Thank you to call us campus art folk now Sam Dharma on with the show [51.67] Jack: Hello and welcome back you're listening to let's run out [56.79] Jack: Tonight we are joined by and it's a friend. Hey [61.87] Jack: Steven oh [63.39] Jack: My buddy Tom and my darling wife Tony. Oh [68.87] Jack: Dear I love you so much [73.11] Jack: Is that the vomiting? Yeah, okay [75.99] Jack: At least say hello to the audience [79.11] Jack: And I'm bright as I fly. Thank you for tuning in [83.71] Jack: Yeah, how is the sound? [87.91] Jack: Hello, and hopefully we have a bit more of a bit, right? [92.19] Jack: But yeah, you can put in the chat what we sound like do I need to talk louder? [97.79] Jack: That's fantastic. Oh [102.35] Jack: Silence your phones I did [104.91] Stephen: And we've also got a special guest walking around the room cocoa to do may or may not appear on stream this evening [112.71] Jack: depending on how question [117.79] Jack: So we've been doing this for seven years I am [122.47] Jack: Really proud of you guys [124.79] Jack: It's been been a roller coaster ride [132.87] Jack: Yeah [135.35] Jack: Not not talking about drones when did them when did Bob well mention us? [140.99] Jack: Is this a recent thing or not? Oh one of his round ups of? [145.39] Stephen: He said we have a drone podcast with very heavy [148.75] Stephen: I feel inverted commas around the drone topic and we were just talking about how it was intended speak more of a kind of chat down [156.75] Stephen: the pub [159.27] Jack: Yeah [162.03] Jack: You know we talk about drones, but there is more to like that than drones and it was [167.71] Jack: Yeah [171.99] MULTIPLE: Should we talk about your wing line? Yeah? [174.43] Frank: Well, it's the the thrust vector wing that I've heard on on stream before it says got foot control. It's got to [183.95] Frank: Push of motors which both independently tilt so it can do pitch and roll by just tilting the motors [191.07] Frank: and then they can do your by speed them up and slowing them down and [195.31] Frank: Yeah [197.71] Frank: So I'm kind of happy that it no longer exists [202.75] Frank: Because it means I don't have to tune it [204.75] MULTIPLE: It made a weird noise [206.75] MULTIPLE: Ooooh [208.75] Jack: It pulsated [210.75] MULTIPLE: It was just like voice [212.75] MULTIPLE: And it was easy to carry home [215.95] Frank: Yeah, it was easy to pack and put in the bag and grab hold of the gym need and rise back [222.11] Jack: No, we don't talk about packing [224.11] Jack: I'm very sure it's bad as it is [226.75] Frank: That is bum [227.95] Frank: Yeah, so I have the uh the spec wing in the car that I'm gonna hopefully be racing in some number of weeks [233.63] Frank: That's getting smaller and smaller [235.31] Frank: Oh god [236.43] Frank: and then we you know parked up on the top of the hill next to hidden valley [240.59] Frank: and [241.39] Frank: It just sort of [243.23] Frank: Heard the wind and was like well i'm not made an igneous today [247.15] MULTIPLE: This is staying for summer. It was probably a 20 mile constant. Yeah, it was challenging [252.83] Frank: Yeah, but I had the stupid wing that needed [257.15] Frank: redoing anyway [259.71] Jack: And I love the hatch it was made of pure tape [264.51] Jack: So when you did crash and it was in half I was like do you want some tape? [270.19] Jack: And then um, it still hurts to laugh so then I had to like [275.47] Jack: Crawl on the floor whilst wetting myself [279.23] Jack: You guys should talk about um [281.87] Stephen: You all met last week, didn't you? [286.43] Stephen: Fairly successful some of us flew a lot of packs some flew less everyone flew [291.23] Stephen: No one smashed anything into too many pieces. There are a couple of little things, but yeah, I mean a few people definitely got stuck [299.87] Jack: Yeah [302.11] Stephen: Yeah, we yeah, I definitely we never really bruised around with a 10 meter clearance between us and everything [309.39] MULTIPLE: Was it worth nine million miles? [312.75] Jack: Yeah, I mean we got to see everyone got to hang out the weather was great [317.07] Jack: Did everyone miss me? Yeah, of course [322.51] Jack: Yeah [325.31] Jack: You know me and frank really tried to like bring you or get you to come [331.63] Stephen: It was a nice atmosphere [333.31] Stephen: Yeah, it was good. It was it was very casual [335.47] Stephen: It wasn't like everyone stabbed at the flight line and in 315 there's going to be a display type of stuff [340.27] Stephen: It was just hanging out [341.87] Stephen: Seeing if people can do tricks and if you can't be bothered to do the tricks [344.75] Stephen: You just queue up