This Thursday, December 10th at 5pm PST we will be hosting a live HackChat about aircraft. If it’s man-made and it files, it’s on topic! Full scale and model planes, helicopters, multicopters, gyros, blimps and gliders will be on the agenda. Our host this week will be Hackaday Community Editor [Adam Fabio] who is also the author of this well-written blog entry. In addition to being an electrical engineer, [Adam] brings 30 years of experience as a Radio Control model enthusiast. Over the years he’s worked as a professional R/C Blimp Pilot for the New York Islanders Hockey team and as an aerial photographer. On the full-scale aircraft side, he’s designed radar and air traffic control software used to keep the skies safe over land and sea.
Aircraft HackChat starts Thursday at 5pm PST (here’s a timezone cheat sheet if you need it). Participating in this live chat is very simple.

If you’re not part of the channel, just go to the hacker Channel page, scroll to the bottom of the “TEAM” list in the left sidebar and click “Request to join this project”.
HackChat takes place in the Hacker Channel every few weeks and is a friendly place to talk about engineering and the projects you’re working on.
I am so down for this, need a few tips to properly finish my S500 build
“If it’s man-made and it files, it’s on topic!”
Is this a discussion about secretary bots? :D
There’s something weird about quick autobiographies written in third person. I’m not trying to be a grammar Nazi, I’m just pointing out that it threw me off a bit.
This sounds like it will be a cool talk.
I have to tell you, writing is was a lot weirder than reading it! I generally try to stick to the Hackaday standard of using the third person. It’s just me and the voices in my head here :)
Sometimes, rules are made to be broken. If the standard doesn’t work, try something else.
Oh yeah, the nice thing about standards, it there are so many to choose from. B^)
too bad that I am living in wrong timezone
