Cueball: Um Megan: Should we have helped? Ponytail: No. Cueball: Today we'll be learning the basics of- Cueball. Transcript Cueball: Welcome to Quadcopter-flying school. Comparing drones to animals is also present in 1881: Drone Training, when Black Hat Guy asks for a spray bottle for his drone. Just over a week before this comic was released another comic also had as subject a situation where our technological inventions begins to take control over us, see 1626: Judgment Day.

#Quad copter how to

How to solve the problem of too many drones was mentioned in 1523: Microdrones. Sentient quadcopters were part of the game in 1608: Hoverboard, where one quadcopter is speaking to the other over the lava lake in the Mount Doom crater to the left. This continues the theme of treating drones as an occasionally-ugly but accepted part of nature. The title text refers back to the above as Randall confesses that he has to turn off any nature documentaries which show scenes of animals killing their prey, while the speaker tells that this would be part of nature. This comic thus takes people's worries to the extreme, suggesting that the drones become sentient and can cooperate together just like a pack of wolves and grab a human being and fly off with him like an eagle would do with a smaller animal. Here the comic takes the name literally, giving drones predatory behavior. Although it's not a quad-copter, the idea behind this comic could come from drone names just like this. There is currently a drone called MQ-1 Predator which is used a lot by the CIA and USAF. So in such a case with Cueball being taken by wild quadcopters we would not just let nature takes its course. This comic shows how hypocritical that comment is, because if a lion decides to kill and eat humans, that would be natural, but we would do anything in our power to kill this lion, and not just let it run off with our children or the old and weak people.

This would not be possible in real life assuming they weren't using secret military technology as Cueball outweighs the drones by several factors. This is a common comment in nature programs about wildlife, where the speaker tries to explain why the team that was there to film the animals dying did nothing to help them - because they will not interfere with nature. Afterwards Megan asks if they should actually have tried to help him, but then Ponytail takes the view that now that the drones are sentient, they have become a part of nature, and that you should not interfere but just 'let nature take its course'. Meanwhile, his students just stand there watching and do nothing to help him. They grab him and lift him off the ground (a very complicated maneuver) and fly away with him. He has a quadcopter ready, lying on the ground behind him, and has already handed the remote control to the other guy so he can try it once the introduction is over.īut then the teacher is attacked by three rogue quadcopters flying in from behind him. He is standing in front of his students ( Megan, Ponytail and another Cueball-like guy), presenting the class. This comic takes place during such a lesson where Cueball is a teacher of such a class. Some people have objections towards the usage of quadcopters as, if equipped with cameras, they can potentially interfere with personal privacy and may pose a physical aerial hazard.įor this reason the US Federal Aviation Administration is now requiring any 'drone' (unmanned aerial vehicle) to be registered so that it can find out whose fault it might be that a quadcopter interfered with commercial aircraft-or carried off a citizen to be devoured.

There is large controversy over unmanned small-scale quadcopters, which are a type of radio-controlled helicopter. Title text: I always have to turn off nature documentaries when they show these scenes.
