[quote=zk]Remote control airplanes.

I started in earnest early this year, and now a bunch of guys at work are getting into it. The fun is contagious. The technology of electrics (as opposed to gas) has come a long way, making it cheaper, less time-consuming (to build planes), and more fun. It’s really quite fun.[/quote]

I saw this, and was pretty excited about it…

Too bad it only works with iphone and ipad for now. (I am totally anti-apple right now :))

BUT… I got the the Android Open Accessory Development Kit with the Arduino hardware…So…looks like I’ll be tinkering a bit for the next couple of months…
