Biggest draw for me is that I found a channel where the guy running it has multiple stories of accidentally running from the cops on one. Usually nosy Nellie's calling the law cause they don't understand and they can't pursue him in the air
When I save up for one and find a nice patch of nothing where I can pop off some rounds that might go completely sideways, I'll let y'all know if they're useful ๐คฃ
Definitely not, there's guides all over the place. Biggest issue is training. There's a specific feeling you gotta get used to and you have to have some actual muscle to get liftoff
My best friends dad has one of those powered parachutes. His chassis is way bigger than the one pictured though. Pretty loud, definitely no stealth entry
The paramotors are definitely fucking noisy. I would be curious to see if we can find a good stealth solution or if they can get high enough to recon without too much noise
And if they're not the mini they have to be FAA registered. Racing drones are much louder but arent limited by FAA regulations. No gps/tracking on most units and theyre DIY. Downfall is theyre much harder to control and the AV hardware is lacking unless youre paying big bucks
Iโve played around with some friends cheaper ones just fucking around in the back yard with them, but have absolutely zero expertise with the bigger ones
well if i had the resources i would say you'd really want more of a blockchain-style messaging system with the ability for groups to set their own permissions and level of discoverability. combine that with an easy way for barely-computer-literate folks to mirror a community site. kinda like how thepiratebay keeps itself up with tons of mirrors of the same data
All software requires proper hardware. Ham Radio has progressed significantly over the years and could probably support local servers via CHIRP. Private encrypted LAN servers running linux could also support local supply chains or people networks with digital communications and intel.
Sup everyone. Racecar building/engine assembly/welder and hopefully soon to be roll cage builder. Way things are going it looks like itโll be more armor than roll cages but ๐คท๐ผโโ๏ธ
Back to drones for a min. Def stay away from DJI. They control where you fly and track everything. Ready made rc sells everything you need to roll your own. Also check out tiny woop. They fit in the palm of your hand and have a camera that transmits to a video receiver. Also itโs not the motors that are noisy itโs the props. DJI props are about as quiet as you can get but still sound like bees. There are some pretty cheap bad ass planes that have long range and good cameras and can glide pretty far. Rmrc sells all that
I'm a GM certified master tech but i left that because if its not a pushrod V8 it was trash and i hated warranty, so i work on european/exotic shit now