and fly as many batteries as you want around this huge and it has to be said huge [351.31] Stephen: uh power plant that [353.55] Stephen: Was it a cold one? [354.99] Stephen: Yeah around the the lifts for a cold power station and it looks small in that [360.91] Stephen: Uncrashed level and in the pictures, but in real life it is [365.23] Frank: Endorsing [373.79] Stephen: Yeah, if you had a good quality analog setup it was okay, I tried a few micros and uh [379.71] Stephen: Channel two wasn't great for analog when channel two when channel one was running dji [385.07] Stephen: I got kind of blasted [386.51] Stephen: It was the point where I punched out waited for it to chill and then kind of just brought it back in [392.35] Stephen: I was on 200 milliwatt [394.75] Stephen: Everyone else was on 400 on analog which was better [398.35] Stephen: And if you were flying on analog you probably didn't want to be right next to a channel [402.99] Stephen: That was currently flying dji you wanted to get a distance [406.59] Jack: Yeah, you know, I I got on my second flight. It was just horrendous [412.43] Jack: I got the I you know, I got the bars across it [416.43] Jack: You know and that's more the dji goggles that [420.67] Jack: I think that's that yeah [423.31] Jack: um [423.95] Jack: and like if a dji [426.59] Jack: Quad would do a flyby you would get like the rolling [431.47] Jack: Like shuttery interference [434.19] Jack: But how did you find it because that was your first event? [438.11] Koel: Yeah, I was actually surprised. I didn't have any um [441.31] Koel: Any breakup issues or signal issues at all? [443.87] Koel: I I did get those like four digital lines in the goggles when I was near dji pilots, but [449.95] UNKNOWN: Nothing I couldn't fly with so yeah, I think you going to like the full power that they sent [457.31] Jack: Made it so much better. Yeah, but like that second pack [461.87] Jack: I had worse video than when I was sat at the back of the [468.27] Jack: of the fence [470.11] Jack: In you know with a with in the marquee tent, so I barred with me when you were flying [476.75] Jack: I had better signal watching you from nowhere near a flight line than I did on my on [484.19] Jack: with um [485.39] Frank: Channel three that's that's the kind of fairly typical thing of events layout is that the further back that you can get away from [492.75] Frank: The flying area. Yeah, well, it's just even with analog even like just back in pure analog days [497.95] Frank: If you can move all the pilots further back [501.07] Frank: It has a much bigger effect on [503.39] Frank: The channels that you're not tuned into then it has on the channel [507.63] Frank: It's green talking about like football pitch. Don't sit on the you know [511.39] Frank: Everyone has it set up where they're sitting on the side where you actually want it lengthwise. So you're shooting the [517.31] Frank: You go that way. Yeah, and then you can get more more [521.15] Frank: You know that was [522.75] Frank: It did make a big impression on the whole event [525.39] Frank: Basically every rule [529.63] Frank: Past seven years organizing volunteering and you know helping out with various fpv events [536.43] Frank: Every rule was broken there and how to organize it, but they pulled it off and it worked [541.39] Frank: um, like [542.43] Stephen: None of the people were stuck but there were people who were trying to fly through [546.59] Stephen: Six inch wide gaps 200 foot off the ground, but like they deserved it [551.63] Stephen: Yeah [552.83] Frank: Yeah, like 99 percent of people were having an absolutely great time which for an fpv event is actually pretty good [561.15] Frank: And you know I it really drove home to me that the freestyle community [567.15] Frank: Is like has diverged from the racing community and it's like, you know [571.71] Frank: In fact when we all like got to know each other and really started lbo [576.43] Frank: like we all go into events where you know, you could [580.59] Frank: Uh, you know there were people to be turning up with two pods [584.11] Frank: They'd be the racer and their freestyle board and they'd start off with a racer on the racetrack and then crash it and then they'd [589.39] Frank: Get their freestyle out and run that round the racetrack [592.51] Frank: Or if it was like a bando you'd start with your freestyle and your racer would be your back [597.39] Frank: And just kind of see how different everything is now. It's just they're completely different hollies [605.95] Frank: Like being analog as well and [608.35] Frank: Not having a dji and like it's the first event i've been to where i haven't been able