Agreed for the RC flying. This is not a brainstorming technique,
rather, I am trying to see why this ability to automate a relatively
powerful but cheap piece of equipment has not been more used by
hobbyists.
I am actually thinking of several different project, at least two of
them use powerful rotating motors and do not need to run for hours.
The first one is indeed a battle bot of some kind. The second is a
robot that would climb on walls or cliffs (the hand drill serves at the
feet of the robot.) Both of these, I think require, a cheap way to do
drilling. Since I am on the cheap, I see this hand drill solution as
pretty ideal.
