I recently took my drone out for a spin after a while and tried out new props, but unfortunately, I wasn't as steady as I thought. I gave a bit too much throttle and crashed into a branch, which my Marmotte would have handled easily. It's all part of the hobby, though the waiting for parts is the worst bit.

I've got a few drones on the shelf at the moment, including my Marmotte waiting for a new motor, and my original drone, the RealAcc Martian II, which looks like a heap of parts. I've also been trying out new props, which give me more flight time but require more throttle to take off. I'm still experimenting with different props and motors to find the perfect combination.

I recently shared a set of 3D-printed brackets on Thingiverse, designed to hold a pegboard using command strips. I was thrilled to discover that in just five days, the model had been downloaded over 1,600 times. It was an unexpected and delightful surprise to see so many people finding it useful.

I recently tackled an issue with Single Page Applications (SPAs) and linking to specific pages. By default, web servers don't handle this well, leading to 404 errors. For instance, trying to access https://example.com/users/ would fail because the server looks for a users directory.

To resolve this, I configured NGINX to redirect all requests to index.html, allowing the SPA to handle the routing. This setup ensures that links like https://example.com/users/ work seamlessly, providing a better user experience and maintaining clean URLs.
