RC helicopters auto-rotate just like full scale ones. Drones are far more akin to an Osprey, in which the loss of an engine or some control system is typically an “everyone’s dead” scenario.

And I’m saying it can’t be done, like every engineer on the planet who doesn’t try to sell his plans to billionaires.

Actually, otterman brings up a good point. A break in the cable at the geosync orbit would cause the cable to fall and wrap most of the way around the Earth. A thin cable wouldn’t be too bad, but a thick cable tens of meters in diameter would destroy anything on the equator like a long, stretched-out bomb. It’s a lot…

Thank you. The last thing I saw Bourdain cook was a mediocre looking baked chicken.

Having a cooking show isn’t exactly a high benchmark of success.

Has Bourdain ever had a cooking show? I don’t think so.

As a taxonomist, 4-6 a year seems way too high. Depending on the number of specimens in a group, just borrowing material and a first pass through it could take a year.

In the customer reviews,

The questions/reviews are killer. Do not miss them! The clear winning comment: “Did you know that irradiated cats have 18 half lives?”

BTW, it has the best single review on all of the internet.

You just gave me the most fabulous costume idea for my group of friends next Halloween....

Awesome. How did you get a picture of my kitty?!

Same here, we’ve had several calls to stop dorm students from using this. They all say the same thing. “I didn’t know it was illegal” That tells me they didn’t read the small disclaimer print on the bottom of the page that states that Popcorn Time might not be legal everywhere.

The word is, he cut Huey and Louie out of their end of the deal and they haven’t spoken since.

As a former Airman that worked in the 111th Fighter Wing @ Willow Grove in the 1990’s, I am happy that you enjoyed your regular A-10 airshows. :-)

I was an Ammo troop and operated the GFU-8/E 30mm Ammunition Loader, affectionately known as the ‘Dragon’, regularly. It is a true piece of anvil technology from the 1970’s…

The F4 was proof that with enough thrust even a brick will fly.

Just ran over and read that myself.. super interesting considering how deep they are in the 328p ecosystem for their product lineup. Thanks for pointing that out!

I’d bet its more of a replacement for the 32u4 powered Leonardo lineup since they’ve discontinued pretty much everything except for the Micro now.

thank you for your service
