100 drones over WRAM!

[James Vautin]

Hi folks,

For the last two years I've been working on a drone light show project with whatever free time is left after a fulltime job, my wife's business, and my 2 year old..  

after being disappointed with every drone on the market (proprietary systems, weak lights, etc) Subhra convinced me to build one.

So here we are  2 years later.. the project is finally hitting its stride with our ability to do 100+ drone shows with a drone that's brighter than anything else available on the market.  Here's one from last night at WRAM:

I can let "Friends of WRAM" or this mailing list know when we do the next one! 

If I ever happen to break even on this project with paid shows at other locations I'll be sure to give something back to the club as gratitude for allowing me to test over the past couple of years. I could not have done it without WRAM.

See you around!

Beautiful work, James. A dazzling display of diodes. I loved the shark and of course the product placement near the end. 

Thank you for sharing this.

Great to see the progress! The displays get better and better. Wish you the best luck with your future endeavors and sharing the hobby in a completely different way than most of us know.
