I recently presented a brief overview of my current Arcticopter project and some of the underlying technology. I added some notes and uploaded the slides here. This slide got the most laughs, and there's a cautionary note at the end.

Thanks again for noticing!
Here's where people seem to be posting the scary pics:

and somebody posted this nice pool-noodle based prop holder which in addition to keeping props immobilized while working on a model keeps the blades from snagging during transport.
BTW, nice photo!
It's a good idea to use a portable table, like the one I have. It's convenient to put all the stuff on it rather than on the ground. And it prevents laptop, transmitter and so on from dust and sands and thus scratches.
I.S. and Chris, thanks! I'll correct that.
I.S.: That's correct
Hey, that's me!
In your slide you mention Altitude Control as "To Do". Obviously you've already got that with APM. Did you mean something else?
Nice slides! But the last one is shocking, be careful with it.
I also did the similar presentation for University conference. I'd like to share the scheme of APM which I made. It might be useful for someone. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/28761563/scheme.jpg
