On: Japanese engineers develop flying robotic orb

That's freaky as hell.

I've spent the last few months designing a spherical drone with counter-rotating props and Arduino controlled ailerons to direct the airflow... that looks nearly EXACTLY like the one in that video.

I still have the Sketchup files somewhere.

Now I have to go find something else that hasn't been done.

Finish the plans, put them on Thingiverse.com or something. Someone will build it and you'll be most satisfied to see it out there, I'm sure.

Yes, please do!
