Open Source Quad Copter. AKA What I was Really Doing in Austria & Slovenia.

I'm attending the Broadband in Cities and Towns Conference that Jabari Simama hosts each year, having just arrived back stateside from a speaking tour and series of strategy workshops in Austria and Slovenia. My friend Helga Schmidt documented one of the (many) highlights of my trip -- Andreas Marksteiner's open source based quad copter. Imagine deploying solar nodes to rooftops in 2 minutes -- the quad copter currently only has 1-2kg of lift, but as a proof of concept it's quite interesting -- plus, it was incredibly cool to see this tool in action.
