So many missed opportunities.
It's like you hate fun.


What drone is gud?

Irresponsible flying and recklessness

>Irresponsible flying and recklessness

Give me a fucking break.

You're talking about objects that weigh half a pound at most and travel at speeds that mostly stay well below the highway speed limits which idiotic, cellphone-drunk grannies are routinely allowed to wildly exceed while they weave their multi-ton EscaladUVs through heavy traffic.


Some dude wants to fly a toy around people? Who gives a shit as long as it stays below the sound barrier.

>>58487588
Yea, I'm sure the 1 pound+ piece of carbon fiber wouldn't hurt dropping 60mph onto people's heads.

>>58487588
>what are propellers

>>58487651

Little to no mass.

I'm going hyperbolic to make a point.

The point is that those people are in FAR more danger going to and from whereever-the-fuck the Drone Menace is endangering their scalps and lives. It's a question of perspective, not a question of responsibility.

>>58487686
Yea an AUW of 603 grams is nothing! I'm sure you wouldn't mind being hit with that from 150ft freefall. That's easily enough force to kill someone.

He's a good pilot, but I'm afraid of noobs getting inspired by his flying. A quad can definitely be dangerous though and I'd never dive a building above people.
Nice digits btw.

>>58487567
Nice setup, great for getting into the hobby :)

Yeah well, you go ahead and start compiling those ever-growing quadcopter-related-fatality-statistics.

I'll just go ahead and keep an eye on the meteorite-related-fatality-statistics and we'll see which goes up faster.

>>58487635

As someone who rides a motorcycle I can tell you how surprising it is just how much a small thing can sting when it hits you at 70mph.

/nodronz/ fag here, is it realistic to mount & program a controller to a drone and control it via my computer & a 4G network?

Shouldn't pose any great difficulty.
Check out Ardupilot. Just what it sounds like; open source autopilot for various types of hobby aircraft.
