Slipstream showday event
A couple of days ago, together with the rest of the Slipstream team we hosted a showday. It was part of the local VOKA Open Bedrijvendag. It was a blast! We split up into several teams covering tasks.
We had one team explaining what Slipstream does and how productions are organized. We had a few simulators set up so people could try flying FPV drones for themselves. Then we had another spot set up where people could try to fly a basic quadcopter themselves. And then at good last, Toon and I were hosting the demo zone where we actually flew the real deal FPV drones.
We wanted to give people an idea of the gear we use on a shoot and what we can do with that gear. At least within the confines of that space. It’s not that difficult to navigate a Sub250 or a Cinewhoop but once we got the Cinelifters airborne, things got a bit more tense.
I decided NOT to fly the DJI Inpsire drone. It felt like a bad idea and I stand by that decision 😂
On a couple of occasions, we even had visitors wear a couple of goggles so they could follow our flights along as we did them AROUND THEM! It was immense fun and it was amazing getting a reaction out of people who had no idea of what’s going on during such a flight.
Looking forward to doing this again!
