Personally, I'd love any of the following: Arduino, Amarino, Hackable RC Helicopter, Kickstarter funding. Basically gifts as platforms to hack more.
Other is allowing these hacks to be shown to people whom we respect and get feedback. Eg: "What does Jack Dorsey think about my bit coin hack."
- joshu 14y agoSo I'm insanely fond of these cheapo RC helicopters. Syma S107Gs etc. What about a hackathon ABOUT those helicopters? Everyone gets helicopters, there's lots of parts, and the winner does something cool?
- alagu 14y agoA RC helicopter-hackathon is definitely. I could think of tons of things that could be built over these tiny ones. I haven't yet tried RC helicopters, but I'd definitely start on one.

- swah 14y agoDo you think they're substantially different from the cheapos from Dealextreme? http://www.dealextreme.com/p/usb-rechargeable-3-ch-palm-size-mini-r-c-helicopter-set-ir-remote-32694 http://www.dealextreme.com/p/usb-rechargeable-3-ch-palm-size... (Just because those I can get shipped to my country for free...)
- stewie2 14y agowow, interesting. how hackable are they?
- joshu 14y agoThey are pretty simplistic. Haven't tried to understand them. One problem is that they are infrared and not radio.
