Is the UAV race still on for Tuesday? Still at 7? I'll be cutting class early for it, so I just wanted to double check the if/when details.

It's on.  George and I are the only confirmed entries.  If any of the other entries make it, it'll be a bonus.  We'll also need some help with track setup ~7.  We're actually pretty happy with the track setup and hope it can be used for ongoing races/competitions every month or so.
Thanks,

Just for the record, I'd leave secondary education as a higher priority over this initial UAV race.  There will be more and more likely better races in the upcoming months.

Yeah,  This may be more of a crash and burn than a race ;-)

BTW, I have 2 UAVs ready.  The second one may be too fast though considering we have never test run any of these.

90% of the reason to watch a race is to see a crash!

If anyone wants to bring more cars to tear up, I'll be showing a real quick way to mod RC cars to UAVs.

+1 I like your system of plus-oneing an email.

Yeah, that's probably the better choice. I'll be by after class with my non-working car.

Does anyone have video of the (cough) race?  I checked UStream and all it says is we were live last night.
