Favorite quote: "I also did some ghetto style heat shrinking with a very girly lighter."

unlike most if the people commenting.. I liked your solution, quick and dirty. I realize that you were just doing a proof of concept but you might want to first pick your power source so you can build a machine within the limitations of your weight. that said...I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

There is just something hysterical hearing "ghetto heat shrinking with a girly lighter" in your German accent... I like the subtle humor while learning a bit... nice job.

Woah I'm dying to see part two.

I liked how you created the structure out of wood skewers! I didn't think of that. Also, your testing arrangement is ingenious!

The heat shrinking with a girly lighter line was priceless. Nice rig up and good info. Subscribe buttan pressed.

Heaven! Your vid is just what I needed to convince my family I am not mad because of scavenging every printer and drive I stumble upon on the street ;-) Not sure if I will decide to replicate this 'copter but I will stay tuned to your contributions.

no Idea why so many thumbs down on this.... this was just a crude proof in theory. ... well done!!!.. why kill hours drilling holes for the props ,balancing ..control boards.. ect ect.. to find out the motors don't even have enough power to lift it ect..  ....  .I was just looking into using hard drive motors for the same ..thing.. and I'll end up making the same crude contraption..well tad more to control the hd's though.. ..and the hard drive motors have a screw hole already dead center =).. cept they way heavier..

Great engineering and creativity! I guess it is the cheapest and coolest electronic project i saw on youtube.
