Lurgy: Oh, if it's annoying, I'll have to go. [2596.14] Tony: It's okay. [2596.86] Tony: As long as you stay completely still, [2599.1] Tony: you won't be allowed to move your lips and that's it. [2604.14] Tony: That's it. [2604.86] Tony: Fucking is your eye now. [2607.18] Curry: That's going to be brilliant. [2612.38] Curry: Uses this bandwidth as well. [2614.46] Tony: This will only work if you're watching this. [2618.78] Tony: Wind with your right hand. [2626.38] Tony: That's it. [2628.14] Tony: That's it. [2629.02] Tony: Lower a bit. [2629.82] Tony: Now you talk. [2631.1] Tony: I'm trying to lower. [2632.14] Tony: I've got a window. [2633.74] Tony: Lurking open and shut your mouth. [2637.74] Wynne: I'm halfway out of the window. [2641.5] Tony: It's not quite working as I expected. [2644.14] Wynne: It's not quite working. [2645.18] Frank: I think the YouTube ventriloquist isn't quiet. [2649.74] Frank: It doesn't work. [2654.14] Tony: So I've seen you flying a plane with a lovely sticker on the back. [2660.54] Lurgy: Yeah, that's Martin's wing. [2665.58] Lurgy: It was one that he had a plan for and [2668.38] Lurgy: say unfortunately didn't get the finish and it's just turned out really nice. [2672.62] Tony: He moved. [2674.54] Tony: Sorry, I missed that. [2681.58] Tony: Lurky, we're 206 people watching this. [2685.58] Tony: What happened? [2686.78] Tony: Have we got that weird thing again? [2689.98] Tony: Yeah, I've got 218, 220. [2693.02] Tony: Has someone said anything about sex or any nudity or anything? [2698.86] Tony: DJI, maybe that did it. [2700.22] Curry: We said DJI quite a lot. [2703.26] Tony: Subscribe to my channel. [2707.42] Tony: I'm trying to put a hand up. [2708.78] Wynne: Lurky kind of did it a little bit. [2710.38] Tony: I don't know. [2712.22] Tony: I could have done it. [2718.06] Tony: Put your hand up, Lurky. [2721.18] Tony: Let her pull him in. [2723.5] Frank: Oh, dear. [2724.54] Frank: Lurky, where can people find more videos and stuff of your F-16 and Martin's wing? [2734.78] Lurgy: There aren't too much of the F-16 yet because I'm still in the stages of [2739.58] Lurgy: sort of testing and getting a bit of DVR. [2749.09] Lurgy: You'll need to whisper as well. [2751.01] Tony: I don't know. [2752.37] Tony: Just don't move. [2753.73] Tony: Don't smile. [2757.01] Tony: Just talk, caring quietly. [2760.85] Lurgy: I think maybe I should come back up when I've got some headphones. [2764.29] Tony: I'm going to get some headphones and come back, mate. [2766.93] Lurgy: I don't own any headphones. [2769.17] Lurgy: I've never needed them for any of these chats before. [2772.85] Tony: Someone's been happening. [2775.73] Lurgy: Hang on, let me try and change my microphone or something. [2778.21] Tony: Right, we'll mute you for a minute then. [2782.3] Tony: Sorry, that's Lurky there. [2783.82] Tony: Just killing our ears. [2785.98] Curry: I think as people get into iNav, surely the fun thing to do would be a solo video [2792.38] Curry: where you chase multiple planes, which you're flying them all. [2795.74] Curry: Just launch one, put it in circle mode, get the next one, do the same, [2800.14] Curry: and then you can do your own formation flying. [2802.22] Curry: You can be the red arrows. [2804.22] Curry: There's no chance of them going wrong or anything. [2806.62] Frank: I have wondered about, I mean, if like free flight models, so with engines on, [2815.58] Frank: but no radio control, that's permitted. [2821.66] Frank: If you've got no radio control on board and you've just got iNav and GPS [2826.7] Frank: and you just auto take off, fly some circuits and auto land, [2832.86] Frank: because usually if you've got some kind of autonomy thing on board, [2838.86] Frank: you need to have a radio control and you need to be actively giving it control [2844.54] Frank: and able to take it back. [2846.86] Frank: But if you didn't have any radio control and it's just a free flight model with GPS on, [2854.3] Frank: I wonder if they can... [2855.9] Curry: