What kind of throws are you using at high speeds? Do you use multiple rates or expo?

How much load do the servos see? What is the average power draw for the aircraft? What telemetry or data logging do you run?

As Spencer said at the end of this talk you should go out and witness dynamic soaring in person if you get the opportunity. I was able to go out to Parker Mountain in California in October of 2023 and met Spencer, Bruce Tebo and a few other flyers. The highest speeds I saw that day were 400-450, wind gusting to about 45mph. But the videos cannot come close to conveying the incredible energy at work here; it's both violent and awe-inspiring. And even when breaking out the the DS circuit, Spencer will often just climb... Vertical and at the limit of visibility in a heartbeat. The speeds they are making with unpowered flight are incredible. Thanks Spencer!

Have you considered RTK Spencer? It is a very accurate positioning system, much better than GPS alone, and implemented in some drones for repeatable autopilot positioning. A constant live speed would really up the game for data. Someone in the community may be able to help with adapting it for your use, even with more base stations, possibly triangulating the position from the ground.

Great to hear from ya with all the updates Spencer. Thanks for sharing. Bruce

Not even enough attendees for a Zoom call minimum... Looks like the same number that walked out of manor's presentation at Scaled for the same reasons...

Fascinating!

Very informative! I look forward to seeing how these tools further develop!

Incredible presentation and thank you for sharing.

Sehr lehrreich und unterhaltsam :) Danke Jonas und Christoph!

No mention of fighting the bugs/bitters eating your project/factory. Sad 😆 The factory must grow.

What a fascinating journey into the world of speed puzzling 😊 thank you Chiara!

„KI“ wird die Jobs der Kreativen nicht wegnehmen, aber den Wert in den Boden stampfen. Deshalb wird auch brav weiter vergiftet. First shade, than glaze, heisst die Devise. Damit das Embedding im Vektorraum so richtig lustig wird.

This was so interesting. Thanks for sharing your story with us Chiara. 😃

Great Talk ! 👏 ✨✨✨

Great Talk!! Thank you!

This is one of the coolest things ever done by man.

Marketing 101: - Tell people they stink => Sell deodorant - Tell people they are ugly => Sell makeup - Tell people they can be whatever gender they want to be => Sell plastic surgery and a lot of pills and therapy. - Tell people something scary => They follow radical populists - Tell people how scary deadlocks are => Sell a new language - Tell people how scary memory management is => Sell a new language. It is always the same template: A new language pops up to save us from the evil <fill in your topic here>. With the recent language explosion, I start to think, we need a time of consolidation. Instead of 20 new languages for 20 different evil problems, we need 1 modern language, in the same sense as back in the day, an ANSI standard consolidated all the LISP mutations into 1 standard: Common Lisp. Or that effort to create 1 functional language instead of 20 (Haskell). Also quite amusing: All "brand new languages" still have a printf facility - but what about audio standard APIs (application/file/network/device source and application/file/network/device sinks) and 2d/3d/UI graphics standard APIs, which are not as code bloated as Vulkan and not as daft as OpenGL, but actually practical? Really - no one appreciates your personal flavor of console.print() printf format write and whatever stuff, if all the other stuff is missing. Even more amusing is to ponder, how a modern printf "design" would look like: My bet is, it would have 4k lines of code of boiler plate fore you can get "hello world" out, involving CharsetFactories, EncodingManagers, ColorizerFlyWeightFactories and whatnot...

Autonomous DS Gliding Munition. Flys in circles all day til its target appears. There's your money making idea

The first time I ever heard of this it was referred to as Project Jennifer not Project Azorian.

I heard $454 million mentioned when I was assigned to another project after three years of hard work. Outfitted the survey vessel with dredge for nodules.

John Graham was my direct boss. He recruited me from Ocean Science and Engineering , owned by Willard Bascom, where I rebuilt a small semi for Woos Hole that had experienced a collapse when launched! Such fun!

I worked on this for three years. Outfitted the survey vessel with an a frame and winch with 6 miles of one inch wire on it, USS Torque Balanced. Later on winches for power and instrumentation umbilicals. Difcficult to install on the lifting gear in thes moon pool. Hydraulic oil leaks every where , fireproof that rotted your shoes! Tried to change the concept to use compressed air and a column stabilized semi that would eliminate the entire motion compensation system including the gimbal. Later I invented the Apache Reelship and the MPSS.

Hollly... S...t :D THAT'S AWESOME. I have been watching videos about DS, but this video covers a lot more. Thank you!

Josh you need to contact me, I know exactly how and what occurred to K-129. I was there in a P-3 and heard the explosion via sonobuoy.

1N×e5 R×g8 2N×c4 Kd3 3Nb2check..! Am I right

Vincent wird , so denke ich nach Lasker der 2. deutsche Weltmeister werden.

2:30:00 I do not see the termination issue here. 'repeat a' in a sense does not terminate, but it is a perfectly total Haskell function. If LiquidHaskell requires lists to become shorter in a recursive call then it would prohibit 'repeat'. Imagine the recursive call to 'merge' would actually be a 'repeat'. Would this be ok? It would be, because the recursive branch already produced something and thus no infinite loop occurs. Thus I think, the initial definition of 'merge' should be accepted because in every branch there is either no recursion at all or the recursion only happens after producing new data.

1:41:00 exampleSorted: I assume that with the given definition of SortedList the validity check requires quadratic runtime?

Sweep it! Ma_n = cosβ*Ma

Really amazing stuff, and the speaker did a phenomenal job at explaining it. One question I have is whether mapping over a list/traversable just to apply a newtype data constructor could be avoided in some way via type coercion (which is always doable for newtypes) and whether it ends up making a difference. I'm not an experienced haskeller but I'm guessing it would require some type family magic.

thank you for making this talk and also uploading it, it is really informative, porting flatscreen games to VR is a really interesting field

Incredibly cool! I have access to a 3D high-fidelity aerodynamic shape optimizer with laminar-turbulent transition prediction. I wonder what airfoils we could generate in order to delay the drag divergence Mach number.

Would love to hear him talk about how to (or what prevents) scaling this to fit a human inside. A way to reduce the g forces to a reasonable level of sustainable.

How about a human pilot inside a glider?

I'll be impressed when someone breaks the sound barrier. 767 mph, 1234 km/h or 1,125 ft/s

Brilliant

Lol the air on mars is around .5% the thickness of earth's atmosphere, so can these operate in what is basically space? Also when you see all those craters you don't wonder for 2 seconds how they all got there? We may be caught up in a little Mars fantasy fever these days. Highly recommend The Common Sense Skeptic's YT channel to bring yourself out of this illness..

Thank you....

this explained it so clearly thank you

Brilliant talk, well worth a second viewing

How can we use it to make electricity. Like a electricity miner.

Have ai fly it

great talk, loving the format

Hard to imagine that it's hand flyable. Must be a good repetitive rhythm with only small corrections necessary once the bird gets up to speed.

C.hesse schätze ich,genial seine Vorlieben.

Is anyone looking into using Dynamic Soaring idea in design and placement of wind turbines to generate electricity?

Just found DS yesterday. WOW, just WOW.

Google auto-translate works well. Marvelous exploration of dynamic gliding.

Shadowbanning people for accusing obvious cheaters of cheating, ignoring cheating reports from shadowbanned people, accepting donations from shadowbanned people and so does NOT make sense and is NOT ETHICALLY ACCEPTABLE. I also suspect shadowbanned people get matched against cheaters more often. Very naive talk!
