Why aren't you a high paid engineer at some secret organization yet 😮 This is top notch innovation.

My headhurts just for watching the video. Can´t imagine how you have the patient to soldier through problem after problem. Great work, this is so interesting.

I was going to make a stupid comment about inventing a helicopter, but I have tip my hat and give you major kudos and praise for you knowledge, intelligence, logic, and drive. You are one of those amazing people that can take so many technologies and concepts and coerce them into a new paradigm that solves problems and invents new useful things. Keep researching and inventing!

2:20 The alternate solution to a 20-degree latency is to add another 340 degrees of latency.

I am even more impressed by how you managed to not only have spotlessly clean glasses but als recorded them free of any reflections. Seriously. I wondered for a minute what felt "off" for lack of a better word.

This is absolutely mind-blowing! The amount of engineering and custom firmware work required to make a single-motor drone fly is just incredible. Such an impressive project!
