Our drone photo of Apple's structure at the Flint Center - bhaveshp - 09-04-2014
My son flew the drone at the DeAnza campus and took this photo of the huge Apple building next to the Flint Center.
Funny, while they have a bunch of security guards patrolling the area, they came over and were excited to talk about and see the drone fly.

First, that is way cool!
Second, it almost seems appropriate that Apple security guards would geek out on the drone instead of trying to chase your son off.
Third, I think he should have waited a day or three more to see if what might be moved into the Center.
Fourth, he should always fly it cloaked. They would still hear it but not realize they were under surveillance.
Fifth, still way cool!

Ha, if only we had a cloaking switch on it! He did see a bunch of gear being moved in, likely some very cool toys in those boxes.

Don't forget the shields go down for a split second before fully cloaked.

Hmmm. The rest of the Sunken Garden is covered, but Pecoraro's "Life Is A Fountain" sculpture is left out in the open, and drained.
But then there is this:

You could have told them, give me $10,000 and I'll let you take a look.

I remember cutting class to go see that impromptu show. Lots of fun!

And now look at you Bo. I just stepped over you the other day lying along the curb in the Tenderloin. All for cutting one day.

Just to show how uncool I was- I worked that day.
My Father went instead.
