Drones vs. Windows

Let’s see how badly we can smash up some windows using kwads! All stunts performed in a controlled environment, do not attempt at home.

Great video! Now that drones have defeated Windows, you should see how they do against Linux.

[@Franksdad_deanmartinonrepeat]

Should have teamed up with slomo guys on this one!

[@JulioDoMal]

that would be epic! the last impact was amazing

[@HatfieldCW]

I think that a lot, that would be a good relationship to cultivate, although near as I can tell the Slomo Guys work about twelve hours a year on their KZbin channel. The Corridor collaboration was good, you should look into doing more KZbin collabs, it's a fun and wholesome way to introduce outsiders to the hobby.

[@matheson2934]

so wed be able to see the raw speed when tommy runs in to hit stop recording XD. hes just a blur!

[@lilman227]

They should do it again

[@ArmattanQuads]

Such an honor to see our work put to the test here. Thanks for the kind words, too, guys. Means a whole lot. A massive thank you to all of you. :)

[@falcon2666]

This is basically rotor riot + dude perfect reactions+ budget slow mo guys lol

[@illpro2]

Hands down my favorite episode. It has a Mythbusters vibe to it. I love it.

[@slipperysebastian]

I love this video but it also is killing me watching these quads die haha

[@ummagawdFPV]

They went down for a great cause! ;)

[@kennelson751]

What's the final tally of damage taken by the quads? I want to know if any of them survived? @@ummagawdFPV

[@ummagawdFPV]

@@kennelson751 just motors and camera lens!

[@JoshuaBardwell]

The quads barely died. Total tally is like 2 or 3 motors and the camera lenses kept popping off.

[@muchthump]

Not surprised no frames broke. I smacked a steel flagpole at full speed with my Chameleon Ti and I scarred the flagpole. Quad bounced off with no discernable damage to the titanium. Battery pack was complete pancake and it hit so hard the vtx antenna ripped off.

[@wild_lee_coyote]

This is why you need to be aware of your environment when you are flying. Think of what this can do to a person. Don’t be the one that gives quads a bad name. They are KZbin professionals, don’t try that at home. Fly safe and smart.

[@jacobshepherd3997]

Wild_Lee Coyote I nearly had a big oopsie when I was flying a few weeks ago. I checked the whole park visually, and then once I got into the air I did a slow lap to check again. Then once I had flown about half a pack I shoot a gap and fly 10 ft over someone’s head. Which scares the crap out of me, and of course them. Long story short I went over to the guy and apologized and it turns out he had been sitting by one of the trees in the woods on the edge of the park as he was a bird watcher and was walking over to see who was scaring away all the birds 😅😅. Moral of the story is instead of just doing a visual check, I should have done a walk around as I couldn’t see that gentleman behind that tree

[@paulriggs42]

The media are bad enough with drone paranoia e.g. Gatwick dronegate...... this just gives the media retards more evidence that drones are dangerous and should be registered/banned/licensed......

Fly safe but do not forget: the exact same damage on a windshield or window can occur from one quarter-sized pebble thrown by hand. A lot more if the pebble is thrown by a movin car tire. ;)

[@jamesparoline3757]

@@paulriggs42 Thats the first thing that came to my mind as soon as I seen this video

[@maffettastic]

This is the best video ! Epic editing Christian !! Dope crew with some live energy! Love love love

Wanna watch the crashes frame by frame? In KZbin, pause the video and use , and . to skip frames :D Like if you learned something today!

[@LeDribFPV]

[@MrRobert70432]

Love it RR

[@KittFPV]

SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!! I love that you used one of Jeff's songs too! Really cool how you could see the battery maintain momentum as it rips from the kwad on the first shot while the rim takes all the kwads impact and stops it in it's tracks. Kinda surprised by the little shards of the front windshield dusting everything inside on the van shot. And that back window smash was EPIC!!!!! Gotta love Armattan Frames :)

NOW THAT'S AN AD I LOVE WATCHING WITHOUT FORWARDING THE VIDEO. FPV CHANNELS SHOULD SPONSOR OTHER DRONES COMPANIES AND NOTHING ELSE

[@kadebulow887]

Just bought your new Blaster Motors, so excited to try them out!

[@bwest0179]

You guys honestly do insane things! I love the video guns vs drones. Amazing content

[@DoRC]

Somehow i feel like this video is going to get used by anti drone people to show how "dangerous" they are. Given the recent hysteria im not sure i would have released this.

[@noname-wo9yy]

To be fair I played cricket and have seen windows get broken from the cricket ball and have been knocked unconscious batting against a moderate speed bowler. So drones no more dangerous then these ball sports.

[@tentative_flora2690]

When the robot uprising happens. Cars won't be safe places to hide.

Very nice episode. It reminds me good old times of RR when you published Drones vs Guns! Good work guys! Thank you!

[@potjnkye86]

Best episode ive seen since ive been watching

[@TheMadmacs]

first up, awesome flying jeff, am completely shocked at how it went through the glass, i thought the house window woulda stopped it, and for sure a windshield would at least stop it from being a danger to anybody in the car unless it was a perfect hit like car going fast and quad going fast at perfect angle, and even then i thought it might do better.

[@rocketronfpv5654]
