Drone flies through bowling alley

One of the neatest videos I’ve ever watched. Guy flying the drone has pretty good skills!

I’d like to know what kind of drone they used. Whoever flying it has some skills

That was fantastic. Like a cross between Star Wars and Big Lebowski. Thanks for sharing.

That place needs support? I know it's been a feature on a Food Network show a while ago. Also when I was there they had rules against lofting the ball.

Social distancing patrol drone...

That was amazing flying. At first I thought it was sped up, but then you have many opportunities to watch people moving and clearly it is at normal speed. Wow.

That looks like a sweet place IMO. Very cool retro feel.

Laughed at the guy shining his ball!!

That's incredible! Must be a racing drone. For anyone who hasn't seen a race look them up, they are bonkers.

So why do I have so much trouble flying my micro drone from one side of the living room to the other? They make it look so easy.

Ive probably watched it 20 times or more- the precision of the drone is captivating. I wonder if that took 1 take or 200 takes.

Love all the Lebowski references in it! "Your toe was over the line."

I think it is a mindset thing and touch. I am a pilot...I can fly things but for the life of me I cannot keep a mini quad flying and maneuver it. I do a little better with a headset on but it is still rough. I have the same issue with R/C planes but not nearly as bad as they are MUCH easier to delineate which way is forward.

supposedly people that are really good at racing drones make 7 figures in doing it. Think there was an article of a guy from waukee that got a nice little contract to race drones maybe 6 months to a year ago.

It's incredible what they can do with those things. As fast as that looks in that bowling alley video it's a snails pace compared to what they do when they're racing. I don't know how those guys don't get sick racing with headsets on.
