Not at all knocking it whatsoever - obviously a fucking dope work of art, but I assume you model it all out in some kind of 3D drone software and just tell them all when and where to fly in relation to each other and they do the work from there automatically?

Actually, I'd love to see some youtubes on how that's done, Im sure its fascinatingly more complex than that

Nope, every drone is controlled independently by a different operator. They're that good. There are actually fairly new doctorate programs at some schools on the west coast for drone operation. It's so insane that it's almost unbelievable.