Is it a free flight model if it has a preplanned mission? [2859.18] Curry: It's sort of a gray area, I feel. [2861.66] Frank: Well, I mean, like the more complicated rubber or even I see free flight models [2866.78] Frank: have like little clockwork mechanisms that mean that after a certain number of minutes, [2871.42] Frank: it'll turn right and then after a certain amount, it'll turn left [2875.02] Frank: and then it'll go up and then it'll go down and then it comes back down again. [2880.62] Frank: The fact that it's bits rather than cogs, is it? [2886.62] Curry: That sounds perfectly allowable to me. [2889.66] Curry: And then he's got a field right out to how he can do it. [2895.34] Lurgy: Yeah, isn't that how Google are going to get round it? [2899.42] Frank: I don't know. [2900.38] Frank: I haven't heard anything about it. [2901.5] Curry: I don't know, I just think they give a load of money to the government and they'll say, [2905.58] Curry: yeah, they won't see anything here. [2906.86] Wynne: Yeah, that'll probably be it. [2912.54] Curry: Yeah, I should say my expertise with iNav is not particularly great. [2915.74] Curry: Last time I tried it, I launched it in pass-through and then when I put it through into [2921.98] Curry: stabilise, it turned upside down and myself perfectly in inverted flight. [2926.94] Curry: So that wasn't... [2929.58] Curry: I'm no person to talk about, iNav. [2931.5] Tony: Right. [2933.5] Curry: Yeah, it's my auto inversion mode, which I didn't actually mean to do. [2938.46] Curry: Seemed all right. [2941.41] Curry: I'm not sure if I fixed it actually, because I want to try it again, because there's sort of... [2945.97] Curry: Something went wrong under full throttle and then the motor didn't respond anymore [2950.29] Curry: and I had to glide it down and then the motor was okay. [2953.41] Curry: So it's like, oh, I'll try flying it again, it'll probably be fine. [2957.17] Curry: And fix the iNav problem yet, don't know, can't remember. [2959.89] Curry: That'd be fun to spy on it in both ways. [2962.21] Wynne: So that's the only thing with iNav. [2965.25] Wynne: I think that it's got a lot of things that you need to set up. [2968.69] Wynne: So for someone, a novice coming into it, it could find it extremely difficult [2975.81] Wynne: to try and get it going just to chuck a plane up in the air. [2979.17] Wynne: But when you do, it works. [2981.01] Wynne: It really does work. [2982.13] Lurgy: It looks surprisingly like Betaflight, just to con you into thinking it's like Betaflight. [2988.05] Lurgy: Yeah. [2989.73] Lurgy: But it is a bit fiddly. [2991.01] Curry: And Painless was here a couple of weeks ago and he was talking about the sort of the old school, [2997.65] Curry: which is like a little... [2999.17] Curry: Have I got one on the shelf? [3000.53] Frank: I've got a prop. [3008.08] Curry: For example, you would get something like this for podcasters. [3012.0] Curry: You can't hear. [3012.56] Curry: This is an RD... [3014.64] Curry: No, what is it called? [3015.6] Curry: This is a MyFly dream, which went horribly wrong. [3018.72] Curry: And this is half a replacement one. [3020.56] Curry: And it's got like about 50 million servo connectors, [3024.0] Curry: which aren't labeled. [3024.8] Curry: So you can cock it up non-end and blow stuff up. [3028.24] Curry: But this was the old school of doing things. [3030.24] Curry: Things like the vector, things like the storm, other stuff. [3035.28] Curry: And it was literally just you put it in your plane, [3037.44] Curry: you can actually let me servos. [3039.36] Curry: And it would have modes like Stabilize and RTH and stuff like that. [3043.04] Curry: And you wouldn't have to really think about it. [3045.28] Curry: It would generally work. [3046.08] Curry: There was a little tiny bit of tuning. [3047.92] Curry: It was mostly just that gained a little bit high. [3051.44] Curry: If it started flying along and went like this, [3054.08] Curry: it's like turning down for