I'm looking to purchase a YAAARC Y3MD kit, PC board or assembled unit.  I
recently found one of those discarded Barbie 2WD Quads and I would like try
some autonomous navigation before the snow starts flying.

Also, I finally got around to completing the rough code for my balance bot.
It implements a Kalman filter so I was initally worried that an AVR
Butterfly, even running at 8Mhz, would not be fast enough to keep up.
However, I timed the balance loop and each loop itteration completes with in
a couple of milliseconds.   So it turns out that the Butterfly has plenty of
cycles to spare, although, I have other issues, perhaps in regard to signnal
conditioning and/or filter tuning.

See you tomorrow night.