to just tune into everyone [615.15] Frank: And like that was that [617.15] Koel: That was really the death of analog like properly. Oh, yeah. I feel like the digital was [626.27] Frank: That was the main thing there. Yeah. Yeah, the dji was completely dominant digital [633.55] Frank: Absolutely [634.83] Frank: and it's but like for me [637.15] Frank: My fpv was a hobby [639.39] Frank: Well, I could pay 50 quid for a pair of cheap box goggles and I could go to any event and I could tune in [644.91] Frank: And I could watch it. Yeah, but yeah, but back then [646.83] Frank: Dji, it's been taking pictures [649.87] Frank: Yeah, that was the only [652.03] Stephen: Why we could do it. They did force but for dji users [655.15] Stephen: They set up one to use 25 megabit, which is a single channel and you can run an audience mode on that [660.35] Stephen: So if you did have dji goggles [662.51] Stephen: You could bounce around and you you could even see like which channels are active, which is quite nice [667.55] Stephen: I've never really used audience mode because i've never been [670.75] Stephen: Flying with enough people who have digital but it was worth doing but at that event [675.55] Stephen: It was really nice to be able to go into audience mode and like randy rc was flying to plane around [680.59] Stephen: Go to audience mode and watch him fly yet [683.31] Stephen: And even like record snippets of him flying it and it worked surprisingly well, which was [688.35] Stephen: nice [689.63] Stephen: also, something we should mention that we had failsafe there and a couple other guys who [695.31] Stephen: Announced sponsored by walksnail and we're showing some walksnail kit and failsafe went so far as to run [701.71] Stephen: A pretty big monitor off of a lipo and hook that up to the hdni out of the goggles [707.63] Stephen: So that bystanders could walk up and see what he was flying and and I had it go there as well [712.35] Stephen: We also had a little fly afterwards and I looked at ndrc's walksnail setup as well and I had to say [718.67] Stephen: I'm impressed. Yeah, i'm not sure it's great. It's value right now. It's kind of expensive and it's got a few problems [725.79] Stephen: But it's really interesting [729.31] MULTIPLE: All i've seen of it is [732.35] MULTIPLE: Bot grinder's videos [734.67] MULTIPLE: And things flew like 50 meters away. It was like [739.15] MULTIPLE: But it could be it [741.63] Stephen: It did fire the hd01 and forget to screw the antenna on it. Yeah, I know he does forget things [748.59] Stephen: Well, everything that I saw from the event, the walknail looked amazing [753.07] Stephen: It didn't have one problem [754.27] Stephen: I noticed they were playing with firmware revisions right after the event and they were running the people who are demo doing on beta firmware [760.43] Stephen: That isn't available to the general public. So that's something that's taken into account. It's a moving target [765.15] Stephen: Yeah, and when i'm dropped behind this huge brick and concrete, uh, coal [770.35] Stephen: Whatever station powerhead or whatever they call it colliery. Are they they called it for something? [776.43] Stephen: Clipstone collier clipstone power house. I think power house is the event venue. They're building in it now [781.71] Stephen: Okay [782.19] Stephen: anyway [782.83] Stephen: I dropped behind this [784.19] Stephen: Add a line of sight to the quad and then drop behind a bunch of brick and steel [789.71] Stephen: And instead of the image degrading it briefly froze and made me [794.43] Stephen: Make a little bit of proof [796.99] Stephen: For about like a tenth or a fifth of a second [800.03] Stephen: The image was completely static in the goggles didn't move at all and I was like, oh here we go [804.83] Stephen: I'm gonna have to do the walk of shame and get someone to climb over these fence with a hard hat [809.31] Stephen: But then it just snapped in again. And so instead of [812.99] Frank: That's better over [814.11] Stephen: Digi already. Well, no [816.43] Stephen: Digi like one [818.19] Stephen: It's gone. It's gone. No, no, no, but it wasn't it was going from like four bars of signal to three bars of signal [824.11] Stephen: Instead of degrading it just stopped [826.59] Stephen: And then it took like a noticeable amount of time to change in quality down from top quality to second best quality [834.91] Stephen: It didn't degrade smoothly. It wasn't it was it wasn't completely outage. I was never running out of length budget [840.27] Stephen: I was never at the point where I was losing video [842.75] Stephen: But what was happening instead of degrading it was freezing