Developer ArduCopter in Brazilian Sky
Here goes a little video of my recent flight!
Morning happy today with ArduCopter Beta. :)
Good time flying there, even with some wind. I needed to change the commands quickly sometimes because of wind, but the response of the IMU and firmware is awesome to keep it nice.
ArduCopter is awesome nice! And I'm not talking it as a member of the core team, but as an user. When you fly it, you'll understand why. Happy flights… Continue

3D Robotics ArduCopter pre-sales now up at the DIY Drones store
ArduCopter is now available for pre-sale in the DIY Drones store in the US, too. This is the same kit as the Fah Pah model, but without the APM board, which you must buy from Sparkfun as usual. (This is due to regulatory rules in the US).Added by Chris Anderson on October 28, 2010 at 5:51am — 17 Comments

Full metal copter first flights
First flight ends in a crash, but I attribute that to pilot error rather than a problem with the copter. This flight did bend one of the legs slightly. I believe the holes I drilled to reduce weight have compromised the strength of the leg. I will replace with solid pieces.
Second flight. No crash, and quite a stable… Continue

My hopes are to…

Open Source Business Model
My motion is that successful Open Source brands, such as Arduino, DIY, Linux etc... are the natural distributors of derived works, and should (therefore) encourage derived works specifically by hosting a marketplace for them - in which they charge a fee.
The argument in favor is that google searches and other reflections of mindshare will gravitate to the Copyright holders; derivative works are therefore… Continue
