"So not actual CF wrap, but a CF-looking vinyl wrap.  Looks as nice without the cost, and I imagine the vinyl would strengthen things up a bit, especially in the thin spots. "

DrJeseuss commented on Melih Karakelle's blog post Ultra Reliable Switch Test with EDF motor
"It appears this is a slide ON/OFF (2 position) switch. As it's not momentary (i.e. button) I wouldn't think a debounce is needed. Case-in-point, typical slider ON/OFF switches for power systems do not include a debounce. This circuit is no…"

DrJeseuss commented on Melih Karakelle's blog post Ultra Reliable Switch Test with EDF motor
"I believe what this does is as follows (only speculation based on reading through): If switch is ON, circuit is OFF meaning the battery, etc is OFF as with a normal switch. Then when this switch is OFF, circuit goes ON applying power. He's stating…"

DrJeseuss commented on Chris Anderson's blog post Grounded! Model airplane flights halted while President Obama visits San Francisco
"My scenarios were certainly outlandish and quite unlikey (or are they), but my point is the same. Someone had to make a decision and put his job (and other's lives) at risk based on his call. So he played it safe considering possibilities others…"

DrJeseuss commented on Chris Anderson's blog post Grounded! Model airplane flights halted while President Obama visits San Francisco
"It's quite simple really... It's possible (albiet unlikely) that a person could have an RC aircraft with extended range carrying a damaging amount of explosive. This isn't a good situation. Another example would be a hang glider catching thermals to…"

DrJeseuss commented on Chris Anderson's blog post Researcher: Future of UAVs includes personal flying droids
"I know we've gotten off subject, but I agree with Brian here. Apples to Oranges... both deciduous trees with green eliptical leaves, roughly 30 feet tall at maturity, producing blossoms which result in a seeded fruit having a protective skin and an…"

"I agree, discussion is paramount. Without such discussion, DIYdrones likely wouldn't exist, nor space travel, possibly even the wheel. As such, in the name of evolution and progress, I agree to disagree."

"@Lew - I seeyour point... somewhat. However, you strike me as the guy who said cars are a dumb idea and we should stick to our horses (assuming there was such a guy). After all, had they done the statistics back then and realized what congestion…"

DrJeseuss commented on Kostas Alexis's blog post Wireless sensor network control Drones?
"I like the concept of "distributed computing" but had another concept in mind at first read. How about a "control" UAV that does all the waypoints, etc. Then each additional UAV would communicate with it for direction. This way the "swarm" UAVs…"

DrJeseuss commented on Chris Anderson's blog post DIY Drones mentioned in UK Daily Mail article
"I'm from "the West" and I'm slightly offended (not much actually) that we're viewed this way. We have the foresight to realize that a drone can roughly equal a piloted craft without the expense of life in the event of a failure. These drones have…"
