Flights out of Gatwick are grounded at Christmas as lone "nut" with drone flies over runways and evades police/army.
Gatwick has announced plans to add another runway to the airport which is what has been speculated to have sparked this event.
"A person with a suspected PhD in electrical engineering modified this drone to switch it over to some form of 3G communication (phone waves) instead of typical radio……army having hard time bringing it down with their 'top secret methods"
This is economic terrorism and has my approval. How many millions of dollars has this simple act caused the Zionist government?
Alexander Turner
Hey, engineering anons; how difficult would it be to make a drone that rotated through different frequencies for control, like going from radio to 3G to television bands etc to make it harder to ground?
As if our armed forces wasn't already enough of a joke. Just like the pakis take it all. Fuck everything.
Gabriel Russell
Fuck that. You want them to ban drones? It's already against the law to fly them near airports.
Thomas Taylor
Ov vey, that's hilarious. I don't condone this as so.e idiot copycat might think it's a good idea to do something stupid and get some innocent killed.
Nathan Scott
This entire stunt has been a false flag to give the government all the excuse it needs to ban drones.
Camden Jackson
Dubs for shutyourdamnhole

Any Zig Forums anons here lurking, explain this.
Michael Davis
3G is the most invisible.
Anyways this dipshit is giving islamic terrorists a great set of ideas.
Ayden Gonzalez
Different wavelengths have different characteristics. Range, data transfer rates, energy consumption, susceptibility to interference, etc.
In short, no, you're not going to be easily switching from "TV bands" to 3G to whatever-you-want without some significant trade-offs for giving yourself that ability.
On the other hand though, if it's a drone using 3G for control then realistically the controller could literally be anywhere on the fucking planet.
Henry Reed
They can have all the excuses they want, they have no capability of banning something that most people under 30 already possess and can be purchased for less than a packet of cigarettes.
Isaac Sullivan
Mudshits are too inbred retarded for this tech, but mossad isn't, at least not too retarded to steal it.
Ethan Allen

Read the Turner Diaries. You are the character that Earl Turner executes in Chapter VII

Jaxson Gonzalez
They're too inbred and retarded to think of anything other than ramming a truck into a group of kids, but once the idea is out they can copy.
Carter Flores
I really wonder if this is to keep certain people from leaving or arriving at Gatwick. It's mostly charters and budget travel IIRC.
Bentley Foster
I've been waiting for this type of event to happen.
creating a drone that can't be brought down by radio jamming is a piece of cake you just have it move autonomously, controlled by a program in it's flight control computer. you can also have it only respond to encrypted commands, so it can't be overpowered by a different transmitter you can also have it receive signals on light frequencies, like infrared, optical, ultraviolet, etc. even if they go scorched earth and jam GPS, you can easily do optical location sensing using landmarks, the stars, etc. or inertial positioning
long story short, if they are up against a PhD in electronics engineering, they are going to have to blast it out of the sky.
Elijah Foster
Reminder that the UK has a hacker culture that isn't as looked down on as well as they had a robust history of pirate radio and some crrrrazy STL links used to that they wouldn't be caught.
William Sullivan
A Britanon mentioned Gatwick fired over 200 employees before Christmas. This might be revenge.
Grayson Sanders
The controller could even be a botnet. That's how ridiculously ansurd things have gotten.
Aiden Anderson
It needs someone somewhere to service its LiPo batteries between flights, and a successful mission requires constant surveillance.
Tyler Ward
Not if they were smart enough to design it to self charge.
Step 1. See drone. Step 2. Launch your drone. Step 3. Follow bad drone. Step 4. Arrest. They have no intention, or desire to catch the 'drone' if there is one. Pictures of a drone only appeared after half a day when people were suspicious there were no sightings. i.e. This is a cover story for something else. If drones really are involved then is right.
Landon Reed
Assuming that there's just a single drone
Assuming that its not flying autonomously.
Not applicable. That's a prototype for a tiny drone that recharges by landing on power lines - akin to the way a phone can recharge wirelessly. But you'll note that power lines are obviously absent from anywhere near an airport.
Regardless, drones use a lot of power and charging takes a long time comparable to their flight time even from a main supply - I really don't think we need to consider solar here as we're talking about the UK on the winter solstice.

The Turner Diaries is good literature. Drone warfare is great. If the government wants to ban drones, then let them. If they don't, then all the better. Not using a weapon because you're afraid that the government will ban it is among the dumbest things you can possibly do. You're not a revolutionary. You're just a conservative. Piss off. You don't belong here.
Lucas Jones
The britbongs loose sight of the drone. It's been said the drone leaves when they almost find the person then it reappears later on.