Stabilize. [3055.84] Curry: And that was it. [3056.72] Curry: That's all you did. [3057.84] Curry: And I kind of like those because they're easy. [3060.48] Curry: And I don't have to fiddle them out with them. [3062.96] Curry: But there's not many of them going these days. [3064.88] Curry: It's all now iNav's there. [3066.48] Curry: It's kind of taken over. [3068.96] Curry: It feels like there should be like somebody needs to embed iNav into something [3074.24] Curry: and give it a nice sort of easier, nicer interface [3077.28] Curry: where you just like plug this in here and we'll sort it all out for you. [3081.12] Wynne: Yeah, yeah. [3081.76] Wynne: Yeah, I tend to find that. [3084.96] Wynne: What I liked about iNav is the fact that you can just chuck it [3088.96] Wynne: and it'll literally take off itself through your hand [3095.52] Wynne: until you take over the controls. [3097.28] Wynne: And then you're the pilot then, you know. [3101.04] Wynne: So I like that side of things where it helps you. [3106.24] Wynne: It helps you. [3107.12] Wynne: But to get to that stage, it's so complicated [3110.08] Wynne: just to set up on the bench. [3111.92] Frank: I've seen multiple autonomously guided lawn darts [3117.92] Frank: that would suggest that, yeah, the setup is a tricky bit. [3122.24] Wynne: Yeah, you get it wrong and you've got a problem. [3129.44] Curry: Sorry, I'll just go quick. [3131.92] Curry: So the thing that got me the first time is, [3133.6] Curry: like with any previous autopilot, you sort of fly it [3138.4] Curry: and then what you do is you do your trims. [3140.96] Curry: Do you remember trims? [3142.08] Curry: People who just fly quads. [3144.56] Curry: Those are these things on the radio [3145.84] Curry: where you gently check the servos and it's different. [3149.52] Curry: So you get it all trimmed out and you'd land it [3152.24] Curry: and then you'd either do something to the autopilot [3154.24] Curry: or you'd turn it off at that point and it would say, [3156.24] Curry: okay, I've remembered your trimming positions. [3158.64] Curry: This is central. [3162.48] Curry: On iNav, yeah, those are them. [3164.48] Curry: Although you've got this thing called auto trim now, [3167.2] Curry: it used to be that if you tried trimming your plane, [3170.32] Curry: it's like, no, you can't do that. [3172.08] Curry: You have to be in 1500 U6 in the middle [3175.52] Curry: or something's gone wrong. [3176.64] Curry: Now you can put it in auto trim mode [3178.32] Curry: and basically you try and hold it in the air [3179.92] Curry: while auto trims on and basically you have to hold it [3183.92] Curry: on your stick straight and it's like, [3186.64] Curry: I think you need that over there and this over here [3190.96] Curry: and we'll call that about level [3192.48] Curry: and then you sort of save that and it goes again [3194.24] Curry: so you don't have to fiddle with it. [3195.36] Curry: But otherwise, it was like, don't trim it, [3197.76] Curry: correct it mechanically. [3199.2] Curry: That balances it out for you. [3200.8] Curry: So it's like, hang on, I'll just unplug the horn [3204.88] Curry: and I'll twist it in a bit and do stuff. [3207.6] Curry: It was all a bit more hassle. [3209.44] Curry: But this is, you know, it's a free and open source project [3213.6] Curry: and people put up with an awful lot more [3216.96] Curry: to do things on the cheap, don't they? [3219.92] Tony: I love wings when they're flying perfect, [3222.72] Tony: when there's no wind on a summer evening. [3226.32] Tony: Apart from that, I'm just like, oh my God, [3228.32] Tony: there's too much pissing over here. [3230.0] Lurgy: But if you're just doing that, you only need a receiver. [3233.28] Lurgy: There's not even any point in having a flight controller in it. [3235.6] Tony: Oh, no, no, no, totally. [3237.52] Lurgy: But what I was going to say is I've basically now [3239.92] Lurgy: got to that stage of doing the auto trim [3242.08] Lurgy: and I did actually buy another battery to