    • Thanks, and yes, when I will reach the next step, I will show the result of course 😉
      Something like that are better shared than hide.
      If someone want more details on any part of this project, don’t hesitate, promised won’t bite 😉

      • Don’t use gyro and/or accel in chucks, it’s not a good idea.
        I already worked around this, and you definitely can’t use gyro/accel, because there is too much movement, to much information without any sense.

        By the way, I found something more interesting: vibration sensor https://www.adafruit.com/product/1766

        there is 3 variation, for easy, medium and hard trigger, and it will be much better. I can’t buy these right now, I have enough wire soldering to do, but clearly it’s my next move.

    • Othy this is awesome! Please keep up informed with your new prototypes!

  • I received an amazing gift for christmas, the best gift I dreamt of: two flowtoys flowlight nunchucks! I played with them under the storm (it’s raining three days long now), and it’s just pure pleasure. I’m so happy with them!

  • I visited the ER Saturday for a head injury, and went out 5h30 later, with to staples in the scalp. It’s not a flow injury (just a DIY mistake), but it reminded me all the previous ones I made during training, or in performances with fire. I hurt myself a big bunch of time, but hopefully without sequel.

    And you, did you flow without trouble, or…Read More

    • I’m sure I gave myself 1 or 2 concussions with the chucks lol

    • Wow othy!

      I’ve never seriously injured myself with any prop. Although, I have sustained some burns – nothing that I needed hospital for. I have done some serious wear and tear on my elbows from using oak chucks for years though.
