Solar dancer in the making


Yesterday I started work on a new project:A solar dancer.It is a very challenging build,more mechanically than electronically.The circuit itself is not a difficult one(I will post it later since I can't find it on the web right now).The tricky part is the balancing of the aluminium piece I'm using(including all the ad-ons).
Edit November 2nd:The Frankenvogel(as I named it)is as good as ready.I just need some feathers for the finishing touch.Today was a pretty sunny day so I had a chance to test it.
Weight is definately an issue when building these solar-dancers,mine gently moves,so the next one will be a much lighter build.
