hey guys for this video lenovo sent me
some of their cool new moto mods
including their brand new smartphone the
moto z force so i brought you out to the
middle of the Nevada desert to turn the
Z force into the G Force by strapping it
to an oversized rocket and sending it to
20,000 feet now if you haven’t seen
these moto mods before they’re actually
pretty cool and they sent me three
different kinds the first one is called
the JBL sound boost and this is like a
speaker that clips on to the back of
your phone and totally amplifies the
sound the difference in the phone’s
volume before and after the mod is
substantial this one’s the Hasselblad
true zoom lens featuring a 10 time
optical zoom which means from a safe
distance you can still get the really
tight shots you need the third mod is an
insta-star projector so you can capture
this footage and play it back on a
screen up to 70 inches wide it’s very
cool so the time has come to strap our
cell phone to a rock and this is what
we’re going to be working with here this
is a ten and a half foot long rocket 60
pounds in weight and fueled by a motor
that’s going to deliver 750 pounds of
thrust if you’ve seen my series on
building the randomizer rocket you
probably know I’m pretty dang proud of
this thing but the funny thing is in
this case my randomizer isn’t even as
big as the motor in this thing the sugar
rockets for my randomizer cost anywhere
between a dollar to a dollar fifty to
make the motor for this thing cost over
seven hundred and fifty dollars and
here’s why it’s an N class rocket motor
weighs about 26 pounds burns for four
seconds and puts out 750 pounds of
thrust so we need an extremely reliable
way to secure our phone to the rocket
and for that we’re using duct tape I
also made this little ABS form on my
vacuum forming machine I literally just
heated up a piece of plastic in the oven
stuck it over top of the phone and turn
on my shop vac and that made a perfect
mold of the shape of the phone you can
see I cut a hole through the side here
so we can remove the phone and put it
back in place and I also cut a hole out
of the front here still when the phone
clicks into place we get the full field
of view as the rocket launches to 20,000
feet and the drill to hold on the side
so as it’s recording we can just verify
it still going before we send the rocket
into outer space no idea if it’ll work
or not but the Moto Z force has a
shatterproof screen so if any cell phone
is going to be the right candidate I
think the
is it let’s go strap it up check this
out guys we got the phone mounted to the
rocket we use duct tape and electrical
tape to secure this thing and here’s the
idea
we made this slit in the side so that we
can pull the phone out get it recording
and slide it back into place just before
the launch and we’re going to secure it
with a little more duct tape just to be
sure
so our phone is strapped to the rocket
and everything’s in place the only thing
left to do now is flip the switch this
is the moment of truth guys will at
launch the Z force is getting some
g-force
[Music]
go check out the damage man that rocket
blasted a crater and sprayed dirt until
tomorrow that is incredible
perfect slate I can’t wait to get that
phone back and see what kind of footage
we got the only question is now are we
going to get the rocket back more
importantly are we gonna get the phone
back in one piece let’s go find out
so the parachute deployed the rocket has
landed right now we’re on our way to
find it using one of these things oh man
that’s awesome okay well we found clays
rocket so we just found it one of our
buddies Rockets went straight into the
ground we’re hoping that didn’t happen
ours
oh sweet nectar we found the rock of the
where the heck’s the phone oh that’s
where the phone used to be oh no no no
no it’s gone there I can’t believe it
survived this is amazing guys this just
survived a mock flight I am really
anxious to see if that recorded any
footage not quite sure look at that
still recording that means we got it
guys
I cannot wait to see if this works
that is cool we got it I almost hit
delete I am gonna put this away and
transfer it and take this home and play
it on the insta share projector on my
hotel room wall nice job guys that was
amazing whoo fuck we did it
the little beeping buzzing and whizzing
computers on this thing just told us
sixteen thousand eight hundred feet is
actually how high this smartphone just
went it’s a supersonic smartphone so
there you have it guys the world’s first
Mach 2 cellphone mod it’s actually
really impressive we pulled this off you
thanks so much for joining me for this
video and I’ll be looking for you the
next one fuck you then out here in the
middle of the desert you wouldn’t
believe how long it took a stack to find
this thing
