The software used in this Instructable consists of two applications, Puzzlebox Synapse and Puzzlebox Brainstorms. The former connects to commercially available consumer-grade EEG headsets, such as the NeuroSky MindSet or Emotiv EPOC. The latter connects to the transmitter chip extracted from the RC Helicopter's remote control and issues flight commands and settings based on detections received from Puzzlebox Synapse. Software (including source code) is available for download from the project website:
Required Materials
- Radio Controlled Helicopter
- EEG headset such as the NeuroSky MindSet or Emotiv EPOC
- USB-to-Serial converter cable, capable of being set at an arbitrary baud rate
- An oscilloscope
- A logic analyzer
- Soldering Iron and Solder (optional)
- Connection cables and prototyping board (optional)
- Puzzlebox Synapse and Puzzlebox Brainstorms software
Note: Items in bold can be found in the Glossary and Link Index listed the final step of this Instructable.
Before beginning, unpack the helicopter, charge and install the batteries, and make sure everything is in good working order before beginning to examine or disassemble any individual components.
You should also familiarize yourself with the basic controls of your helicopter, including how trim settings operate and basic flying characteristics.
Note: The RC Helicopter used in this Instructable is a Blade mCX2 :
That's really very great....
This is epic what you've got here. Im gonna make it for my high school exhibition and i live in the united arab emirates. Please can you suggest me the specific name of the eeg headset by neurosky.. because online there are many and i am not sure which to buy specifically. Please reply to this asap.
Looking forward to your co-ordination
You can find more details on our website, as this project has evolved quite a bit in the years since this Instructable was posted: http://puzzlebox.io/orbit
Thanks a ton x)
thank you awesome projec
can you use a mind flex headset
for the neurosky mindset
Please refer to these websites for more detail:
do you only need the eeg headset? and is it possible to program it to go forward when you think "forward" and turn right when you think "turn right"? if so could you post instructions on how to do so? sorry if I'm asking stupid questions, I don't build stuff very often.
This is what I'm trying all the time, to change the '--command=', the blue LED turns on at the helicopter, the antenna achievement synchronize with the helicopter, but I get ERROR.
An example of this you can see in the following pictures that i add.
What should I do or Which part of the code I need to change to make the helicopter fly?
Thank you very much for your help.
Sorry for the delayed response, but yes absolutely that would work. The only thing you are missing when you used a hacked mindflex is the Raw EEG wave. You still get the Attention and Meditation algorithms.
Hello all there! I'm still trying but I fail to fly my helicopter (Blade mCX2 RTF) directly with Helicopter_Control.py on Windows 8

Hey Steve,
Is there any problem if I use an USB Oscilloscope and Logic Analyzer instead of separate analogue model?
Pls reply soon. It's very urgent
That should work just fine. We use a Saleae Logic analyzer ourselves (which is also USB). The oscilloscope in the video is only being used to confirm that the control signal is digital instead of analog.
Great build, really cool
But with some EEG paste and more electrodes, we can make this go
Forward, