What a great video to usher in the one million sub milestone. Your success is well-deserved. I always look forward to your creativity, and just-technical-enough explanations. Keep it up. 👍

So excited to be a small part of your VTOL journey as a fellow VTOL addict myself, and to help you celebrate such a huge milestone. Congrats on 1M Tom!!

I love how you took the limitations of the PLA and created that really cool interior wing structure!

I am amazed by how smooth the transition from hover to plane mode is. The final product looks way too good for a DIY build! :O

This project has all the hallmarks of great engineering: a simplified design with very few moving parts, relying on well-known and reliable components but used in a clever way. Amazing work!

Another great one to add to your collection. Not many people can pull off 20-minute videos packed with the amount of information, entertainment, and enjoyment like you do. A heartfelt congratulations on hitting the 1M mark. You should liquefy the gold play button they send you and use it to coat the mirror on your first homemade space telescope!

That wing design seems so utterly satisfying. So precise and light and what a perfect use of a 3d printer and its capabilities.

I'd love to see how you designed those wings as one continuous line, really smart way to get rid of the oozing problem!
