I run everything from a computer power supply. That way I never have to worry about current. BTW, Capt. Jack, where did you pick up a power supply for 18 bucks?

I just got my order from Joel (aka Gym Ghost). He is so cool. He even included some plate rejects. He rocks.

that is such a sweet system i can just imagine being able to look around while flying an rc plane that would be amazing, and using that for real time control of a 3-axis would be sweet. down side is the module alone is $390.00 and if you don't have a good radio it's about another $400-500. dang now that i have seen this i want one though

For those that ordered kits.... I received a few emails that the instruction URL page not working. I just got off the phone with our IT consultant and he is looking into it. He suspects we may have an IP conflict once again. He said he needs one day to fix it. I will keep you posted!

MHO: would be to use PVC pipe to pose them . then you would use a straight 1/2" connector and a end cap with a hole in the cap to put to brain stem in. crank it down with a lock nut and washer and there you have it see my tutorial website for pics
