The off topic thread #2

That's not too bad. How durable is it? I'm guessing I'd crash a few times too - hopefully designed to take a few crashes lol.



I think I saw something about that as well. Just goes to show how polarising he is that so many are seemingly voting purely to oppose him (not that he necessarily support Clinton). I've seen a few people say they aren't voting for Clinton but rather voting against Trump.

Yeah it comes with rotor guards which require assembly. It's reasonably durable as it is light and the only things subject to damage are the rotor blades which are protected unless you crash the drone upside down. That's only possible in the advanced flight control mode which allows full 360 degree loops. I haven't attempted this yet

i think to get to the top you have to be a little corrupt anyway. hillary is just good at hiding it given her experience over the decades with bill.
hopefully if she wins she give monica another chance to redeem herself

That's good to hear - are the rotors dangerous? I keep imagining having my fingers cut or something.

Let me know when you work up to barrel rolls and loops.

Yeah the rotors can cause injury if you get near them while they are operating. You have to turn off the remote before picking up the drone. I'll send you videos once I can do barrell rolls

I see that top of the line drones go for 15k!! Thy require a pilot license for flight above 400ft altitude, have a range of 8kms and have GPS fly to features. I'd be shitting myself flying a 15k drone!!!

is there anywhere you can watch all the us election stuff like sbs?

You should be able to stream it from somewhere. I'm watching on BBC. ABC News 24 maybe?

ABC 24 would have suff, CNN will have stuff (on Youtube), Channel 9 is doing it all day. Literally just turning on your TV would give you your answer.

15k?? Sweet Lord! You could buy a cheap car for less than that!

Just saw this on facebook - hope you're not this chap haha.

Bloke Faces Huge Fine For Using Drone To Pick Up Bunnings Sausage

A Victorian man could be paying thousands of bucks for a Bunnings sausage.. or, his laziness.. after sending a drone to pick up a sanga on his behalf.


The Sunbury man posted video of the pick up on YouTube, showing the drone leaving his house and heading to the Bunnings carpark while he lounged in a hot tub.

The Civil Aviation Safety Authority has confirmed the man's being investigated for safety breaches.

There are reports the man could cop a fine of up to $9000.

My inlaws have a $7k drone they use to take videos off their fishing boat when they go up north(Karratha area). Takes stunning vids. They are on their second one as my father inlaw dumped one into the ocean trying to land on top of the boat.

I don't want to sound stoopid(heaven forbid) but will the yanks have a result today?

Apparently Latino voters are turning out in huge numbers and voting against Trump. Traditionally in the past they haven't cared about the election too much.

Apparently turnout is low across the board is what I'm hearing.

Record high WR.....record high early vote too.

Clinton looks to have Florida. Trump needs a miracle in Ohio.

i dont get the hoo haa bout trump. is he not just a more polished version of bush?

There's a lot of fear about him because there is always a fear of the unknown.
Got to be brave in such times and vote for change. The UK did it with Brexit, can the yanks do the same with Trump? Hope so

Not sure where you're hearing that, turnout has been huge.

The unknown?

The dude is a racist, misogynistic piece of shit. There's fear about him because of the things he has said during the election campaign.
