New prototype under control of SRV-1 Blackfin camera board with 802.11g radio, with smaller himaxx 2805CR coaxial motors.

Once battery and motor issues are resolved, we'll add accelerometers for attitute and a gyro for yaw

Blakebrough's Winged Self
Blakebrough's Winged Self hovers like a flying carpet controlled by the artist's body movements. This is a real flying platform based on the 1950s vertical flight experiments of Charles Zimmerman proving the feasibility of a simple aircraft flyable by anyone capable of riding a bicycle. You can see it in person at The Big Chill festival this summer.