have two flights [3245.76] Lurgy: so I could do an auto trim and have a flight. [3248.24] Lurgy: But unfortunately, the first landing was a bit hard [3250.56] Lurgy: and popped the battery out. [3252.24] Lurgy: So I ended up not saving the settings and having to go again. [3255.92] Lurgy: But yeah, the first and then other launches I've done. [3261.12] Lurgy: I don't know how much you heard, [3262.08] Lurgy: but so I've not done too much on the jet. [3264.08] Lurgy: I'm still sort of testing and doing bits. [3266.32] Lurgy: But there's a few, quite a few videos of the wing, [3269.36] Lurgy: actually, on Lurgy 1 is my channel. [3273.52] Lurgy: I think most people in the chat probably subscribed anyway. [3278.56] Lurgy: But yeah, I know. [3279.28] Lurgy: I've just followed painless, basically, [3281.84] Lurgy: and done all the little settings and on the Wiki [3284.24] Lurgy: and all your altitude and your rise, [3287.76] Lurgy: climb before return to home and things like that, [3290.16] Lurgy: and reset all those levels. [3291.52] Lurgy: And I've not tried absolutely everything yet, [3294.64] Lurgy: but most of it seems to be working out as it should. [3298.48] Lurgy: So yeah, big thanks for painless, definitely. [3302.56] Wynne: Because painless is not really the top notch to go to. [3307.28] Jack: Oh, gentlemen, your conversation makes for interesting listening. [3312.0] Tony: Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, we finished. [3314.72] Tony: Jackie's back. [3316.08] Jack: Oh, man. [3317.04] Jack: I think I've, I think, I think pork goes along with me. [3323.68] Wynne: Probably not. [3324.88] Wynne: So in case of Jackie's back, and how's your backside? [3328.88] Wynne: Not anything. [3329.6] Jack: It's like Hiroshima down there. [3334.88] Jack: Like, I'm well up for doing an INAF special, [3338.24] Jack: but I think every one of my co-hosts [3340.8] Jack: would probably want to kill me. [3342.96] Tony: Except as long as I could have a week off. [3348.32] Jack: Have you? [3349.84] Jack: Oh, okay. [3350.56] Jack: I see what you did there. [3354.64] Jack: Like, one person I highly recommend, [3358.4] Jack: two people I recommend, along with painless, [3362.08] Jack: is Pablo Dukowski. [3369.04] Jack: Name one more time for people who may have missed it, please. [3372.0] Tony: Well, we didn't hear that. [3373.2] Jack: Pablo, thank you. [3375.44] Jack: Pablo. [3376.72] Jack: And Andrew Newton from Australia. [3381.52] Jack: Yeah, he's really good. [3383.6] Jack: He's done like a little set-up video, [3386.08] Jack: and he references Pablo back and forth. [3393.2] Lurgy: He's also been doing the rover, isn't he? [3395.92] Lurgy: That's great. [3400.21] Lurgy: Sounds interesting, definitely. [3401.65] Lurgy: Yes, when I saw that INAF was doing the rover. [3406.69] Jack: I can't say his name. [3408.21] Jack: I'm so sorry. [3409.33] Jack: Pavlov. [3409.89] Wynne: He posted his link. [3413.57] Jack: Can we have a link to what, Andrew Newton or Pavlov? [3417.73] Tony: Pavlov. [3422.37] Curry: Is it any relation to Pavlov's dog? [3424.21] Curry: Is this what you're trying to talk about? [3425.41] Curry: Yeah, I don't know. [3427.09] Curry: I forget. [3428.21] Frank: For some reason, it comes out of Jack's mouth. [3430.45] Frank: There's Pavlova sprinkles. [3434.69] Curry: I can't help it. [3435.49] Tony: I don't know if it's just called an immune cat. [3438.85] Curry: Don't forget to drag the nuts off. [3442.85] Curry: Is he still producing videos? [3444.53] Curry: He closed down pretty much his Facebook page ages ago. [3449.25] Curry: Is he still doing flights and stuff? [3450.69] Curry: I haven't noticed him pop up on my feed ever in the last six months. [3454.61] Lurgy: Yeah, he had a massive wing at the field, didn't he? [3458.05] Lurgy: Did he? [3458.53] Lurgy: Yeah, someone at his club made a huge wing. [3462.45] Lurgy: Literally like 10 foot wingspan. [3465.01] Tony: I think I've saw that on Insta or Facebook. [3469.89] Tony: Two guys standing