You might be right user
Camden Gray
It's not about your gaylord drones. ANO 34 / 35 ensures they have the ability to imprison you for 10 years already using an aircraft manned or otherwise to endanger other aircraft or things on the ground. It's about 5G. You will accept it and you will adopt it, and when the time comes you will take the mark of the beast (or whatever total and final submission is for you). It's quite straightforward really, you have no need to use any control. Sacrificial doodlebug style drones made from foam an old cd motor and £5 of practically untraceable electronics, will shut an airport the same as a controlled one. If that is your aim. Remember the government are liars and shareholders. It's about 5G.
Ryan Gutierrez
From a botnet? How does that work? Even if it was a computer controlling it and not a human it would still have to be within a 5 mile radius like the story suggests the controller has to be
Robert Reyes
They can't ban drones. They're easy to make out of readily available parts.
Matthew Johnson
IT crash at Heathrow airport now. Flights delayed.
Glowniggers stress testing their false flag plans if Brexit actually happens.
Cooper Powell
Yes. Provoking increased anarcho-tyranny is actually good because it further delegitimizes the government. What has been great since 2016 is that their anarcho-tyranny that has typically been reserved for "right wing extremists" and "nazis" has spilled over and been hitting normal conservatives. To the point that their groups like proud boys are being treated as terrorists.
Luis Brooks
depends on the airport. You don't have to go too far from LAX to find power lines. inductive charging can be fast enough. however, I don't claim to be a PhD in engineering, but I'm pretty sure that stopping to charge isn't that important, as a single disruption incident will invariably last hours. agreed
Henry Wright
"You can ban an object but you cannot ban the knowledge used to make the object"
Noah Rodriguez
Only a transmitter has to be within five miles. It could easily be networked and controlled remotely by computer.
Gabriel Kelly
Indeed. Besides, the thing that really boggles my mind is when someone says "Oh no! Don't use this weapon or they'll ban it!" If no one uses X to harm these monstrous psychopaths who are murdering us, then it might as well be banned. A gun left in a closet might as well not exist. And a drone left in its box might as well be illegal. Death to ZOG.
Brody Miller
Its been said the drone comes back intermittently. It's not just one, it's been coming back and leaving for 24 hrs
Heaven forbid some enterprising engineers find a way to harm people using trucks, they'd end up shutting the nation down.
Nicholas Johnson
they didn't fly so good.
Angel Richardson
Or maybe someone just has the balls to do something and that scares you.
Aiden Ross
im pissed that it was a lefty who had the balls to do this first, its been something i have dreamt would happen. this is purely and completely hypothetical but, what if some enterprising user were to create a drone and wiped it of identifying marks completely, then made it controllable through botnet. Or better yet made dozens of them. Then each one could carry whatever payload you like and their control would be distributed and ultimately anonymous. Who is to say what nefarious and unwanted character could be a victim to such a furtive and efficient attack?
Joshua Russell
What the fuck…how difficult do they have to make it, just bring a shotgun! On a more serious note, fucking ingenious!
Some guy is posting on twitter as the drone operator, said he's sending a drone swarm next and will "block out the skies" with his creations
Alexander Carter
They have what the bongs call "gun cops" on station
Liam Miller
This only gets more hilarious the more I think about it. Welcome to the era of its only illegal if you get caught. Autists will be minmaxing for lulz with little risk. Wouldn't be surprised it becomes part of a common toolbox along with SWATing your enemies.
Imagine what happens to the system when the kikes begin to lose control of their golems. They always imagine themselves as more competent masters than they are.
A shotgun in the UK? You'd be lucky if you find a cop allowed to carry a plastic baton over there
Jaxson Fisher
Who knows what the fuck they mean by "3G". The guy might just be using frequency hopping/spread spectrum in 700Mhz-1.9Ghz which is where 3G cellphones operate. If he is doing that then he is pure fucking genius. They wont be able to easily find him because his signal will be surrounded by 10s of thousands of cellphones. And if they want to use jamming that means jamming everyone's cellphones.
If he is actually using a 3G modem as command and control then his drone will look like any other cellphone. And he could be anywhere in the world. There are GSM breakout boards that even have GPS built in. So you could "text" your drone lat/lon/elevation and have it go there. learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-fona-808-cellular-plus-gps-breakout
The US Army has had microwave based weapons since the early 2000s. If the UK really wanted to they could have used one of the samples they were given through NATO to blast this drone down.
Liam Ward
Western governments have been fighting tooth and nail against right wing dissidents since the 1990s. If they want to further sink into paranoia and tyranny let them, it will just place more burden on the system.
Jace Jones
It's not they can't take it out, they want the fucking operator running it.
Jason Bennett
It's ok were getting the Israel iron dome technology at 2.6 million per airport. (Which means somewhere between 284 million and 6 billion per airport)
Welcome to cyberfeudalism, now get back in your wagecage.
