Drones have a lot of people worried about privacy, but they can be used for good as well as nefarious purposes. 100 small aircraft being launched skywards in formation has earned a new Guinness World Record for the Most Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) airborne simultaneously. Controlled on the ground by a crew using PCs with Intel software, the mass of drones lit up the night sky in sync to a live performance of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony and executed a stunning light show resembling a fireworks display.
“Drone 100” took place at Flugplatz Ahrenlohe, Tornesch , Germany , in November 2015. https://www.youtube.com/embed/mOBQXuu_5Zw ![]() |

Not bad, I've been right into " drones " as the media calls them for ages. The word drone is pretty much the equivalent of hoon for multirotor guys.
I fly fpv ( first person view ) so the image you see on this video is what i see through a pair of goggles, its the closest you will ever get to flying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZ7J4ig9fkU

this is the video that got me hooked... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRmlX6rrs2w I saw this and just knew I had to do it! I had only really been aware of the DJI stuff so watching this was a revelation at the time.... I have now spent way too much on it!

Anyone else get flashbacks from 'Close Encounters' when they watched that?
