Elev8 in the new Servo magazine

JasonDorie

I was following a discussion thread about Erco being a recent addition to Servo Magazine, and saw an Elev8 V3 on the front page:

http://www.servomagazine.com/index.php/magazine/article/November2016_MultiRotorHobbyist-Training-for-Flight1

Forum member @geo_leeman talks about gathering weather data using a multi-rotor as the platform, and the Elev8 V3 is one of the flying platforms used.

Kinda cool to see it mentioned out in the wild, and the article is a good read.

Edit: I totally missed his review of the V3 in October, too: http://servo.texterity.com/servo/201610/?folio=44&pg=44#pg44

I think this is the thread he announced it in:

I totally missed that thread, probably because I saw "ESP8266" in the title and missed the "drone" bit.

Yea, as a moderator, I read them all.

I've been in the process of moving and haven't kept up on the forum, but I'm finally out in colorful Colorado! Anyhow, you'll see the ELEV8 being used as a platform in several articles that are in the queue. It's on the Feb. cover about adding FPV.

That's sweet!

Congrats!
