Although this isn't engineering related, I thought I'd share with everyone a history project I made on a Vietnam war casualty: Paul Nelson. One thing I really liked about the project was that there were barely any restrictions or guidelines. We could make a poster, grow a tree, anything we wanted. For my casualty, there wasn't much information online, so I ended up calling numerous people to try to find out more about who Paul was during high school and the war. (All of the quotes in the video are from phone calls) The project gave me the opportunity to know Paul as a friend, even though I never met him. As the movie "Taking Chance" told it, "You're his witness now. Without a witness, they just disappear."

High School Pep Rally Air Lifted Banner
I brought my Tricopter to the pep rally at our school to bring cheer to new heights! The banner falls with a servo I hot glued to the rear boom, causing the banner to unravel and fall. All in all, the mechanism is super simple and easy considering the end result!
