@jamie_gaskins This is happening BEFORE the tasks are executed, i.e. before the xxx_helper file is loaded.

@semanticist Don't know. I'm told they are "brushless moters"

Wonder what's inside the ProtoX nanoquadcopter? Essentially its a battery taped to a circuit board:

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@wyattearp @ferggo @joerocklin Right … looking for the best path forward.

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@ferggo @joerocklin @wyattearp Drones in question: Estes ProtoX on the left, Hubsan H107C on the right.

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@ferggo @joerocklin @wyattearp Right, the AR Drone is not the problem. I want to programmatically control a 2.4 GHz RC drone.

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@barelyknown Other tasks could be running tests … why make default special?

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@mr_urf Well, then it was certainly successful.

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@gavinmontague But shouldn't that decision be made by the tasks themselves. This is done before any of the tasks are executed.

In a Rails project, why does Rails choose to run "rake" and "rake default" in env="test", and "rake anythingelse" run in env=development???

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@joerocklin @wyattearp @ferggo Yep, hadn't seen the details before. However, the RF stuff is for a ProtoX drone, not an AR drone.

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@ferggo @wyattearp @joerocklin I.e. turn it into a 2.4 GHz RC Controller?

@mattetti @drbrain i just got another Power Rake query yesterday. #thefunneverends

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@poteland @abrilproruby @soveran Awesome! Looking forward to seeing you!

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@cecilia930uy @p9k De nada!

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

@dustyburwell agree with awesome. Its takes a bit more skill to fly it tho (over the AR Drone, which is dirt easy)

[Jim Weirich @jimweirich]

Evidently, if you have enough drones in the house, they begin spawning little ones. (AR Drone by an Estes Protox)
