Unlimited Range 4G LTE Parrot DISCO Drone
? My two main gripes about RC drones are around battery life and wireless range. Even the new DJI’s with all of their improvements in battery life and range, still have me wrapping up flights in under 30 minutes. If the tech keeps improving I may not have to wait too much longer. Fingers crossed. […]
A Fake Jeep? The Mahindra Roxor
Who knew there was a tiny Jeep copycat running around? Not I. The Mahindra Roxor lives somewhere between an old Jeep CJ and a UTV.

Google Chrome 69 Just Got Creepier
Starting this off by saying that there are plenty of Google products that I like very much. I am an avid user of the Nest products, search engine, email, etc… That doesn’t mean I won’t be looking for alternatives if they don’t keep turning up the creepiness.

Spry Drone Flies and Swims
As much as I love the DJI drones , they still aren’t waterproof, they don’t float, and they certainly can’t submerge and survive. I have lost two DJI quads to the water and believe me, the feeling sucks. Well this KickStarter team hopes to solve a few of these problems with their orange drone, Spry. Spry […]
Tesla Model S Long Jump
Thank goodness for these security cameras near the Little Avenue railway train tracks in Barrie, Ontario. These security cameras catch a few angles of this Tesla Model S getting some serious height and distance. The 46-year old driver and his passenger were treated for minor injuries, and the drier was charged with unsafe driving. […]

The Ford Raptor is a pretty great (and expensive) truck in its own right. But bigger is always usually better. This beautiful beast is the DEFCO BA350. It is a one-ton diesel truck with Raptor looks and DNA, and yes “BA” does stand for bad ass. The truck manages to look like a Ford Raptor […]
