From an engineer and futurist, an impassioned account of technological stagnation since the 1970s and an imaginative blueprint for a richer, more abundant future The science fiction of the 1960s promised us a future remade by technological innovation: we’d vacation in geodesic domes on Mars, have meaningful conversations with computers, and drop our children off at school in flying cars. Fast-forward 60 years, and we’re still stuck in traffic in gas-guzzling sedans and boarding the same types of planes we flew in over half a century ago. What happened to the future we were promised? In Where Is My Flying Car?, J. Storrs Hall sets out to answer this deceptively simple question. What starts as an examination of the technical limitations of building flying cars evolves into an investigation of the scientific, technological, and social roots of the economic stagnation that started in the 1970s. From the failure to adopt nuclear energy and the suppression of cold fusion technology to the rise of a counterculture hostile to progress, Hall recounts how our collective ambitions for the future were derailed, with devastating consequences for global wealth creation and distribution. Hall then outlines a framework for a future powered by exponential progress—one in which we build as much in the world of atoms as we do in the world of bits, one rich in abundance and wonder. Drawing on years of original research and personal engineering experience, Where Is My Flying Car?, originally published in 2018, is an urgent, timely analysis of technological progress over the last 50 years and a bold vision for a better future.

Download Indoor flying for beginners Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Going flying – even in winter when it's stormy and snowing outside - is a long-cherished dream of model pilots. Until just a few years ago, the fulfilment of this dream of flying indoors was reserved for only a few specialists. Only the discovery of the material "Depron" for model flying, brushless motors and LiPo batteries as well as the ever smaller and lighter components for the RC system make possible flying weights and performances with which even demanding aerobatics, including 3D flight, can be realised. This book makes it easier for the interested model pilot to get started in indoor (aerobatic) flying and gives tips on equipment as well as on building an indoor flying model. From the content: • Silhouette or full fuselage, self-built or finished model? • CFRP profiles, Depron, surface design • Motor, controller, batteries, connectors, charging station • The RC components - transmitter, receiver, servos, rudder linkages, pushrods, cable linkages, • Tips on material processing and assembly • Tips for flying in - flying technique in the hangar and first aerobatic manoeuvres • Illustrated repair instructions for a damaged front wing • Requirements for the hall, contact persons, safety rules, hall regulations, • "preparation" of the hall and special features of the unfamiliar environment • Tabular compilation of the models used
