As a licensed A&P your willingness to move your hands and face around those props had me doing safety squints the whole time.

Hey there, I'm a member of the Betaflight development team, it's really cool to see innovative control schemes like this run on firmware that's otherwise meant for "traditional" freestyle/race quads!

Since all rotors are turning at a constant speed you can: <br>1. Run them all off a single large motor with belts to each rotor. <br>B. Overlap the rotors.

I just wanted to say, my career is due to your hybrid boat video 2 posts ago. I saw the Seasats segment and realized they are in my city, went to the website and saw a position that's absolutely perfect for me.<br><br>I applied and 3 weeks later I have my first career level job doing something I absolutely love, and the company is fantastic.

You know what would be really cool to watch you build? An autonomous long-range blimp or airship!

I'm on a nursing contract in Seattle right now and a lot of my patients are between Lake Washington and Sammamish. Lol. Every time I drive by, I look for tiny boats.

It's crazy that I haven't missed watching a video on your channel for 13 years. "Servo Driven RC Rover - RCTESTFLIGHT" was the first video I watched. That's insane. No other channel im subscribed to even comes close. I was single with no children back then. Now I'm married with 3 children and 3 dogs, two pigs, 6 goats, 4 highland cows, 7 ducks, and a bunch of chickens that constantly multiply. lol.
