I was browsing the store and saw this. When did this happen and will there be another drone?

    It's been gone for almost a year. My take is there are too many cheaper Chinese quads out there.
    I would not expect another.

    I suppose you have been. I should also mention that there are also plenty of drone kits out there based on breakdown kits.

    But none based on a Propeller. :)

    The humor this devolves into. 😂

    Is the elev-8 prop-based flight controller still available? Because that could easily be retrofitted onto a variety of generic quad frames. I know a guy who is using arduinos and has the carrier board wire-tied to the frame.

    Humor is an important vehicle in writing programs. You should see the screwy texts contained in the Fortune program data file for Linux.

    I believe so.

    But what is that big well dressed individual perched on your desk and watching you work, doing there?

    I should also mention that there is also a kit that's supportive of Lego.

    The Flight Controller , 80204, is no longer available.
