Is it just me, or do those vessels seem way too close together? Besides being a nice photo op, is there a point to being that jammed together in a straight line? I would think should something fail on one of the ships, it doesn't leave you a whole lot of move for an evasive maneuver.

Since you are getting all political, did you also notice the 25% unemployment in Spain? What good do fast train do when 1/4 of the populace doesn't have enough money to ride them.

I see a 4 minute video, which is probably taken from a 10-15 minute flight time. Which is a very normal flight time. I don't see what the big deal is here. But if you like, show me the $1500 battery need to fly for 15 minutes in a Phantom, when the stock battery is capable of easy 20 minute flight times.

Maybe at one point in time you knew FPV costs, but you are way off base now. What on earth batteries and controller are you using that could cost $3500? You can tell from the first few seconds of video the guy is using a Phantom Transmitter, so I assume he is using something like a Vision 2+. So total setup should

Too bad it is not America's best looking car, yet alone SRT's best looker.

Shouldn't facts be "highly regarded" no matter what the subject matter?

You should have ran that headline by your friends over at Jalopnik first, because that is no Humvee.

As long as it is not for a commercial business there is still no issue with it. However the memo does aim to restrict hobby aircraft to LOS flying, so FPV is now not allow.

If both cars are going slower (25mph) then there shouldn't be any increase in rear ending as opposed to both cars going faster (40mph). I really don't see how there is going to be a change here.

The bill isn't designed to reduce rear-ending events, so I don't see what that has to do with anything.

That is all really interesting. Flying quadcopters for fun, I am fairly familiar with all types of interference, though by no means to your level. Out of curiosity, for the machinery you deal with, do you analyze the spectrum environment and make adjustments for each piece of machinery? Or do just design a machine

Last time I check, there is not a single high frequency trader using a mobile wireless connection, so their direct connection to the NYSE and NASDAQ are unrelated to this discussion.

You really have no idea how this technology works. Cars are not going to be communicating through "your internet connection" because the latency would so much as to make most of the technology useless. Direct radio frequency communication is the only real way to let this technology perform at its full potential.

Don't sparks just mean the car is not setup properly, or the coarse has a poor surface? Call me crazy, but wouldn't everyone want to avoid creating spark.

That is a nice time frame that ignores the 12 US aircraft carriers that were sunk during WWII. Which just happens to be the last time there was a major sea war.

I noticed the same thing. Being in the stadium and looking down it looks like a dump. A sea of bumpers on top of the roofs.

Now playing

The O7 bridge in Londerzeel, Belgium, was torn down and replaced in only four days, according to a translation of the Youtube video description, which is absolutely incredible by American standards. Sure, the O7 might not be the prettiest bridge in the world, but its destruction and rebuild looks great.

Jesus, is there anything that doesn't "amaze", "awe" or "stun" you these days. You are the single reason I have cut back on reading Giz. Not every article title has to be sensationalized.

No, I just assume everything in Sweeden is blue and yellow.