Nathaniel Wilson
This is fucking hilarious. They think only qualified people know things.
Nathaniel Moore
Yes but they said they couldn't disable the drone itself, which is bullshit.
Tyler Phillips
This is what a college mill culture does to you
Leo Gray
They may have meant "safely".
William Barnes
Go to lainchan's /g/ and I assure you someone will have an infograph on how to build a drone controlled by phone frequencies. This shit isn't very complex to do if you have a bare minimum tool cabinet and some components.
Nicholas Jackson
This. It is fucking retarded, and all the stupid cunts believe anything the newspapers throw into their faces. Nuke the planet, I'm sick of all the fucking idiots.
There's a thread on half 4chan about this. Fucker op copied my entire post
Benjamin Cruz
lijuyh
Ian Ramirez
If you want to shut down an airport, all you need is a homemade mortar launcher and homemade shells that can be launched onto the runway from a wooded area or other type of concealment. The cool part is that the shells don't even need to be explosive, they can just be sand-filled dummies. Every single one needs to be treated as a real hazard by the bomb squad regardless of whether it's real or not.
Just a hypothetical thought experiment, don't actually do it.
Benjamin Morgan
none you retard … they create money from thin air
Bentley Price
Changed some words and maybe you will see how it doesn't matter when they want to ban something.
Brayden Sullivan
much like illegal wiretaps using stingray, sometimes the government doesn't want to reveal their hand; people might be agahst if they saw some of these wepons in action, or they want to prevent people from seeing them in action so that they maintain the element of surprise and stave off the creation of counter measures.
this too of course, to make a very public example of. they are absolutely furious that this person has been able to essentially make them look like fools
probably this too. what goes up must come down. but again, people might react badly to weapons of war being used in their backyard just to swat a fly
James Watson
funny how you all think it is easy to make a super duper invulnerable drone of magic. believing that the government must have been doing everything absolutely at all possible to end the situation. it was staged shit, and there are numerous simple countermeasures against this in place in almost all airports, especially military ones. they could have had something in place in half an hour at most.
Austin Rogers
3G is already the best strategy because you're hiding signals like a needle in a haystack. You could add different modes of communication with the right transceivers, encrypted as well, but they would like be easier to isolate. Anyway, it doesn't require a PhD to do this, not even close.
Noah Morgan
Oh yeah, I forgot the bongs own "regular" force are so cucked, they need to call in "specialists" when it comes to handling firearms - even when its BB guns.
The forensics knowledge necessary could not be possessed by a single person.
For example, materials and microflora contaminants can tell a forensics lab where you've been within a five mile radius.
Dylan Ward
You don't need woods, hell an box truck with an sliding panel on the roof that looks like an vent is plenty enough. Encasing the mortar in an outer layer of light sheet metal with something as simple as cotton sandwiched between two layers of the buffer or even an vacuum would ensure very little shock inside the van even if you don't stick the tube fully outside the top of the vehicle. Also the buffered soundwaves will make a bitch of a time for people telling where it came from.
Hell, I bet you could automate the mortar to launch while on the move and never even have to stop. Launching beside or in between a pair of semi's and nobody is going to know anything.
Cameron Torres
as a burger this took like four re-readings to register properly. you britbongs can be so cute. even if it is pathetic.
Also nobody could justify the cost of such forensics when a 12 gauge with some birdshot could fix this problem in about 1 fucking second for 1/1000000nth of the cost. You must be british to be this retarded.
Wyatt Stewart
It's my understanding that if it's frequency hopping, then the drone should have a pre-programmed list of frequencies to hop between. If they got the drone undamaged, couldn't authorities at least have a sort of fingerprint in case the operator attempted this stunt again with a different drone and was dumb enough to use the same setup? And if the operator reused the programming from another source it could possibly give away who he is, right?
Christopher Garcia
You could have it cycle through wavelengths based on an algorithm that was started with a specific number, and both the drone and the transmitter would have to be calculating that algorithm with the same base number, and be started at the same time. This is a virtually unbreakable code by outside sources, they could never predict which wavelength both the drone and control transmitter would switch to next, because they wouldn't have the starting number.
But building the device would take an engineer. I'm just a lowly tech.
Absolute hero. This nigger just SIEGE'd an entire airport with one shitty drone.
Samuel Bennett
Everything has a cost
Gavin Powell
Not necessarily. If the transmissions are properly encoded it would save storage space for more vital things to just have the frequencies transmitted when the radio needs to hop. Then all that is needed is a simple lookup and a few lines of code to trigger the hop. Otherwise you're dealing with both data and time data and synchronization of the two radios. That's additional complexity to an already over complicated device.
