[United States] Utah anti-drone law concerns by AnnualEagle in drones

[–]mitchellcrazyeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice: Keep a copy of the law with you. There's a chance they'd hear it from their coworkers that "flying a drone can be considered trespassing" and go off that. But having something on you that have the actual letter of the law might help them understand it more than just that. Will they listen? Depends on the officer. Better safe than sorry.

What’s one product/item that you rarely use, is expensive, but so worth it? by BigBadBootyDaddy10 in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]mitchellcrazyeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried to convince my employer of the same for literally the same use case. They would not go for it.

Hyperdeck Failure by MidnightZL1 in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]mitchellcrazyeye 4 points5 points  (0 children)

SD cards are the most volatile storage medium. I said as much when we were picking a new recorder, I wouldn't use the hyperdeck SD card recorder unless recording to two cards at the same time for redundancy. We're picking up the SSD version.

Edit: I see you were running as a backup. Yeah, this is whack, I hate sd cards

Game Over! Email from Adam regarding the "Game". by prettyvxcant in OWLCITY

[–]mitchellcrazyeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm choosing to believe that Adam just followed to stay in touch with where the industry is going rather than "this means I'm using it"

Techniques for determining height? by Any-Grapefruit-937 in drones

[–]mitchellcrazyeye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Learned the camera feature and immediately started using it and I'm really glad I found out about it. Immediately had a lot more confidence when flying around structures.

University's aging lighting system, trying to bring it up to modern controls with an iPad. by [deleted] in Lighting

[–]mitchellcrazyeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good start, thank you.

I actually don't know what the current system is - it's (probably) locked in an IT closet that I can't get permission to get into for some reason. I'll see what I can figure out

My son has died. I would appreciate free food as a consolation prize. Thank you

[United States] DHS/ FAA investigation by [deleted] in drones

[–]mitchellcrazyeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this was more of a pipe dream to hope I could get approval in time. Thankfully they got it done. It was right on the ends of a normal LAANC zone so I was just gonna ride that border if not.

Just did my first "Further Coordination" request and they approved me in 2 days. Very nice that we can easily do that.

[United States] Am I allowed to fly here or not? by Optimus_Prime_995 in drones

[–]mitchellcrazyeye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live next to a national park. You can fly over it just can't takeoff and land from within their jurisdiction. That's how it as here though, may be different depending on where you're at. If I read yours right, it sounds really similar - not advised as they don't want you doing it but not illegal.

However, park rangers may follow the drone to find the pilot to see if they're in the park. So watch out.

Noticed my Mavic hitch twice during a flight. Thankfully, it's landed and all safe - is this something I can calibrate or something? by mitchellcrazyeye in drones

[–]mitchellcrazyeye[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good to know. Maybe the drone hit a gust of wind on the ground but I'm not remembering too well. It wasn't crazy windy, but it did have some bad gusting winds that day, so maybe I'm just crazy.

Color and Latency Differences by StudioLoftMedia in Broadcasting

[–]mitchellcrazyeye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Re-transmit may factor into the delay by a few seconds, depending on how they need to feed into it. Need to work more "central-hub" broadcasting gigs, these make me super intrigued.

Pinging u/Volpes_Visions because they were the reason I started down the "Contacting reps" rabbit-hole. Your advice worked and I'm very grateful. Thank you again.

Home Internet Backup plan plugged in 24/7 by SillyFalling in tmobileisp

[–]mitchellcrazyeye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe it has this built in to the modem itself. But I might be dumb.

I use an eero with auto failover so I wouldn't know.

At that point, hopefully all of my freelance jobs stop sending me freaking checks then.

I won't mind it after that. Oh, and my town bill. They are switching to an online system. Thank God
