GimbalBot is hanging by an elastic band from the rafters in my basement, secured below using steel cables with plenty of slack. My benchtop power supply, a massive LiPo battery, and a hastily thrown together USB mouse based (no joke) interface are all strapped to an adjacent sawhorse. Everything is ready to go for the inaugural hover test.
Something had to go wrong, right? Well... I didn't quite take enough slack out of one of the ESC leads, and it got sucked into the lower prop upon first startup:
Time for bed. More testing Wednesday.
