+Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ +Bryan Burnett   Idea for a show!  How about an episode on how to modify the Parrot AR Drone to add a good control board and make it actually fly?  There are so many with bad main boards this would be a popular show!  The motor ESC's are out on the end of stalks with the motors and have power, ground and control signals going to them.  The worthless main board could be tossed out and all the power and grounds connected to one of those little power distribution boards.  Connecting a new control board looks pretty easy if the interface signals going to the motor ESC's could be figured out.

Pixhawk used to sell the PX4IOAR - AR.Drone Shield but it's out of stock everywhere.
