Consider this review as a supplement to the Friday Night Lights review, it is very good. I bought this PTS version of the MTEK Flux, a ballistic helmet that costs $1800. This PTS version is a near 1:1 airsoft clone made of non ballistic ABS plastic. What makes this helmet special is that it is…

Skydio R1 Autonomous Drone

This video that Tested did on the new Skydio R1 has me impressed! The autonomy looks like it came out any futuristic movie you may have seen but brushed off and out of your mind because it always looked like just a neat Hollywood effect, but it appears that is now a reality with the…

Repetier settings for DaVinci 1.0 3D printer
