Great minds thinking alike. ;-) That's how I know the motor command output looks reasonable. I also pushed the joystick around and watched the outputs increase and decrease according to which way I pointed the joystick.
I blithely assured Doug that even *he* wouldn't pick up Gizmocopter when it was running. I sure wouldn't. Leave it to the safety officer to risk painful cuts and bruises in the pursuit of air under the gear.
What's the rotor tip speed, again? :-)