thinking about it and then going to like a lower quality [851.07] Stephen: And that's not what you want really [854.03] Stephen: But the quality when it was working was superb [858.67] Stephen: really nice [860.83] MULTIPLE: Yeah, justify the buy [865.47] Frank: Up [873.07] Stephen: Yeah, this does all come back to what frank was saying though that [876.35] Stephen: It's going to be expensive. There's no way around it [879.95] Stephen: It's not going to be getting to that'll be 50 quid [883.47] Stephen: Not sure you can get box goggles for 50 quid anymore. I think maybe not [887.15] Stephen: more about where it's coming in for the [890.03] Frank: like the [892.11] Frank: D2s or the [894.99] Frank: 80 quid maybe and they were pretty reasonable [898.67] Frank: But I just mean like that's like the the whole barriers of entry like I got into ftv for like 200 quids [906.43] Frank: I don't think I would be able to anymore [909.39] Frank: No, not on the level where it was a quads that I could take to any event and have a go [913.95] Frank: You know, I took it around tracks. I took it around band-aids [916.83] Frank: Flew up the other people and was on par and had the same experience [919.95] Stephen: It speaks to the general technological advancement and specialization that you talked about where [924.75] Stephen: Freestyle and racing has diverged a lot. Absolutely [928.35] Frank: it's like [929.71] Frank: For me for my dreams of like mini air show and having like the one event that everyone would go to whether it was a scale fpv [935.95] Frank: Or the woops or the x-class or the wings or the freestylers of the races and having everyone in one field and being able to sort of go [942.83] Frank: Oh, this is actually quite cool. I might want to have a go at something like this [946.35] Frank: I'm being able to [947.87] Frank: Fairly reasonably switch between different lanes of fpv [952.59] Frank: this this is kind of like [954.75] Frank: Hidden really hard that is it's like it's the end of that because [958.43] Frank: The the fundamental technology is no longer [961.47] Frank: Power and dsc over 5.8 gigahertz. It's [965.47] Frank: It's something closed [967.39] Stephen: Yeah [968.51] Stephen: There are a lot of people there like the majority of people flying kiss as well. I think races have just stopped flying [975.23] Stephen: Yes, there's a few people flying in your flight. Not so many beta flight. Uh beta flight. I was there wearing my t-shirt [982.35] Stephen: Um [983.31] Stephen: Standing up for beta flight, but I think you know kiss probably had the majority of the quads there [988.27] Jack: I did not in my 10. They were all beat fly [992.11] Stephen: Yeah, I didn't see anybody else in the main flight walk style. Everyone was flying kiss. I thought [997.55] Koel: No, no, that's why I didn't well, I'm fat tex kiss, isn't it's the same thing [1001.79] Koel: Yeah, kind of I guess but no it's full [1004.75] Frank: I start swearing, isn't it? [1007.47] Koel: Think that well you can run this configuration on it [1010.11] Koel: So doesn't that make it unless you're on the alpha firmware, which a lot a lot of the walk style guys were on the alpha firmware [1016.59] Koel: but [1017.63] Koel: Yeah, same. Yeah, same thing [1020.75] Frank: Sorry dorothy still like trying to communicate with the dog [1030.83] Stephen: Yeah [1033.07] Jack: I mean ways of time. I think she's figured that someone might have some chips. Yeah, 200 for a stack now says tailspin. I'll see [1043.95] Jack: Yeah, we're back in focus the quality's come back yeah, I don't think it was focused I think it was a bit break [1051.87] Frank: Using all the internet for watching ourselves [1054.93] Jack: Yeah [1062.61] Frank: Link in the description below somewhere down there. I'm not open for the super chat thing anymore. No, why not because tax [1070.29] Stephen: Yeah [1077.97] Stephen: A tax advisor says we are not best [1085.01] Frank: Drink they can they can they can pay pal in the thing below [1089.41] Frank: Paybells of me slash. Let's go now [1093.57] Jack: I'm cheap. Yeah, um match text says congrats. Happy university folks [1101.09] Jack: I don't know what that means. We're graduating guys. That's fine. Did it take seven years of med school? [1106.93] Jack: It was only five predictive texts. Yeah, just seven years of meds seven years of meds. How does it feel? [1114.37] Jack: um [1116.05] Jack: So audio deets here. Thank you tailspin's here catch 22's here. Richard Warwick [1125.57] Jack: Caroline is lovely to meet you [1128.45] Jack: um [1129.33] Jack: Numskull [1130.61] Jack: Lurgy. Hello, buddy [1132.61] Jack: Johnny Banton, that's the name