tkdguy Posted March 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2021 I had this thought of putting several of the elements together. Use these propellers with a few quadcopters painted with Musou Black. Maybe add a few more LEDs on the sides. Have the drones take off on a dark night. Let them freestyle a bit and race across a few hoops lit up with LEDS. Then they fly over people in black body suits spinning lightsabers. Maybe have a couple of lightsaber wielders do a mock battle as well. Add a few holograms and dancing robots. Music will be played with the laser harp and other instruments featured on this thread. Footage will be FPV and other cameramen, along with some light photography stills. Add some VFX to the footage. Yeah, I know this will never happen, but a guy can dream. I did try to explain it to my sister. She said it was too much sensory input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkdguy Posted May 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Something that hasn't been mentioned here yet is wingsuit flying. It may not have any fancy electronics, but consider the technology that allows the people to fly without a vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archer Posted June 19, 2021 Report Share Posted June 19, 2021 Remarkably little information on the company website and what was available was very well-hidden. On their largest board, the battery life is only 2 hours. There wasn't information on the battery life of the medium or small boards. If they get that up to a point where someone could do a whole afternoon on the water, I'd imagine these will become insanely popular. Still, the video of them going up the Mekong delta was inspiring. I could imagine those being used there or with a high-tech D-Day. Or Seal Team Six to the rescue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All dreams start out as impractical, until they're not. tkdguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One still needs decent decimation of the objects to make LODS to be able to populate a scene and render it in an economical amount of time. tkdguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
