About Me:
Well... I used to fly model airplanes but I haven't done it since 199X... I ended up here because I heard about Arduino and got interested in the stuff that was being done with it. Since 2010 I have most of the parts needed to build an ArduCopter, but I still haven't sat down to build it (it's a shame). I have a business background but I am totally into technology, innovation, entrepreneurship and, well, anarchism. I maintain (sorta...) two blog: http://planoa.wordpress.com - focused on start-ups, entrepreneurship and business in general http://copirraite.wordpress.com - focused on DIY and hacking
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

"@robert I think it was just for fun (maybe he'd like to post a cool youtube vid...:)). i actually mis-translated.. it wasn't a border crossing, just a highway police patrol station he passed by."
"don't know how you say it in spanish, but in portuguese it is "idiota" :P"
don't forget to watch the video in the linked site :DThis guy was arrested by the police for piloting his R/C plane on a busy highway, while on a bike driven by his girlfriend.According to the reporter the news crew spotted the couple trying to…
"Manoel, acho uma boa ideia e imagino que a comunidade DIY Drones entenderia a necessidade de forums específicos para certos idiomas. Como você colocou, aqui tratamos de um assunto complexo e a barreira da língua pode dificultar o aprendizado.

I haven't built my quadcopter yet, I plan on returning to this project this month.

"Russians are geniuses... it's impressive what they can do with so little capital.
One remarkable "space dispute", for me, that shows what I'm saying is how Americans and Russians tackled the same problem: writing in space.
While Americans spent…"

"Fala Sandro, tudo bem?
Legal ver um brazuca por aqui, ainda mais envolvido com um dos projetos.
Eu conheço o DIYDrones há algum tempo. Também comecei a brincar com o Arducopter antes dele integrar ao DIYDrones, mas não terminei de construir o meu…"

"Gary, thanks for the tip, I didn't know that project."
"I was thinking about this the other day ad that imaged just reminded me of that thought... is anyone using UAVs for open source mapping? Images taken by them could replace images from satellites."
"What do you guys think about this design. It allows the use of only one wing. The two front motors tilt up and the two back motors tilt down."
"Hey Miguel, how's it going?
I bought the first parts of my quad. I got the 4 motors and ESCs from HobbyKing. Soon I'll get the gyros and accs.
One thing I've got to look into is the TX/RX... I have an "old" Futaba T6XA. Do you think it does the job?…"

"Just bought the first parts for the Aeroquad project (motors, ESCs, propellers and some tail booms). I hope I didn't make any stupid decisions. What do you think about the parts I bought?
