"Just watched your excellent videos. The winder geometry And capabilities are comparable to systems I used costing several orders of magnitud higher. Nice system."
"Hello x-winder,
Does the system come with software to calculate the geodesic for a non-slip path fOr the automated filament winding on arbitrary radial profile? I did that for a research project back in 1987. Would be interested in helping you with…"

"Hi Bill,
Does the APM Planner 2.0 replace the Ardupilot / Arducopter etc suite? Or is it just another way to go? What are major differences? Why should I switch? Will it work tith the old APM 1?"

"Forrest that duration is simply amazing! Especially with all the altitude changes. Did I miss something or could a lot more flight time have been attained without the extra energy up and down, etc...Why didn't you just let the APM fly 3 way points…"

"Thanks Shyam, Very Nice Work especially for just a 2 quarter class.
I know a little of the history of quads / multicopters, and you are absolutely right, a lot of it is repeating history. For instance the first Quadcopters were made in 1904…"
