These things are scary really, do airports have RCF signal jammers?

I think it's time the inventors invent a RCF auto hijack and evade system to be installed on all commercial aircraft.

It seems there are more hazards flying a drone then operator/mechanical/electrical failures, hawk attack:

RW....I reckon, in light of the 9-11 attacks, that many installations have many means to deny

drones any chance of being used as a weapon. We just don't read about them anywhere and

rightly so. Take a large hobby drone with some speed capability, long range & lifting ability of

say a couple kilos; and they're available now to the general public..Have some terrorist get one

and attach a couple kilos of semtex....don't really need to approach and aircraft on takeoff

climb or landing....how about refueling on the ground or pax embarkation/disembarkation.

That would be quite nasty. So I'm sure the "authorities" have the means in place already

to deny any drone approach and also to take out said drone and locate the pilot of said drone.

If that scenario ever plays out, hopefullu it never does, governments will simply ban drones

over a certain size, enforce severe penalties and or...as most likely is already insitu...a record

of every drone owners particulars in some computer...somewhere.

They's not cheap. At least a couple of hundred quid.

I'm surprised GoPro don't bring out these sort of accessories. GoPro drone, gimbals, deep dive housings . . .

I know the bloke's a gazillionaire but it would be make sense to offer this stuff to form a complete movie making package from deep under water to a thousand feet in the sky.

Good video SS, I have seen that guy in the yellow Lambo on videos before somewhere. Maybe the early YT GP vids...tried finding it to no avail.

[sunshine51]

RW...yeah it is a good video about the "car culture" in Japan. That Lambo must have cost him

much more than an arm & a leg! Freaking Amazing...

Here's another GP4K video about something close to my heart...Wild Mustangs.

A very long time ago when I was a kid we visited a friend of my fathers up in

Montana and I saw about 50+ wild horses running free. It was a sight I will never

forget. I saw a small herd of wild horses running free in Inner Mongolia back in

the 80's while filming there...another unforgettable sight. There is just something

about horses running free that gets me right where the good stuff should get anybody;

smack in the centre of the emotion generator!

Without further babble from me....

[Ace of Pop]

I dont thik ill get one.They seem to make Cars and Motorcycles CRASH.

[sunshine51]

Who Climbs Icebergs?

These guys do. And yes AoP...GP cameras may make cars & bikes crash just like they

seem to make icebergs disintigrate!....

These guys are crazy IMO....but it's my kind of crazy.

[kaorop]

i dont own one but do have a virb + 810

a snapshot from a vid and in thailand no less, check the grade! hence the speed or lack there of

[sunshine51]

^^ ^ Kaorop... This thread is not limited to GoPro Camera stuff only. Perhaps I should have

clarified this in the beginning since there are comparable cameras out there in the world.

However it is limited to cameras of the same type.

Neat frame grab from your camera...any vdo or link to it? You can post it here ya know.

[sunshine51]

Seems as though drones are being banned in LOS and in many places globally

unless the drones owner gets a license.

Anyway...A guy, A garden recliner, some baloons, some GoPro's & a shotgun.

What could possibly go wrong....

[sunshine51]

A skateboarding cat? Sure...why not!...

The plastic thingy that snap closes the casing for the GoPro broke , it is easy to remove and replace , yet I could not find the replacement part and I had to buy the whole new housing .

Don't GoPro do small spares ?

Thanks rhythmworx - after all the failed attempts to post this will be an anti-climax - but here it is .... GoPro Hero 2 on a selfie-stick 2X slow motion:

Take an otherworldly journey through Hang Son Doong, the world's largest cave, by both ground and air.

Filmed near the entrance and the first and second dolines (skylights) which are 2.5 and 3.5 km inside the cave respectively.
