I would've fucked that kid up for messing with my drone. Those things are to expensive to mess with.

Because the first rule of Renaissance Club is we don't talk about Renaissance Club.

First looks more like a battle at an SCA event than renfest. last clip is from Smartereveryday about the arrow paradox.

The arrow paradox was super interesting...

9 years ago | Likes 12 Dislikes 0

If an arrow hits a drone that doesn't exist yet, does the owner get their money back?

The arrow paradox?

9 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

It's about the way the arrows flex in flight around the arm of the bow to hit the target inline with the bow arms

With a camera. It's kind of a suicide mission and the mirror drew the short straw...

what about the camera used to take a picture of said mural? double standards af

He thought the drone was a dragon, flown by somebody who hadn't bought a ticket.

No no, this is just an extremely detailed mural someone made by hand, of the less detailed mural showing the heroic deed. Muralception!

It was shot with a telephoto lens from the other side of the fence.

9 years ago | Likes 25 Dislikes 0

The angle from which the photo is taken tells me that is not true.

It's actually even better. The guy apologized and then they worked together to have drone "dragon slaying" the next year

I believed he replaced the guys drone too right?

Yeah, paid in full

Did he? I don't remember the full story so that might be what happened

Cause the mural isn't of him, he clearly threw an axe not a spear.

its a webm, you can access the controls and go frame by frame. its a "short-spear" with a felt/foam blunt tip.

You'd need to gear up....

Depends if the drone was even allowed there. Ppl fly drones in "no drone areas" all the fucking time and can be annoying twats about it.

9 years ago | Likes 34 Dislikes 2

If I remember correctly, the drone was sanctioned by the festival. They had problems non permitted drones in the past, explaining the spear.

It wasn't in the rules. The dude who threw was at fault.

depending on where this is you would be in way more trouble for invasion of privacy, but good luck hitting a guy in chain/plate.

Not only that, but there's like no limits on airspace currently. Wide latitude with drones currently.

That's not true. There is a huge restriction on drones. Restrictions around airports, highways, people, and building etc. and there is

No expectation of privacy in a public space. If you are in public people can freely record you without your consent.

Don't go to public places if you want privacy, dumbass. That's like going to a rock concert and asking them to turn down the music.

What makes you think this was public? Actually rather unlikely as everybody is wearing a costume.

Because it is.. They can make rules to not allow recording, but they'd have to specifically say it. Without those rules it's fine.

into trouble just for operating drones over privately owned land even though all they filmed was forest. Depends on the laws in your area.

The number of attendants doesnt change the fact that You need permission to operate recording devices. Hell in my country drone users got

You don't need permission to record. It's a public space. If there were rules saying you couldn't, THEN it's an issue.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Do you know where this is? Because I see no indication that this isnt private property.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

In the US, the standard is "reasonable expectation of privacy"; in a public space, you don't have one so recording is legal by default (1/2)

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

If the event is private it can have a no recording rule though (eg concerts), and they can kick you out if you violate that rule (2/2)

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

At least in the US, if you're in a public area, you're allowed to record away. Fairs don't usually own the property their on, either.

9 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 3

Faires are usually on private property, and usually charge admission, forming a contract that may have a "no recording" clause.

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

I'm not sure about where you are, but the PA, MD, and NY Renn Faires all own their property. They allow recording though.
