- Just an update on everything going on. There is never a slack period at the Gigafactory. Plenty of vehicles ready for shipment but few car carriers.

Sweet drone shots, live footage helped me understand the layout
its awesome to see the site has stayed so dry allowing alot of progress especially paving work.
Thanks Brad
0:14 Southend. East diagonal. Freshly opened Sedak crates. 3 units per crate? Any other offers?
0:29. Southend. Around the perimeter and about 6’ 1.8m from the building at each column location is a coil of what I assume is grounding wire for the lightning suppression system. I don’t recall seeing these outside the building line of the existing factory.
Just another oddity about this building.
1:03. Southend, west. Level 2 perimeter floor beams with the glazing channel fixing lugs. 12 of these now on site. 4 more than constructed locations with embedded glazing channel fixing plates in the retaining wall.
2:41. Stamping, apron. White frame on the forklift. Seen arriving earlier in a video from Airwave Dynamics.
3:08. BIW roof. Pipes laid out across the roof. Pipes supports installed behind the parapet wall along at least 22 column bays.
3:28. Sedimentation pond. High water outfall. Same erosion control mat as being installed in the Cathode pond at 10:53. @ItsLilRobs has identified this as Flexamat.
4:37. Parking Garage, south. Masons/bricklayers batch plant relocated.
6:37. Westside. Tunnel Project. Red covered item on the MPV*
7:02. New EOL south. Run-off from the paving saw-cutting. Difficult to remove from asphalt.
8:32. Westside. Tunnel Project. Day 44.
8:35. New EOL transport yard. Cybertruck. I guess the wiper mechanism swaps sides for the RHD market.
9:56. Casting, diagonal corner. Hoisting pipes on the roof. See 3:08 for similar pipes.
10:10. Casting east, widened apron. Left. Crazy looking machine is (after additional searching) a ‘furnace tending machine’. Currently fitted with ‘slag skimmer/scraper’. Google that, and select images. The 3 large new furnaces deep enough to require new equipment.
Large recycling bin for dud castings.
Bottom. Looks like a die on the trailer.
10:13. Casting, east. Demolished apron. Grid pattern of holes. Initially thought these were exploratory holes to locate utilities etc. Now thinking they might end up being piles on such a regular grid pattern. Suction excavated to a depth where utilities might be encountered.
10:27. BIW, roof. Top. Behind the parapet. Current extent of supports installed for pipes.
12:06. Cathode west. Apron. Trailer containing some mobile plant. Hoses run into the building.
13:04. BESS switchyard. Knife switches controlling the mega-packs, most are open. Mega-packs mostly isolated.
13:19. BESS switchyard. Knife switches controlling the cables from the Mega-Vaults are open also.
*Multi Purpose Vehicle. As noted elsewhere by David Salisbury.
13:19 Good catch on the open switches to backup power feeds to the mega-vault. As for the rest of it.... Due to the generator that powered the control building being removed... I would speculate that the BESS substation is energized at least up to the the 24.9 kV circuit breakers (The grey box-like things under the steel structure seen @ 13:31), and possibly right up to the open switches. As for the Megapacks.... Most are definitely offline due to the open switches.
Thanks Brad
Thanks Brad!
Great footage, even better music
Of course, I watch this for Brad's great images. But then, there is also Brad's musical tastes. It's absolutely priceless!
Thank you!
1:48 The building is full length!!
1:48. So it is!
Good video and music Brad. I appreciate your updates.
Do you know what is the production schedule at GT? Is it two 12 hour shift M-F?
Thanks Brad!
BESS substation:
@ 13:40 9 out of 12 switches to the Megapacks are open. Difficult to see the 12 switches on the other side, but if you look carefully through the steel structure @ 13:31 9 out of 12 switches open as well. So out of 24 switches total... 18 are open, 6 are closed.
Megapacks:
@ 13:56 Caution tape around 5 rows (20 Megapacks).
Eastside of casting:
@ 10:18 (Open vault, bottom left) Looks like there may have been some progress on cable splicing.
Cathode:
@ 10:49 Good view of the new access road and the erosion control matting on the pond embankment.
Go Tesla!
With so much clutter around those switches it is really
hard to tell if they are open or not.
and what does this mean, generally?
@@BTSloan70 Yes, it is very difficult. Difficult to film the back 12 switches with a drone as well. You have to know where to look.
So @ 13:31 if you use the top bus bar on this side as a reference.... Then right below it there are several black lever-like things hanging down. Those are the open switches. If you can't see them, try moving slowly through 13:31 at 0.25 speed. The other thing to note is you can't see the closed switches directly. Since they are up in the vertical position and hidden. But you can infer their location by the gap in the open switches. Not sure if this will due to all the clutter.
@@natpainter8185 The open switches mean that most megapacks are definitely isolated and offline. Due to how the megapacks are connected.... Out of 68 megapacks, only 16 may be operational (2 groups of 8 megapacks). But even that is conditional. Providing that all circuit breakers are also closed. And there is no way to know from the drone view the state of the circuit breakers.
I loved the music today!
Merci👍👍👍
A thought just came to me. Does the extension of the main building mean the TESLA lettering on the roof won't be centered anymore?
Like 689 Working Saturdays, ELON has burr under butt to move faster, 2 or more 3 lines? Contractors lot is full,
When will it be finished
Thanks Brad
