Info- Were you able to recover a copy of the quad rotor build from Barneys site? I would pay to get a copy of that to use as a reference...
No need to pay man.
I am sending everything to RiverDave and his web site Gruru's It will be put in HTML instead of posts. Anyone can us it on their web sites that wants to.
GoFastRacer saved all of the text and I had the photos. just needs to be put back together.
Sweet! Any idea when it will be ready?
That's definitely a great 'How-to' info. Can't wait for my copy!
