    I like the idea of an airbag that would pop out and protect a mounted camera, which could be several times more expensive than even a nice multicopter.

  • Is this air bag infringe this patent application?

  • @Sam, or maybe it's just because we don't understand it.

    I guess this is supposed to be some kind of elaborate dry humor sketch, intended to promote the safety of a Honda vehicle?

  • @ Chris, correct. It looks like a CO2 gas in the picture.

    @ Morli and Jason, This movie is made for promotion to show the six air bag on very small car.

    The good translation will find at " http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/honda-case-n-fits-airbags-to-yo... ".

    Which do you like para-shoot and air bag for the crash?

  • Developer

    Maybe randy can translate? I guess it's an ultra dry Japanese humor thing...

  • I just use this:

    Works well.

  • That would be CO2 gas me thinks, not nitrogen.

  • Cant see why this was allowed past when my blog for a scratch built 3D printer for drone parts was refused.

  • What.
