Helicopter Repair Day

I love the phrase “Big Size”.

A neat little package arrived today from Hong Kong. This contained an unbroken version of the bit of my helicopter I smashed a week or so ago. I thought it would take a minute or so to fit the replacement. Not so. We had to remove a little metal pin from a little plastic thing, and then put it back without any damage.

We got one out of two, but it the craft is now mostly mended. It doesn’t quite hang in the air like it used to, but that is because the stabiliser bar is now stiffer than it use to be and so I’ll have to loosen that bit. But it is a lot more mended than it was.

When is this going to be steered from the u-net framework?

Oooh! Project! I might just have a go at that. Not sure if the MicroFramework is fast enough to make the IR waveforms, but it sure could control the transmitter........