we haven't seen in a while [1136.85] Jack: Yeah, fail safe. It was lovely to meet you [1139.97] Jack: Um, we forced poor fail safe to take a photo of all of us [1145.89] Jack: Thank you [1148.61] Stephen: Yeah, it's got a wonderful wonderful animated gif of jack molest in ambios [1155.73] Jack: I know you're gonna sign it. He got a semi from it. So I don't think it counts [1160.77] Jack: Um [1163.01] Jack: Medi 79 hello [1165.97] Jack: zero the best mods [1169.07] Jack: 661 fbv squeaky fbv. That's a great name [1173.41] MULTIPLE: I haven't been squeaky for a long time. Apparently squeaky and um carlsey. Hello, buddy. Uh stewart [1181.09] MULTIPLE: What helps have a nice guy flown for a little while. I saw them talking about in the uh on the face bombs [1188.45] MULTIPLE: Yeah, they're like flying the drone for a long time. So [1192.45] Jack: Go out and have a fly guy. Just go and enjoy that 20 mile an hour wind [1201.09] Stephen: We appreciate more power like getting that thing out [1203.81] Stephen: The five inches are getting blown around like six s five inches blown around today [1208.29] Stephen: But it'll be a little seven inch shell and yeah double up the number of packs and really flash it [1213.73] Stephen: And I did that around the colliery. I also learned that failsafe at the end and it landed it giggling like a mania [1221.33] Stephen: I reviewed failsafe's d. We are and I can't believe how fast and how close to the ground he was flying [1227.97] Stephen: I said don't do anything crazy with it and he didn't take it for any still girls. Bless him [1233.65] Stephen: He was doing like 80 or 90 mile an hour about six inches from the ground guys got skills [1239.33] Jack: Yeah, so kudos spell said well [1242.05] Jack: Double A's in the chat. Hello [1245.25] Jack: Thank you. You've you've always tuned in [1249.89] MULTIPLE: So what we're gonna do are we gonna carry on for another second? [1253.57] Jack: I don't know. I think we'll make it to like nine or ten and then we'll probably murder each other [1258.85] Jack: I reckon ten. I mean Frank's already had enough [1263.57] MULTIPLE: Should we get to ten and then just yeah [1265.81] Jack: Yeah, and then just [1270.61] Jack: Just watch barbell Wall Street and commentate on that doesn't it show become its own like legal entity at that point like it's [1277.33] Jack: They can choose even choose what parent to live with. I know that [1281.57] Jack: There's anyone down 90 for a beer for me. I don't know. It's dude. You have to check the email [1288.37] Jack: Do it [1289.57] Jack: Double A's down for some nerve [1292.13] Jack: Um [1294.13] Jack: Yeah, so after after the we've received money [1300.37] Jack: No, don't let the thing go come on click, um, john lewis [1305.49] Jack: Thank you. I might not have wanted their actual full name read out [1311.25] Jack: Might have an fpv name [1314.13] Jack: Is a fancy high street store [1317.09] Stephen: And also great [1319.33] MULTIPLE: PayPal great gopro care. It's the only other that's what happens. I'm just following the rest. This is even work [1327.01] Frank: The only message is have a drink. So i'm assuming that's like he can't he's got a drive [1333.17] Jack: I'm done now, but someone asked me. I'm true. Well, we haven't paid to tell me right? I'll be selfish [1337.89] Jack: Continue donating [1343.97] Jack: Do you know the number for the car [1349.17] Jack: Isn't this over a certain mouth we're screwing [1354.53] Jack: But what about pay the tab in bits over a period of time I normally mute myself [1360.29] MULTIPLE: And uh shut the camera off and I know you're weak and I just walk off [1364.69] Stephen: Yes [1381.41] Jack: So after drug drone fest we went to the cooling towers [1391.81] Jack: Yeah, uh frank [1393.41] Frank: Uh lots of quads and vaults, shouldn't they again? It's a quad i'm not happy to I mean not unhappy to lose [1399.73] Frank: It's like it it flew like anyway [1404.05] Jack: It's just like I don't like that one [1406.05] Frank: Yeah, pretty much again. That's that's a good reason to fly something. It's like I don't really like this [1410.85] Frank: I'm just gonna fly it where it's sketchy [1413.25] Frank: And then it won't ever come back to me.