behind it. [3471.73] Lurgy: Yeah, they hand launched it. [3474.77] Tony: Jesus, they put it on the top of a car and drive fast. [3477.89] Lurgy: No, they just ran along with it and hand launched it. [3480.29] Lurgy: It did have landing gear on, but it fell off on the first attempt, so I thought I could throw it. [3486.21] Tony: Oh, we're back to our normal viewing count, 35. [3490.21] Jack: That's because I returned. [3494.53] Tony: Jesus Christ, I see him again. [3496.53] Jack: Put him off. [3498.77] Jack: I don't know whether to... [3507.01] Jack: I've got a playlist. [3508.05] Jack: I don't know whether to share that. [3511.49] Jack: I've got an iNav set up. [3515.41] Jack: playlist. [3516.21] Jack: Yeah. [3519.01] Wynne: That'll definitely help someone out. [3522.69] Curry: If we ever managed to all fly again, everybody would have to bring a quad and a wing. [3527.97] Frank: Oh, yeah. [3528.77] Curry: Not just Frank around so we could try and ram it with this time. [3535.33] Tony: I need to repair my wing again. [3537.65] Tony: Even though I've got it repaired from Optum and Jack, it needs motor mount needs. [3541.73] Jack: I've never touched that wing. [3543.57] Tony: Oh, well, it was repaired by Dan then. [3549.09] Tony: But it's got a crack on the motor mount, and I've got to take that off, trace around it, [3555.09] Tony: and cut a new motor mount. [3557.81] Curry: And then just wrap gaffer tape around it, Tony style. [3560.29] Tony: I'll probably just tape it with cello tape rather than gaffer tape, to be honest. [3567.25] Wynne: Computer numerical control. [3570.61] Wynne: Sorry. [3572.07] Wynne: Yep. [3572.57] Wynne: That's my latest toy. [3574.23] Wynne: You've probably seen Andy R.C. [3577.43] Wynne: What one's that? [3579.27] Wynne: The VI fly, I think it is. [3581.11] Wynne: Oh, right. [3582.47] Wynne: Yeah, that's quite good. [3584.15] Wynne: Have you done any filming? [3584.63] Wynne: Obviously, one of them. [3587.91] Wynne: I know. [3588.39] Wynne: I watched a video with that. [3591.99] Tony: I still haven't watched it. [3593.11] Frank: It's a 360 go. [3594.79] Frank: It's a good one. [3596.79] Tony: It looks a bit strange. [3598.15] Tony: Did you have any trouble with it? [3600.15] Tony: Quite a lot of people said it was really jerky and crap, but you have to get the right. [3604.39] Curry: Andy said he was having a real hassle getting something smooth out of it, didn't he? [3609.03] Wynne: Yeah. [3610.63] Wynne: I use the desktop software, and it seems to work well with it. [3615.35] Wynne: You do get some kind of jello going on, but I think that can happen with anything, [3622.23] Wynne: especially with one of these things. [3624.95] Wynne: So I've balanced the props, I've tried to take anything vibratory out of it a little bit, [3629.35] Wynne: and see what happens next time. [3632.07] Tony: Well, I watched your video of it filming the drone itself, and it was great. [3636.87] Tony: It was good. [3638.23] Wynne: It's good fun. [3638.87] Wynne: You get a totally different perspective. [3641.27] Wynne: So obviously, it was on a kind of a 3D printed selfie stick, and stuck at the back of the quad, [3648.79] Wynne: and I had the GoPro in the front film, and then I had this thing, the Instago, at the back. [3654.23] Wynne: And of course, what I did when I was doing the stunts, [3657.51] Wynne: I just stuck it on horizon mode, and it was levelled off to the horizon. [3664.47] Wynne: Well, the quad was doing its thing and turning around, and it's different, totally different. [3668.79] Wynne: Yeah, I liked it. [3669.67] Wynne: I liked it. [3671.03] Wynne: I'm putting it on the city boop after and flying around the trees. [3673.75] Wynne: That was even more good fun until I decided to dump it into a load of brush, [3678.55] Wynne: and I couldn't find it because it didn't have a buzzer on it. [3681.11] Wynne: So it took me a while to actually... [3683.51] Wynne: Wait, you're good at the curry reaction there, yep. [3685.83] Curry: Jesus