Great project! Glad I'm part of it

[@kevgits]

Great listening in. I can't wait to be part of this project. Q3 sounds so far out. I'll wait but I really pray that they can find a way of ramping up production.

[@LarenzoJ]

Sub earned my Cali DePin Dudes- just a Canadian soon to be mapping sensation w/the Bee here on Vancouver Island :)

[@InFocusPhotos]

Fabulous show, I'm waiting for my first gen to arrive, hopefully soon. I was wondering if there is traffic ( Chicago area ) would it be better to have camera out the side? Can you use shots out the front in bumper to bumper traffic?

[@DewiiEsq]

I would do front facing first

GET THAT HONEY 🍯🐝

[@davidpooley5676]

In Brisbane Australia NO options for term payment. Shame for I want to buy two units for my courier van I pump out 800 - 1000 km a week around Brisbane north and south I guess I will just need to save up. I look forward to future developments.

[@gladrags666]

if i connect the wifi model to my mobile phone hotspot while driving will it upload in real time?

[@TheGrizlyOne777]

I think you need to get a battery in the bee. Even if it's only 30 mins worth; having to have your car on to finish the upload is a pita and contrary to the "set and forget" . Yes, if you're LTE that's a moot point, but having to have LTE to make it truly "saf" seems a bit limiting. Also, on the second bee connecting to the first - surely that's a no brainer? A Hivemapper intracar mesh sotospeak. And lastly, what a refreshing change to hear Merkans talking in metres!! 😉😉

[@TyvanTV]

Hello helium baby!!!

[@boz989]

Are the higher earnings you will receive for the lte feature worth the cost of activating a SIM card for the unit ?

[@NVNuno]

10000 bee ordered so you guys made around 4 450 000$ in devices sold. Nice!

[@TheGrizlyOne777]

Somewhat disappointed that I've ordered what now seems to be an obsolete device before it's even shipped (the HDC) so now I have two paperweights on the way? 😒

[@SoulReaver]

Magnets tend to be much more reliable in my experience, please make it magnet based.

[@dukeatI]

100% they are delaying the shipments of their orders to get as many upgrades as possible which wont ship for months then whining about cameras selling at bigh prices because nobody can get them.

[@KR-uz7mo]

Customer service won't get back to me about switching my existing orders

[@Tirrendale]

I also need this. (edited) They just upgraded the order. 3-12-24

[@jimliacone1832]

I'm looking to join . Can we do 360 ?

[@_claypool_]

How do one joins the discord group of hivemapper?

[@SRTSwift]

On their website at the very bottom of the page you’ll see a discord button

[@rainbash81-ttv95]

the only reason i didnt get the lte is cause cellular is crap here and inconsistent, its just slower, i feel my cam wont be able to upload everything before i turn off the car at the end of the trip. if it could have a battery so it stay on for couple hours after to provide as a buffer, that could fix my current issue. and the helium plan is only the states, otehr countries dont have the same networks.

[@rainbash81-ttv95]

looks ike you may have answered some of this at the 34 minute mark

[@juliandavies1974]

They need to get rid of the 100m trim. If your doing start stop delivering, and can't power the camera... your knackered.

[@AHMEDOP450]

Sir that Thursday hivemapper didnot give us money in phantom wallet why sir please tell me its a very good company in Pakistan

[@jimliacone1832]

I can help with more use case real world utility and adoption

[@malikihsan65]

Hello everyone I hope your doing well. Please solve my problem Ai map use from me But problem Oops something went worng Trying to refreshing page. Please solve my problem please ❤

[@STAYGR33N]

What if you used SCP for your DATA storage??

[@notanother22]

SCP doesn't compute that is why now go away.

[@STAYGR33N]

@notanother22 ahh okay gotcha 😉

[@danb459]

Every Tesla on the road could disrupt this business model overnight. Question is…would they?

[@Hivemapper]

The old this big company can disrupt you argument.

[@TheGrizlyOne777]

A further point - "personal" value from the device(s) depends on where you live/drive. It's illegal to record any third party in Portugal so the "personal value" side of the bee is of no use at all.

[@wimbrems7091]

you guys suck upgrading cameras without asking the client what he wants and by doing that set back the order a couple off months im glad im out

[@GeraldineParker-u7x]

Hello helium baby!!!
