Lol wow really. I really live close to this metro station called CHU Centre Oscar Lambret, well look at 1:57 those grey cubes at the right , i live in one of those... :o Also "CHU", because it's close to one of the most competent hospital in the entire country.

Beno lifts are the best

This some great footage ben. Allthough I’m watching it in 1080p on an iPad screen. That drone has a pretty good camera the motion is pretty smooth.

[@jtkm]

Your videos are so cool, I really enjoy them!

[@LBSiUK]

I love this! I took a screen shot of one part of the video and put that as my wallpaper.

Have you got the rights for that content 😉

I love this background music

Nice video, BENO!

[@xMarto96]

Have you ever been to milan? Here we have two automated metro systems

[@TaylaHolland]

Wow! Awesome! Love that style. Not only are you’re videos amazing, I could watch them for hours on end (I do watch beno for hours)

[@BKL_Games]

I think with this drone you could make amazing videos like nice footage etc THAT WOULD BE AMAZING!

[@lukeef]

Agreed, Sadly there was drift, This made shots hard to be very cinematic, The race at 0:18 Should of been very smooth and cinematic. Due to this some shots where imperfect and not aligned as they should of been. The drift seems to be due to a software bug in the firmware as the was no wind and etc.

[@NACAFireAndSecurity]

Nice video! I like the drone footage, whoever flew that did a great job!

[@allrighter0413]

I’m kinda anxious that Slazo’s fans are just gonna go around your channel and raid the comments saying “wow cringe! Wow so much cancer!”

[@benolifts]

At least there is a delete button for comments like that.

[@drdeadbeat1604]

I subscribed to this channel after seeing it on Slazo!

[@LemonHunter]

allrighter 04 I’m from slazo and already I am a loyal fan of beno lifts

[@ZZ9ProductionsOFFICIAL]

allrighter 04 I just had a look at the video in question and all I can say is he doesnt understand elevator enthusiasm...so Slazo is not getting a sub from me but elevator enthusiasts will get my eternal subscription as and when I find them

[@g4yb0ybl1tz7]

Honestly, I'm here from slazo, but this is my first vid and I'm entertained. Checking out elevators isn't entertaining as much as drone racing is

[@trainluvr]

Its about time some one did this drone shit over rapid transit. You and your crew are bad ass!

[@petitgarcon5722]

Nice👍😃😃Beno

[@smellsnice9735]

Im curious how you manage to survive these stuff

[@alexb1839]

Any other Slazhoes? Also, I wonder how many new subs Beno got from him?

[@LemonHunter]

[@jamiewatkins7517]

What drone is this Ben?

[@germanhdvonatmosstudiosinc5567]

Nice

[@RedGamingCZ]

why is the VAL system so slow? Why did they use rubber tires instead of classic rails, is there any significant advantage besides bigger gradient? But I like the automation though

[@phox4186]

flagisallus It seems slow because he drone is high, but these trains really are fast

[@benolifts]

Slow? I find it very fast and efficient. It accelerates at 3 mph/sec. VAL 206 goes about 34 mph and VAL 208 goes about 38 mph. The stations are fairly close together and the speed seems ok for its situation. The most impressive thing is how quick it serves the stations. No other metro system can beat the efficiency of this. The most amazing thing is for the situation, nowhere else would run a metro like this. The trains are small but run very frequently. Most places would long trains not running very often. The VAL is such a clever design that it saves the cost of large infrastructure and uses the technology to its best with very regular trains, which is better for passengers as there are very short wait times. No other medium capacity metro has waiting times this short.

[@RedGamingCZ]

guess you're right, in other parts it accelerates to higher speeds. But the fast acceleration and braking and serving stations in general is amazing, i've never seen an automatic metro system stop so fast. (automatic because in Prague, the drivers open the doors even before the train stops, not very safe...)

[@benolifts]

It was going top speed in this video. The drone was going about 30 mph, and was overtaken by VAL 208 at about 38 mph. The VAL is the fastest system of its class. It isn't trying to be a full size metro, it is a light rail system. The design of it is very unique. Compare it to something like the DLR or an express tram, the VAL is many times more efficient than its rivals. Also there are full size versions such as line 14 in Paris which goes 50 mph and is just as efficient. Also pre-doors on trains is safe. The train should be completely stopped before the doors open fully. There is not reason for trains not to pre-door. What annoys me is trains like the London overground have to come to a full stop, then waits a few seconds, then the passenger has to press the button before the doors open. It is so inefficient. What is dangerous is pre-start on trains, such as on the trams in Romania. I bet the driver isn't fully watching the doors when he starts the tram while the doors are still closing.

[@AlexGale]

Is this your done? not the 1st shitty youtube taking 5 hours to update xD

[@waterlooblaky59]

Impossible

race the DLR in london

[@LinxFox]

Woah nice!.

[@DrHorse-px4yy]

I'm guessing you were on the metro while controlling the drone

[@benolifts]

No, that would be a guaranteed way to lose the drone.
