Nicely done. Bravo!

9-26-2006 in 11:28:49 at 12.100.41.91An interesting enhancement would be to telemeter back to the ground the pitch, yaw and roll of the plane to drive a pilot’s chair pitch, yaw and roll (with some inversions) using gravity to give a complete sensation of forces to the pilot

9-26-2006 in 14:04:47 at 70.244.40.143maybe the military would catch on to fly these little planes without detection from the ground have two cameras that tilt and one would be to zoom in to the smallest detail and the other would be to keep it level in the air would have to have two camera operators one being the pilot in command the other the camera controller for the zoom feature. also would need to have a ity bity generator to keep the motor going without having to use the batt. the batt. would be a backup if something fails i would recomend two batt. and two recievers working symultainausly. it also needs to have a global positioning system using just a laptop so they can fly this unmanned aerial vehicle to several thousand miles without worry use the hubble telescope to zoom down on the plane real time video when u want to to know the land features this way the military can go hunt down osoma bin laden without him hearing the plane. the motor would have to be brushless and super quiet with a real effient carbon fiber prop. the paint scheme would have to appear invisible to the eye so you can’t detect it in the sky and another thing try to make it invisible to radar although that would be hard with the electric motor as it would give off some energy and would be detected on the radar screen. i think the military out to look into something like this without geussing where the hell osoma bin laden is

9-27-2006 in 21:09:37 at 66.190.242.157WOW! I produced a video in 1997 called INCAB-RC Videolink. A complete instruction guide for building and installing a videoink in an RC Aircraft. Supercircuits still sells it I believe. We also used the IO display but I never had the opportunity to complete my passion as this inventor has. True, full on VR flying! I salute you sir to an outstanding job in the simplest and cleanest install imaginable on the civilian market. Thank you sir. Dave Upton

Perhaps less fun compared to the airplane but still pretty interesting. Probably a better solution if you want to spy on somebody. […]
