Roboghost Terrifies Hapless Kids

Writing by Evan Ackerman on Tuesday, 2 of November , 2010 at 12:36 am

This is Mr. T. He’s a ghost. He’s also a robot helicopter. He was built more or less from scratch by Michael Colton over at Utah Aerials, using some motors, servos, a microcontroller, cabinet hinges, and zip ties. In other words, it’s pure genius.

One important thing to keep in mind: Mr. T is way, way scarier than a real ghost, because its hands are two SPINNING BLADES OF DEATH. Run children, RUN!
