AirAsia. This airline is basically scam. If anything goes wrong, there are no humans to talk to anymore. Only chatbots. No hotline and not even email support. They just keep your money, even if it’s 100% their fault. The chatbot is as unhelpful as it gets.


I didn’t know this is possible. Thanks for the idea!


IR transmitter, removable batteries (but they will come back), the notification LED.


Programmable drone with charging pod.
Hi folks, I couldn't find a large enough community about drones so I'll ask here. What I'm looking for is a programmable drone with an okay camera that can charge itself while landed. What I want to do is: I'd like to make a time lapse video of a larger area (few acres). So the drone needs to fly a pre-programmed pattern to take pictures of the ground surface (at least once a day) that I can stitch together into a single (very large) picture and eventually a video. It must be able to charge (maybe wirelessly using Qi) while landed. The control software doesn't need to run on the drone itself, but I'd prefer it if possible. The picture/video processing will happen on another device. There are probably options to modify a drone to make wireless charging possible for the ones that don't support it by design. Or maybe a contact-based setup where the drone slips into the charger while landing. I found a few things online but mostly very expensive professional grade stuff. Has anyone done something similar already? I'm willing to modify a drone and write the software (and release it all under a FOSS license). I'm just looking for a good starting point like a consumer-grade drone with an SDK and a (possibly DIY) charging solution. Cheers!

Galaxy S10e gang checking in. Resoldered the USB port because it was corroded. Everything else is working perfectly fine. No plans to ditch it as of now.
