(...) I have built not a plane but a helicopter that does fly (sort of) which is remotely controlled. Here are some recent photos: (URL) you can see from the pictures, the helicopter does not fly free. It is attached to a cantilevered arm that uses (...) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Thought I would let you guys know that a MindStormer by name of SeriousDamage claims to have built a helecopter that really can fly. He's uploaded it to the MindStorms site: (URL) he sent me some pictures I'm hosting for him at my site for two (...) (22 years ago, 23-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics)