Yeah the [3001.45] Jack: To be honest though mine looked [3004.49] Jack: worse for wearing than the [3007.13] Jack: after healthy, I know yeah because it has [3010.73] Jack: Numerous slow grenades tied to it was crashed into the ground four times and I care to admit. Yeah [3017.93] Jack: So again impatient [3020.81] Stephen: Same thing same problem. No, it means on problematic. We were learning this [3025.45] Stephen: I went flying a while ago and the guy couldn't quite figure out that tying a large cast at the bottom [3030.97] Stephen: He was going to make it fly differently and sort of bounced it like a skipping stone [3035.93] Stephen: Into a tree and then the second time around he was sure he had it right [3039.93] Stephen: And just gave it full bore and the thing freaked out and flipped over violently backwards shot past him and landed in the hedge [3047.05] Stephen: While he stood there being covered in blue dust [3050.97] Frank: Oh, man, it's a bit like jack of the weekend. It just looked like he was molesting the genie [3057.29] Frank: That's a wonderful picture and jack's just getting right in there with his hands [3061.13] MULTIPLE: Yeah [3068.57] Jack: Flying in the tunnels that was a bonus [3071.85] Jack: Yeah, that was the bonus jack flying in the sewers of price. It was the worst thing ever [3079.45] Jack: That is not not what was the original plan [3083.05] Jack: That was the plan [3085.69] MULTIPLE: That is entirely intentional [3087.69] Jack: So it was [3089.21] Jack: It was first person view if you know them and they were the guys who supplied each [3095.61] Jack: mapling with [3097.93] Jack: the [3099.21] Jack: Mavericks this is kind of what got us all in this mess [3103.21] Jack: Um, no, not the mavericks the phantoms back then and they this is when minicords like when it first started being a thing [3112.49] Jack: And it was yeah, it was blackout. It was 3s [3117.69] Jack: ZMR [3119.85] Jack: ZMR [3121.93] Jack: and [3123.29] Jack: um [3124.25] Jack: that you know, they just kind of started and I had still a quad made of wood and [3131.69] Jack: They wanted to test whether you could actually fly anything down there and they were going to try and [3136.33] Jack: Do a race but it was all built out of bricks and stuff [3140.97] Jack: Unless it was like a drag race [3144.89] Jack: Well some parts of it were [3147.29] Jack: You know, like you could put your arms out about here if that's anything to go by [3152.73] Jack: um [3153.93] Jack: Yeah, and then there's other bits [3156.65] Jack: There's other bits that are like massive [3160.09] Jack: But how you would fly it they'll have a circuit for multi-path. No all for multi-path [3166.41] Jack: It's damp. There's just water in the air. It's the sink [3170.81] Jack: It's sweating down there. So your electronics just get covered in water and then I [3178.65] Jack: No, and then they crash and then slide down [3184.81] Jack: Slide down the tunnel and then get in the and there's your prop spin [3190.57] Jack: And then [3201.05] Jack: An alarm goes off and you must get out or you will drown [3214.17] Jack: I was don't give you gloves and gloves great [3218.41] MULTIPLE: Yeah [3222.49] Jack: In case you hit your head and then go out conscious and then lay in this shit [3230.25] Jack: I was um, yeah, I was horrendously here after [3233.69] MULTIPLE: And I [3242.49] Jack: I [3245.53] Jack: Went to see my friend and was like just spray me in the face with debt [3249.93] Jack: I mean he was just spraying me [3252.25] Jack: And I used to like I'd burn myself in IPA. Basically just get [3257.29] Jack: Yeah, that's the proper outcome. Just just swab yourself. Yeah, it was horrendous [3262.33] Jack: Do they build ultrasonic barns big enough for you? No, no, I wish [3268.89] Stephen: I wish oh, okay [3271.93] Stephen: There's a number of very obvious failings though, which i'm surprised you didn't spot the fact that sewers are [3278.71] Stephen: Metoriously, you might say [3282.49] Stephen: This this wasn't factored in did people tell you something about [3286.65] Jack: Some stuff they spin your propaganda about sewers [3289.69] Jack: The trouble is is if you look you can you can pay to go on and talk. So if you google [3295.61] MULTIPLE: He does that I know [3298.65] MULTIPLE: Says yeah [3302.65] MULTIPLE: Go down the stairs [3304.65] Jack: The worst part is when you go in there's like a perp don't need to go outside [3309.85] Jack: It's under the pier and all the junkies are like [3313.61] MULTIPLE: The most brilliant [3317.05] MULTIPLE: If you want to go [3330.17] Jack: Let me give you a mask or like, you know like masks [3340.33] Frank: Anything people are looking forward to [3342.81] Frank: Over the next few years because i'm looking forward to trying out [3348.25] Frank: Taking the the the spec wing out mavening it and then taking it to a race and probably crashing it halfway around the first line [3355.85] Frank: but nevertheless [3359.37] Jack: The wing that chris g's gonna lend you [3362.73] Jack: Looks a lot. That is true. I have at least two opportunities [3368.49] Frank: Yes [3372.97] Jack: Is there room in your tent for me [3376.97] Jack: I don't think uh, I don't think I can handle it [3388.09] Jack: You like how bad I I take that [3392.65] MULTIPLE: What you know, you'd take me more. Yeah [3396.81] Jack: Like it's honk on [3399.77] Jack: Star Wars [3403.37] Frank: I smell like one of them [3415.46] Frank: At the event was it was fpv stuff on the front on the back it just said [3419.86] Frank: You thought I smelled bad on the outside [3422.34] Jack: Yeah [3424.34] Jack: That's the right. I don't know why I thought of you jack. Yeah [3428.42] Jack: That was in you [3431.54] Jack: Sounds like woodstock 99 [3434.82] Jack: Is the video still on for some reason i'd like to watch that. Uh, just refresh here [3440.9] Frank: No, no, no, no [3442.9] Jack: Full sewer story. Oh, it's I think there's a patreon special [3447.46] Jack: Only if you want to see the footage you have to scroll back on the paper. You have to pay one pound. Yeah [3453.22] Jack: I think it's a three dollar. Oh, we went crazy with this [3458.26] Frank: Yes, three dollar we do used to do even what are you looking forward to over the next few years you got anything like oh [3465.14] Frank: That is that is a thing [3466.58] Stephen: I'm kind of looking forward to you know [3468.5] Stephen: When I start getting into this dji was still making flight controls and stuff, right? [3473.7] Stephen: and i'm kind of looking forward to the open source side like stepping up and [3477.86] Stephen: Not getting accused of being too complex and too awkward and just having like a nice easy path for beginners [3484.74] Stephen: I'd like to see that happen. I think we've we've had stuff like open vtx and [3490.58] Stephen: Beta flight um a 132 blue jay [3494.02] Stephen: All these projects express our rest all kind of come together to say like you can notice the tail build an aircraft [3500.98] Stephen: And have it as an open source system [3503.54] Stephen: Digital is still a bit of a problem [3505.54] Stephen: But open hd ruby hd but not the high performance stuff. But yeah, i'm just looking for more of a [3511.46] Stephen: But you you could go and be a racer now and do it all open source and i'd like to see them all start to kind of [3517.7] UNKNOWN: join on to be [3519.94] Stephen: A cohesive entity, which is something that i've heard the developers are interested in as well [3524.98] Frank: So i'm looking forward to that and now that you can like call yourself a developer, right? [3529.38] Stephen: Now that you've written about a dozen lines of c-code. Yeah, but it's it's in there now decade. Um, yes [3536.82] Frank: you've had your [3538.58] Stephen: Commits yeah, i've written a lot of python a lot of ruby fair amount of javascript [3543.78] Stephen: But embarrassingly little amounts of c since about 2002. I've got you know, I've got p.r. In this movie [3549.94] Stephen: Which is nice. So adding the dgi on screen display functionality. Thanks to lemon for doing a nice video talking about that [3557.3] Stephen: Um, yeah, you can set black in beta flight on the nightly releases now and it shows your warnings [3564.18] Stephen: It puts some dots after which i'm aware about it appears that [3568.02] Stephen: For some reason the dpi goggles think the string is one character shorter than beta flight tells there ought to be [3574.5] Stephen: Uh, there isn't [3576.02] Stephen: A fix that that i'm trying to get in [3578.1] Stephen: So yeah, so I might try and get a bit more involved in the software side myself [3581.7] Stephen: Although it I still think the express. I will actually probably be the only good frame over [3585.78] Stephen: But it's very interesting all the same [3589.3] Koel: Cole yes, what are you looking forward to in that few years? [3594.02] Frank: Uh [3595.46] Frank: Learning more technical skills, uh, but like building stuff in like the tuning stuff flying stuff [3602.5] Frank: Just like tricks. I would say [3605.06] Koel: building and tuning but also tricks and [3608.5] Koel: I'm excited to see sort of any of the new sort of kiss stuff [3612.34] Koel: It's going to be coming up. I don't know if there is going to be any new stuff in the next little while but [3616.9] Koel: i'm flying old kiss v1, so [3620.26] Frank: You know [3620.98] Frank: Just just wait until steven's completely rewritten like beta flight to have a kiss mode. Yeah [3626.5] Stephen: Yeah, I think they did that already. I tried to put kiss for instance [3629.14] Stephen: Oh, they're just disable you disable anti-gravity and then it kind of flies like kiss [3635.62] Koel: Yeah, that's pretty much it just kind of [3638.82] Koel: Keep going and keep learning