If you were to build the exact same helicopter here based on those parts what would be the cost vs what’s the device on Mars cost? Also, I know plenty of solid engineers who I could build one thing based on that, obviously not taking atmosphere and G-forces into account to get there.
Also Linus finally got his progeny to Mars. That’s a pretty cool accomplishment:
“What have you built?”
Well, I invented one of the most prolific operating systems the world has ever seen, but not just this world - there is a helicopter on Mars that is flying due to the seeds which I planted that day...”
What have you built?

Good rundown of how it was built: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhsZUZmJvaM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhsZUZmJvaM
