Raiding is pretty pathetic on EU RP servers too. There's like three Alliance guilds on AD that are doing mythic raids. I hate that my friends decided to move here. At least we're in one of the three guilds so we can actually do some content.


Fun fact some RP addons automatically change whatever you type to have an "accent" and if you use it in LFR or something where there's a bunch of people not from a RP server it sends them in to a frenzy. Honestly the one good thing about being on an RP server is people flip their poo poo over you being on an RP server. Combine that with the reported AddOn and my trolling is basically automated. It also helps if you're a tank because it's harder to convince people to kick a tank.

This is probably what being a small bird would look like. Shame it doesn't sound like a chorus of zippers being pulled up and down.

You're banking too hard on those curves and too late, causing you to lose a lot of momentum. You're not going to do well in the racing if you don't step up your maneuvers.

yeah i could carry more speed through if i hit the apexes tighter, but there are other things to worry about like lining up the next gate and not hitting tree branches/the ground.

still you're right, there's a ton i could do to lower my laptime here. if i were able to run 20-30 more batteries on this course i'm sure i'd bring it down by a few seconds.

how the gently caress do you spot those white arches so well? my old stupid eyes could barely make them out half the time.

the one before the tree chicane was tough for me. that's part of the reason why i missed it and crashed into it.

How big/long are the blades on those things? Do they even have blades?

I can't help picturing that American guy who got decapitated by his model helicopter, a couple of years ago, when it spun outta control.

props are 5" from tip to tip. there are 4 on this ship.

not lethal, but definitely not a good time if it hits you.

how much does it cost for a basic but effective drone/camera setup?

I may have missed it mentioned before, but what drone setups do you run? Is your racing one different than some of the other trick ones you've posted before?

if you tried to keep your budget low, you could jump all in from nothing for under $1000. the drone itself is probably in the $3-400 range.

they're the same types of drones, i have a bunch of different setups but they all fly similar. the differences are small.
