Chapter 21 Camera Drones

It was Hamduk himself who took the bait: "It's all in the past tense, now... I am a vegetable grower."

The middle-aged man looked lonely, and when Han Feng saw the man's face at close range, he suddenly realized that he had seen this man before, at the gate of the police station—this was the place that was forcibly occupied by the Belgians. rancher.

The atmosphere fell into a slightly awkward silence for a while, and the quietness of the air made people a little anxious. After a few minutes, Hamduk sighed and stood up: "Then I will go first, thank you, Boss Huang, for your help. The first batch of vegetables in my field will be harvested soon next week, and I will deliver them as soon as possible."

After speaking, he opened the door and strode away.

"Ah..." Huang Qiao looked at Hamduk's back through the window, and pulled Han Feng to sit at a table together: "The **** Belgian only paid [-] euros, and the city hall and the police station also paid [-] euros." If you don’t support him, there’s no other way, so he went to another place to get a vegetable field. In fact, I don’t lack vegetables, but in his situation..."

Huang Qiao also had a worried expression on his face. As a Chinese, he was not afraid of being raped like this, but when the Belgians came, Boda was turned upside down, and the business in the store was much colder than usual, and because of Hamduk's The pasture was occupied, and the meat on the menu was only chicken and some fish and shrimp.

"Speaking of which, his farm should have been in operation for many years, so he must have some savings. Why is it so miserable?" Han Feng is now familiar with Huang Qiao, and he picked up the teapot on the table and poured it out. Two cups of tea, push one of them in front of the other.

Huang Qiao took a sip of the tea, held the teacup in his hand and kept spinning it: "You know, people in Africa generally have the idea of ​​being drunk today, and don't save much money. Besides, I heard that he has One son is going to school in the United States, and it is estimated that the cost is not small."

People with a little bit of money in Afrikaans have the same idea, that is, to send their offspring away. Anyway, going anywhere is better than staying here.

In fact, Hamduk used to be considered a small dignitary in Boda, relying on the income from the farm to barely make it into the local upper class. When Abel was still worrying about sending his son to Europe, he sent him a few years ago. My own child was sent to the United States, but in front of foreigners with guns, all this was useless.

Especially at this moment when the mountains and rains are about to come and the wind is full of buildings, everyone is panicking about the possible civil war. No matter what the Belgian army says, it can be regarded as the magic needle in the hearts of the locals, so that those soldiers who come and go like the wind Don't dare to be too arrogant.

So no one dared to stand up and say something.

The two Chinese people can probably understand this feeling, but they can't do anything yet.

Han Feng didn't like this depressing atmosphere a bit, so he decided to change the subject: "By the way, I'm here this time to ask, do you know the origin of that French reporter who has been staying here?"

"Antoine?" Huang Qiao's hand holding the cup trembled imperceptibly. Fortunately, there was not much tea in it and did not spill out: "I'm the only one who runs a shop, as long as he pays me, why would I care so much?"

After finishing speaking, he put the cup back on the table calmly: "Why did you mention him all of a sudden?"

"Hmm..." Han Feng pondered for a moment, and organized his words: "I can't say it well, I feel very strange. He is a Frenchman, so he shouldn't have too much affection for the Belgian army."

Huang Qiao was stunned when he heard this answer: "Why? Didn't the Belgians come to help the French control the situation? Now the French army is basically in the Sahel region in the north, so they don't care about here."

"That's what Antoine said?"

"Does he need to say that?" Huang Qiao shook his head quickly after hearing this: "You may not know that you have been here for a short time. A few years ago, CAF probably stationed nearly a thousand French troops. In the past two years, they have been transferred one after another. Maybe only There are only one hundred and ten people left in Bungie, and this vacancy must be filled."

What Huang Qiao said was logically correct, but the French actually didn't want to see someone make up for it, and not everyone knew this.

Europe's former colonists were not monolithic either.

"In short, I think this person is not simple. Just be careful and don't get involved in any trouble by him."

Everyone has a secret, Han Feng is not really interested in Antoine, he just reminded Huang Qiao out of the friendship of his compatriots.

"Probably not, but thank you Brother Han for being so caring about my brother and me." Huang Qiao said, standing up and walking up the stairs: "Let's not talk about that, just come here today and do me a favor."

Han Feng followed him upstairs and dragged out a huge plastic box from the small warehouse on the second floor.

The workmanship of the box is very exquisite, and it definitely does not look like something locally produced in Africa.

