welcome to AR drone jousting so uh slick
0:11
and I are going to both be using tablets slick hold up your tablet so this is
0:15
going to be the ultimate iPad versus Android tablet Showdown cuz I'll be
0:21
using the iPad to control my AR drone and he'll be using the Samsung Galaxy
0:25
Tab 10.1 to control his AR drone we're basically going to take them off
0:31
hover them up in the air and then fly them as fast as we can towards each
0:34
other hoping that they like Collide and
0:38
then we're going to see which one stays in the air or doesn't or gets damaged
0:42
the least and that will be the winner so um yeah if you were looking for a
0:47
phenomenally expensive hobby that has absolutely no purpose whatsoever this AR
0:53
drone Jousting is for you all you need is two AR Drones two tablets and an
0:59
inordinate amount of spare time so I'm going to stand over here no I'm not
1:04
going to stand there I'm going to stand uh I'll stand here and let's take him
1:14
off so leave it at the default
1:17
height ready and
1:22
go oh they missed okay okay turn them around bring it down along the path
1:33
bring it down nice and low and then bring yours over
1:45
here okay turn it around so that it faces
1:56
me and slick as a crappy pilot
2:01
okay ready bring it up a little
2:08
higher all right well iPad wins round
2:12
one okay round
2:20
two and
2:24
go oh just miss
2:33
hey here we go let's try
2:46
again
2:54
go all right let's see who is the big
2:58
winner someone lost a the camera and
3:01
their Hull and uh that would have been me I
3:06
wonder if she still
3:10
flies um I think Android's the winner
3:14
for this one folks thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe to lius
3:18
Tech tips for more well we don't do too much like this but there you go
3:34
so Slick's Android power drone is still uh perfectly capable of flight 100%
3:40
intact everything is a okay the iOS powered drone has been
3:45
through a lot the lens snapped right off
3:48
the camera although it's possible that I'll be able to glue this back on and
3:52
it'll just work as long as I get the positioning just right the hull came off
3:56
and seems to have lost some of its structural integrity that split wasn't
4:00
there before so now it's uh pretty split apart and uh I think the big winner
4:06
today is slick with his Android powered
4:09
AR drone and uh now now we're actually done there we go I hope I can repair
4:14
this what a stupid Hobby
