  1. You'd probably benefit from making the propeller 30% smaller while cutting a new foamboard that is about the same size (but with smaller holes obviously). That would reduce the consumed current (which is proportionate to the torque).

  2. Please make an airship, one with a candle-powered hot-air-balloon instead of helium or hydrogen, and another one with an aluminium-foil (the commercial-grade one, the kind used in disposable single-use baking trays) balloon, and make small-scale experiments which to simulate real-life use-cases like using less power to control the airship like a drone, or using it to pass above rough terrain (i.e. mountains scaled down in the shape of a house or wall) using less power than an airplane carrying the same weight and which would need a runway. Then please compare it with a VTOL airplane. All of them RC.

  3. whoa whoa whoa cease and desist??? that makes no sense whatsoever, on what grounds? you should publish the letter, you have tons of smart people who enjoy your videos and it would be great if that could be fought so that the next guy down the road doesn't get hit with something similar. how impotent and misguided. though iir, US copyright law does stipulate that if a copyright holder doesn't protect their copyright, they can lose it, maybe it was about that? anyway, just total waste of everyone's time and i'm sure very stressful for you.

  4. Love the use of the CNC here. Just wondering tho… ever got your bits jammed with the blue film backing? I remove mine but I wonder if leaving it at the back while cutting gives you cleaner cuts.
