Very interesting. I'd need a truck to take all the gear to the flying field and a very long extension cord. But one question remains. Right fist, turn right, left fist turn left and both fists go up. What do you do to go forward of move in reverse?  Put finger up nose for forward, put finger, err no, let's forget about reverse.

Actually this is pretty old technology. Years ago they were switching on lights or any household appliance using the mind, it's pretty straightforward today. It doesn't take a lot to turn that switch action into controlling a quad. Nothing was said about intensity. How to vary the speed going up etc. I'd imagine that's a little too advanced right now. I just remembered, I saw an experiment where they had someone playing table tennis on a monitor. He controlled the up and down of the bat. Similar to what was known as Pong many years ago. Strange thing, I've never seen a female doing these experiments, I wonder why ????  :giggle:    Stu

I'm sorry essaargee, are you answering my post? I'm rather confused as to what your post means. How does using one's brain for such things invite troubles? I'm not being rude I'm just curious as to your meaning.   Stu
