MikeD Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 Yes! And with you and Brasso in the stands they'll be assured of enough hot air to keep them aloft! Ba dum bump. Tip your waitress. I think the proper quote is to try the waitress and tip the veal. 2 Quote
BRASSO Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) Yes! And with you and Brasso in the stands they'll be assured of enough hot air to keep them aloft! Ba dum bump. Tip your waitress. You do look sort of cute in your waitress outfit, but please go and quickly refill the water glasses for everyone at my table now, if you want a generous tip. Edited June 10, 2014 by BRASSO Quote
ChuckH Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) Hm. Do any of these have a stable enough hover mode and enough juice in the batteries to simulate the ever-changing angle/position of the judges' box for the length of a run-through? (Both as a practice target for the horns, and a point to get video from.) Edit: And by "ever-changing," I mean from show-to-show. The drifting press box won't be implemented by DCI until the 2016 season. Edited June 10, 2014 by ChuckH Quote
troon8 Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 The Cavaliers have joined the party! Looks like they'll be using their drone fleet to deliver Hebrew National hotdogs to corps members directly on the field as they play! Saves valuable rehearsal time currently wasted on meal breaks! Quote
flammaster Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 It's not drum corps anymore! Back in the day we used Estes rockets and micro film none of this propeller and video crap! 1 Quote
ChuckH Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 It's not drum corps anymore! Back in the day we used Estes rockets and micro film none of this propeller and video crap! Pfft! That's amateur stuff. We had an operative in Moscow stealing photos that the Soviet spy satellites happened to catch of our rehearsals. Quote
BRASSO Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) jezz, when I marched, the only thing hovering over my head at practice were mosquitos and other flying pesky critters. Can these drones spray insecticide when they're airborne, or would the EPA have a fit ? Edited June 10, 2014 by BRASSO Quote

Oh please. I'd set a camera timer on a Polaroid, toss it straight up in the air, catch the camera, and then synchronize a catch of the picture as it slowly drifted down in the wind a few yards away from where I took the shot in the direction I was marching. All while I spun a rifle. 2 Quote