and see what new tech comes out. I'm gonna skip that tony [3644.98] Frank: What are you looking forward to over the next few years surviving? [3648.52] Stephen: Oh [3650.52] Frank: Nothing like like some kind of like x-class eses or [3656.12] Frank: Like a new thing's becoming cheaper [3658.6] Frank: Oh, that would be a rare. Yeah, that'd be nice, but I don't think it's gonna happen [3663.16] Frank: I'd like x-class to get a bit bit more popular. It'd be nicer [3667.4] Frank: Um, I mean we've actually had like the beginnings of a series of events happening [3672.6] Frank: Well, yeah, we've had like seven pilots now at one event. So that's much better than a couple [3681.96] Stephen: Because right now it's APD or nothing, you know, it's just super competition start to push down the prices [3688.12] Frank: That'd be nice [3690.12] Jack: Yeah, that's that's about it. Really kiss ultra being at the end stop [3695.0] Frank: Yeah, that'd be nice. Yeah [3697.16] Koel: Um, yeah, I wonder what actually I wonder whether they're gonna do after the drill guest next year. That's interesting [3702.52] Koel: I'm kind of wondering about that [3705.16] Frank: Um because gonuts was saying that they're looking [3709.48] Frank: To maybe hold it at a different site like having done this one this event and the previous event at the same [3715.8] Frank: Uh location maybe finding another location and they've hired a team to climb on the roofs [3721.56] Stephen: So they got back the quads from this year. They also got back some quads from last year [3727.4] Stephen: They should call it quits now while they're putting the ones close [3730.84] Jack: Yeah, oh is that how they've done it they hired [3735.32] Jack: Yeah climbers [3737.64] Jack: The team well they had cherry pickle and stuff [3739.88] Jack: Did they also get his back? You know the one in the pot impossible. I'm sure they'll see it. Did you get yours back? [3747.24] Frank: Yeah, i'm gonna i'm gonna stick the patrons up and why don't I do that? Jack what are you looking forward to over the next few years? [3753.64] Jack: Uh, [3754.76] Jack: kiss ultra [3756.52] Jack: Being available or getting even better [3759.56] Jack: um [3760.36] Jack: Because I hope that my friends that are off does really well [3764.52] Jack: um [3765.56] Jack: the [3766.92] Jack: battle or [3769.0] Jack: Like, you know the sort of digital stuff settles down and we all kind of know what to get what works [3776.44] Jack: So we can kind of move over and there's no more, you know, what channel you're on and [3782.04] Jack: You know the cleaner cleaner video for all of us [3786.04] Frank: Just plugging in and not a position yell [3788.44] Frank: Yeah [3790.76] MULTIPLE: Just try getting [3792.52] MULTIPLE: There on that channel. This knows you're on that channel [3795.16] Frank: So put it on knows the power that the other guys on and then you can just go [3800.92] Frank: Yeah, that would be yeah [3803.72] Jack: Yeah, i'm i'm glad to see it was really nice to be in an event [3808.68] Jack: But there wasn't any races and it was like that sort of like high stress [3813.4] Jack: strum [3814.76] Jack: how stressed head kind of [3817.64] Jack: You know races giving you [3819.48] Jack: like [3820.84] MULTIPLE: Um freestyle [3831.0] Jack: Yeah, like, you know freestyle [3833.48] Jack: You know actually has a pulse now here. So that was nice and you know, i'm looking forward to more of that [3839.24] Jack: Were you representing freestyle by finding backwards round the track? I was rebelling [3845.24] Jack: You know and they really didn't like [3847.88] Frank: Oh my god [3849.48] Frank: Because even when the uh race organizers went to lunch and said there was like no racing going on and jack [3855.96] Frank: Was like can I do a freestyle bit? Can I now do some freestyle? [3860.12] Frank: And you're allowed like maybe half a pound and you're like that's enough of that [3864.36] Frank: You're not going around the track [3868.12] Jack: What did it was my the cameras back in the day [3872.2] Jack: My brightness and contrast was set up for [3875.88] Jack: Rainy and by the time I was allowed to then do freestyle [3880.04] Jack: I couldn't see uh sunny and lovely took off and just know, you know, hslm77 [3886.92] Jack: I might as well have just [3890.36] Jack: Yeah, just taken my goggles off really [3893.56] Jack: Trying to freestyle lie this side [3895.88] MULTIPLE: And that's all we got time for we might be back next year [3900.52] Jack: Yeah, if we actually [3903.24] Jack: We will get to each other. We'll see you next week. Yeah [3906.84] Jack: Thank you to all our patreons. They've been scrolling at the bottom.