"This is……"

Before Han Feng finished speaking, Huang Qiao opened the lid directly, revealing a six-axis multi-rotor drone inside, and the box containing the drone itself is also the console of the plane, judging from the Chinese label on it , should be produced by Huaxia.

Han Feng suddenly remembered that this should be the one that Asha controlled on the New Year's Day.

Man, who can refuse such a big toy? In his previous life, Han Feng had seen students who were promoting in school use similar equipment, but he had never come into contact with it so closely.

"Your sister-in-law went shopping today. It's not easy to play with this thing alone." Huang Qiao took out a set of cameras from the box. The camera captures steady images in the air.

Immediately afterwards, Han Feng lifted the drone's fuselage slightly, allowing Huang Qiao enough space to install the camera on it. As the latter said, it was indeed a bit troublesome.

Together, the two carried the assembled drone to the backyard, which was completely empty at first, but after Boss Wang delivered a few live cows, it became a lot more crowded.

And Han Feng also noticed that there were about a dozen more oil barrels in the corner of the yard, which may have been brought by Boss Wang last time.

"Doesn't this kind of drone have its own camera? Why do you need to hang a special one?" Han Feng squatted down, looking at a small camera in front of the drone and asked.

"That one is used to assist remote control flight. Without the stability and flexibility of the gimbal, I often need to focus while flying, and the imaging effect is not good."

Huang Qiao moved two small stools and placed them in front of the operating table as he spoke, obviously seeing that Han Feng was very interested in this, and motioned for him to sit down and watch together.

"I remember... sister-in-law didn't seem to use such a big thing that day?" Han Feng recalled the situation on New Year's Day. Asha should have just controlled the drone with something like a large handle.

"I have a good memory." Huang Qiao replied while skillfully operating the console: "This drone has two control methods, one is what you saw that day, fly directly with the remote control handle or this console, and There is one that I will use right away, pre-set the flight path, and then it will fly automatically, so I can concentrate on controlling the gimbal below to shoot.”

As far as a YouTube blogger is concerned, this equipment is quite professional, and I am afraid it is expensive.

"This method needs to receive a GPS signal, but you know the situation in Afrika, it can only be used for a few hours a day."

Although it is called a "global" and "satellite" positioning system, in fact, the four mainstream products in the world rely on ground stations for supplementation, and the coverage capabilities in different regions of the world are also different. In places like Afrika, using the civil code Terminals often have weak signals.

"Om-"

After Huang Qiao completed the settings, the motor of the drone started rapidly, and the six rotors distributed around the fuselage drove the air to the ground. A few seconds later, the drone with a camera weighing nearly ten kilograms was lifted into the air. The power level far exceeded Han Feng's previous imagination.

In two breaths, the drone turned into a small black dot in Han Feng's eyes, and the sound was completely inaudible.

"Today I'm going to shoot around Boda." Huang Qiao introduced while controlling the movement of the camera lens to shoot the densely packed buildings and streets below.

Looking at the magnified image on the screen that was still quite clear, Han Feng suddenly felt that this kind of thing had a strong potential for military applications.

Compared with fixed-wing drones that cost tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars and require professional ground and airport services, this kind of thing is light and flexible, and can even be carried by a single soldier.

And it's cheap.

Of course, in the final analysis, it is a civilian device after all, and it has little resistance to electromagnetic interference. Even if the other party has electromagnetic tracking capabilities, the operator itself will be quite dangerous.

But this is in Africa, so there should be no need to worry about this kind of problem.

The drone flew slowly according to the route set by Huang Qiao. Due to the characteristics of the multi-rotor, its speed was relatively slow, but the flight was very stable. Even with only the built-in camera on the aircraft, it could maintain a stable image.

"Look, the one in the distance is Hamduk's previous breeding farm."

Huang Qiao pointed at the screen and said casually. Han Feng stepped forward and saw a square camp with four walls in the distance.

"Can you fly over there and have a look?" Han Feng asked out of curiosity, but he immediately felt that something was wrong - after all, it is a military camp now, and a drone flying over rashly may be found Even attack.

Moreover, Huang Qiao also said before that he preset the route, so it seems impolite to ask others to change it just like that.

Unexpectedly, Huang Qiao nodded directly: "The set route will be very close to there, you can take a look at that time."

A few minutes later, the camp gradually grew larger in the camera, and Han Feng could even see the Belgian tricolor flag flying on the flagpole in the center of the camp.

From the perspective of the air, it is easy to see the whole picture of the entire camp, and Han Feng finally understands why the Belgians must occupy this place.
