07:45 AM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> I still haven't been able to get any motion out of the DMC mail that I put that message card into, I'm sure it's something stupid simple in the config but I can't seem to get the steppers to move.

09:51 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> Old school..
09:52 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> Nice little plane. With a bit of gyro help
09:52 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> Sully was doing figure eights in the field..
09:53 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> It is a bit fast because it is so small...

10:01 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> It works best to throw launch it
10:01 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> Especially now.. lol
10:06 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> I thought about an fpv drone - but he has been talking about how he likes flying airplanes.. So we will see if this sticks
10:08 AM bjorkintosh: ah that's a miniature flying machine.
10:09 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> yes - it is quite small
10:09 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> When I was slightly into this - mostly still gas - which is a pain. It is so much nicer now with electrics..
10:13 AM bjorkintosh: skunkworks I went to a model shop looking for some parts, and the owner of the shop told me not to call them toy planes, or model planes, but to refer to them as "miniature flying machines".
10:13 AM bjorkintosh: 'cause that is what it is.
10:15 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> lol
10:16 AM JT-Shop: skunkworks I have an electric "foamy" which is fun to fly
10:16 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> I think slightly bigger would be nicer - but it is a good start.
