In general, I don't know how to use the list of inventions
on mindstorms.lego.com.  All I get is the idea that yeah
someone did this and that.  No discussions on the issues:
how it was done, problems solved, etc, no details.  I guess
for that you have this list, books, and your own experiments.

For example, does the helicopter built by SeriousDamage track
its own environment, or does it just crash into walls?  How
many times can the motor sustain that kind of drops before it
breaks, or does he only fly it over carpits no more than two or
three feet above ground?  etc.

Thought I would let you guys know that a MindStormer by name of
claims to have built a helecopter that really can fly. He's
uploaded it to the MindStorms site:

http://mindstorms.lego.com/eng/inventions/invention.asp?id={A4558A7F-E39D-4419-B862-8ED68F26BC9B}&slotN=3

and he sent me some pictures I'm hosting for him at my site for two weeks.
(after that I'm taking them down)

Just FYI, maybe some food for thought. :-)
