I wanted to take a moment to recognize Joby Cook for all of his work and leadership. Joby is a architect, engineer, designer, craftsman and one hell of a motivator.

None of us have built anything like this before, but you wouldn't know that. There is so much to this feature that worked out perfect the first time, with the only tests done on paper with a pencil by Joby.

I'm truly impressed, respect!

Excellent pictures Stringer!

On a side note, sorry for the hijack:

Shawn is a professional but everyone else, please don't jump over the features. It's more dangerous than just trying to use the features as they were designed. If you mess up and get hurt, people are just going to assume the feature is dangerous and you're a hero rather than an idiot.
