North Stand Construction Discussion

This is a bit of a trial with a 360 camera hung from the drone.
You can move the screen around and look where you like.
No commentary just music at the moment as cant figure out how to get a voice on it.
Quality may not be the best, its still very early days with this

I've just viewed this on my newly purchased VR headset. Astounding!! Amazing work, and really let's you see how it all hangs together. Great work

Those of us who went to Maine Road are used to missmatched Symmetry. I used to like it when we had the old Kippax and Platt Lane stands, I found the stadium quirkyly endearing. Can't say the same about the new stands that replaced them though. I found them a cheap looking eyesore.

As for the Etihad, although it's mostly uniform in looks, I can't really take to it with the same affection. It has grown on me over the years, but...

Which is why it’s good to have three triple-decker stands and one double-decker. Would love it if we expanded even just one of the sides and joined up the corners. Then we’d have a massive triple-decker, two big triple-deckers and a big double-decker. That’s got to be endearing.

Looks good and worth pursuing.
Found the rotors distracting at times, like you said the quality isn't as good
I suspect that the frame rate is less than normal
Certainly would be great for wedding videos and house sales

I can increase the frame rate, the problem is it took 4 hours to upload so i can probably double that if i increase it but definitely worth a try to see if there is a jump in quality.
YouTube absolutely kills the quality, if i play the file straight from the laptop to the tv it is crystal clear and in the 8k it was recorded at.
I will do a walk around one with it at some point, then the selfie stick also disappears like the drone mount has.

Get on board
 
Good morning everyone!

Are we all excited about seeing the North stand from inside the Etihad since the end of last season, and the changes that have taken place to the North stand since then?

The camera is charging up as I write.

Don’t forget to get as many pictures as you can from where you are stood and sat around the Etihad.

Up the blues on Blue Moon, North stand, day. :-)

Do you think it will look much different ?

Yes, it is.

I was there a few weeks ago inside the Etihad if you remember, and the difference to the inside of the Etihad is massive.(arf!)

There weren’t any seats installed then.

I can only speak for myself, but I was blown away by it.

And don’t forget, we’ve all followed the build on this thread.

1000’s of City fans who will be going today haven’t followed this thread.

They are in for a very nice shock and surprise, mate. :-)

On one of the club videos the presenter mentioned the new roof will ramp up the noise level significantly. Never sure if that's just someone gone into marketing hyper bull shit mode. We'll hear the reality today ie if the acoustic design of the new roof amplifies the crowd noise, and that's before 7K additional punters all signing classics like "Follow, follow, follow City's taking the piss and you know..."
