Hua Hin Thailand Mid-Speed Rail Construction Drone Flight - June 15 2021
Welcome to the June 2021 Hua Hin Thailand train line construction drone flight video update.
Please check back to the April and May videos in the channel:
April 2021: https://youtu.be/t_e2G-uBKpw
May 2021: https://youtu.be/mkSmrj1C8eM
By popular demand, this month I've flown the entire length of the line from the very north end of Hua Hin at the airport, all the way to the very south leading out of town towards Khao Tao. That took me 3 days and 8 flights, using up all 3 batteries each day. You'll notice a small blur as I edit the sections of video together to try to make it look like a single seamless flight. I managed to maintain a 42 meter altitude on all of the clips but I need to decide on and set a camera gimbal angle for consistency - I promise better next month.
This section of new train line is a "Mid-Speed" dual-track system, expected to cruise around 160 kph, which is almost double what I've experienced in the past, so that's still a good thing.
The dual-track system will alleviate the problem of a northbound and southbound train fighting for the same track. I've been on a train that had to stop and reverse to the previous station to allow another train to go past. That really messes up the schedule.
The trains coming through Hua Hin will soon transition from the old Hua Lamphong station in the heart of Bangkok to the new Bang Sue station in the northwest corner of the city. This will cut an additional 45 minutes off the trip and allow me to jump onto Bangkok's BTS / MRT subway system and quickly get to where I want to go.
Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions for future flights.
You'll see a little promo clip from my friend who runs the https://ImInHuaHin.com web site. Check it our for all things related to our fine city.
Credit goes out to the Hua Hin Today publication for finding construction progress data, showing the Hua Hin section at 85% complete, and the entire section should be operational by January 2023.

Getting the motor spinning was a series of steps to make sure the motor controller had pack voltage, a proper signal from the throttle and finally a proper enable signal. I was thwarted by a product manual full of lies!

(Up to 30 seconds). Recite a poem backward (so it can be heard correctly if played in reverse). The first part of your video must be you saying the poem in reverse and then the second part, the same recording played backward so we can hear it the right way. You may NOT use technology to play the poem in reverse - you must recite it backward yourself. - Kaia M.

HUA H
hua-hin-thailand-train-construction-20
The Thai paperwork for my Spanish visa is complete, but I can't go back to Barcelona yet because the FBI haven't also given their thumbs up yet, so I got to fly the drone one time before I head out again.
Highlights this month are the continuing progress of the station and happily the restarting of work on the pedestrian overpasses in the north end of the city. Our first flying day was overcast but Geoff got some nice blue sky the next day down in Khao Tao after the short but heavy thunder storm. Enjoy!

I order, receive, examine and return the factory lithium battery pack from the Toyotron factory. It was clearly a used pack, with paint damage from being inserted and removed many times, the positive battery lead insulation was torn and the Anderson connector was corroded. Other than that, how was the play Mrs. Lincoln?

WHAT'
what's-under-the-skin-of-the-new-tesla
You may have seen pictures of the new Tesla Cybertruck, with the crazy triangular shape and stainless steel skin. But that's not the whole story! There is even more innovative technology inside as Tesla continues to upend the entire automotive industry. Come along as I visit one of the first Cybertrucks in a showroom in Denver, then dig into the die-cast exoskeleton chassis, frunk, tonneau cover on the huge bed, massive towing capability, off-road suspension, blistering performance with dual- and triple-motor versions, a huge battery pack, steer-by-wire, 48 volt electric system, AC power outlets, powering your home and more.
