  1. Is the “2nd army in the world” really proud of that?

  2. The path from caterer to mercenary warlord is a tried and true path to advancement in Russian society. How bizarre.

  3. Yeah, fine dusty environment goes well with electronics.

  4. when you ask “what’s cooking?” in russia you never know what the answer will be…..

  5. Coordinates?

    Don’t be fooled by this example. There is a second “bread combine” in Tambov, Lermontov Street.
    Typical Russian propaganda fairy tale.
    Probably there was free office space and this has been rented now.
    The FPVs itself (according to the photos) …
    What tools for just mounting? I can see a mounting aid made from plywood, a caliper gauge and a holder for screw taps.
    Looks like a little bit more work, because the quality of the parts to be assembled is “Soviet”.
    A funny detail are the mains sockets mounted with the “mouth” upwards, below the containers with the tiny screws.
    That about Russian design and occupational security.
    Nothing against zip ties for mounting. But what is the white LED on the PCB for?
    The “Bekas” (maybe a Russian/English pun, because the translated name of this bird is “snipe”) quality
    may be subject for a later article, when one has been caught.
    When searching for “Bekas drones/беспилотники бекас” I found an article from June
    (oh, Russian propaganda reused story) with a photo from a building.
    Using the coordinates from above you can have a look with google streetview.
    So this object is the right one. Or they are lying consistently.