Christ. [3688.31] Curry: I don't know why I bother. [3689.99] Curry: I'm closing my channel. [3690.95] Curry: I've given up. [3693.59] Curry: I don't lose your quads, people. [3695.51] Curry: Put a buzzer on. [3696.87] Curry: Put something on to find it. [3698.31] Lurgy: I've got a buzzer on my corner, and it is such a pain in the ass with it going off all the time. [3705.51] Lurgy: And every time I think of curry, definitely, like, [3708.87] Lurgy: yeah, I've got to keep it on there. [3710.15] Lurgy: It's a pain, but I'm keeping it on there. [3712.79] Lurgy: Even if you just end up plugging the curry back in again, just shut it up, don't you? [3717.03] Wynne: I have that one on me, racing ones as well. [3718.95] Wynne: I have it on every single one. [3720.63] Wynne: But the thing I always forget is to press the bloody button after I pulled the battery. [3726.07] Wynne: So all the lads are going at me as I've walked away or gone to the toilet and said, [3730.79] Wynne: that bloody thing's been buzzing for a while. [3733.59] Wynne: And you press the bloody button on it. [3736.79] Wynne: But, yeah. [3738.23] Wynne: But on this, it has D-shot, and you should be able to put the buzzer on it on the motors. [3745.51] Wynne: But it didn't seem to work for some reason, and it seems to reckon so. [3748.71] Curry: What happens if the battery comes out? [3750.39] Curry: When were you going to do then? [3751.83] Wynne: If the battery comes into a tree. [3754.95] Curry: I mean, this is what you need to... [3756.71] Curry: Which has got its own measurement. [3758.23] Curry: That's why I've got a little buzzer on it now. [3761.11] Curry: Oh, good. [3762.07] Tony: 227 viewers. [3764.31] Tony: Hello, 227. [3766.15] Curry: It's because we started talking about buzzers. [3767.99] Tony: Can you press the like button, please? [3772.23] Jack: There's not 227 people watching. [3775.03] Jack: I don't care what anyone says. [3777.35] Tony: Can't be true. [3779.03] Jack: Anyway, we've got to wrap up anyway. [3782.71] Jack: But, yeah, maybe we should do like a little bit of an INAV like show one day [3790.47] Jack: and kind of just go through some stuff and that. [3793.59] Wynne: Yeah. [3794.63] Frank: Well, if anyone's got any other ideas for topics or people [3799.11] Frank: or any particular ideas of things that we should cover in the show, [3804.31] Frank: drop them in the comments or the chat or stick them on our Discord [3809.83] Frank: that you should be able to find in the description [3812.15] Frank: or you can send messages to us on Facebook at Facebook.com slash Let's Drone Out [3817.99] Frank: or Patreon at Patreon.com slash Let's Drone Out [3821.27] Frank: or through our website at Let's Drone Out dot com. [3824.95] Frank: 240. [3826.31] Curry: So next week, we have a guest on from the Open HD project [3832.07] Curry: to talk about what that involves and how you do it. [3835.83] Curry: And a kit list. [3837.27] Curry: But I thought he could talk because it sounds scary [3839.99] Curry: when you say two Raspberry Pi's, a couple of routers, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. [3844.87] Curry: And Bob's your uncle. [3845.99] Curry: But it's probably slightly friendlier than that, we'd hope. [3849.75] Curry: As people seem to be putting it on planes. [3853.19] Wynne: Thanks for having me on LUDGE. [3854.55] Wynne: It's been fantastic. [3855.59] Jack: See you. [3858.15] Jack: Yeah, you've been you've been listening to Let's Drone Out. [3862.71] Jack: Tonight, you've been joined by Andrew Sashrank. [3865.19] Frank: Hi. [3866.39] Jack: My Little Time Star. [3868.07] Tony: Bonjour. [3869.75] Jack: Everyone's favorite Curry kitten. [3872.47] Jack: Goodbye. [3873.59] Jack: Halfway guest, Gwen Davis. [3876.07] Wynne: Bye. [3877.35] Jack: And our little foam board squirrel keeper. [3884.63] Lurgy: Goodbye, everyone. [3885.43] Lurgy: Thanks for having me on. [3887.27] Jack: That was goodbye. [3888.39] Jack: Thanks for having me on. [3889.83] Jack: And I enjoy carrots.
