"Find the traitor who put that ceiling up there. 😑"

[–] SpicyLizards@reddthat.com 21 points 17 hours ago

Well, someone's getting promoted to front line!

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 39 points 21 hours ago

Tbf if your good they aren't wasting your time with recruitment.

That said, why this guy thought that was a good idea.... Idk. Best case by being silly he's lowkey telling them to not join.

[–] Nastybutler@lemmy.world 15 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I have the same technique when I fly my drones indoors. Lucky for everyone I'm not in the armed services as a drone pilot though.

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 hours ago

Lucky for everyone including himself this guy is a recruiter, not actually flying the drones.

[–] Nasan@sopuli.xyz 12 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

One live payload away from being this guy.

[–] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 5 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Yo he just kept going LMAO. Wild. Good clearing technique boss.

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 3 points 12 hours ago

He brings out the bigger gun, says it's unloaded, and the kids all start going "PUT IT DOWN" Omfg I'm dying

[–] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 21 points 20 hours ago

This is clearly to demonstrate the durability of the ceiling. Built very strong material!

Aren’t the vast majority of these drone pilots running FPV?

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 6 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Flying line of sight is quite difficult. You wouldn't do that indoors either

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 3 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

It's wayyy easier to fly LOS than FPV when you're indoors, especially with a quad this size

[–] recklessengagement@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Disagree, way easier with a FPV headset than LOS

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

Indoors?? You're crazy lol

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 8 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

A tiny whoop maybe, but a full size one like this?

Mind you, I was a terrible pilot when I had one of these. I bought one that was specifically meant to be hard to break, and I still managed to wreck it after a few flights. It's an expensive hobby, if you suck!

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah man, FPV in a tight space is hard as hell and the bigger the quad, the smaller the space feels! LOS is almost always way easier if you can see it..assuming it's obvious which way is forward

And don't beat yourself up, crashes happen so it's an expensive hobby even if you DON'T suck.

If you ever want to get back into it, a mobula or meteor is like $100 and you can get a radiomaster pocket for $55. Throw in some batteries and you're flying for under $200!

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

You like LOS better? I felt like more of my video game motor skills transfer over better with FPV.

I haven't shopped around for a quad in a while, but I still love the idea of that freedom, the pure movement of it. Looks like the old whoop style is still around... Tempting!

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Oh no no, I almost exclusively fly FPV. I'm just saying LOS is way easier than FPV indoors

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 1 points 8 hours ago

That's probably true. I've never flown a full size one indoors, too much chance of hitting someone. Those prop lacerations are no joke!

[–] sepi@piefed.social 12 points 20 hours ago

Those boys are all dead, they just don't know it yet.

[–] tired_n_bored@lemmy.world 8 points 20 hours ago

Russian drone go fuck yourself

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 9 points 21 hours ago

Skill issue

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 5 points 20 hours ago

Lmao been there, dude. I've taken several chunks of drywall out of my ceiling with quad, albeit never at THAT speed.
