Hello, welcome to the Apple Inside a podcast. I'm William Gallagher. I'm

0:11.0

sponsor this week is Oracle and I'm joined as ever by Wesley Hilliard. And now, we need to talk

0:17.1

faster this week, I think, because lots have been going on. Let's start with, how are you

0:22.4

doing? How are you coping with this torrent of news and new beaters and everything? Doing fine. Yeah,

0:28.4

I could do my 1.5 speed voice, see if that works out. I don't think anyone would enjoy it. No,

0:35.6

we're on beta 5, which historically the odd numbers have been more stable. Don't ask me why. That's just how it works. That's the science. Oh, yeah, I didn't know that.

1:41.9

to control that flying vehicle with a joystick?

1:46.2

No.

1:47.3

It's just like a collective and...

1:50.0

It's like controlling it in real life, right?

1:52.4

So if you press down on the joystick, like press up on the joystick,

1:57.2

which direction does the plane go, the nose of the plane?

2:01.7

Well, I'm thinking helicopters, you would tilt forward to go fast, so the nose would go down in order to move faster.
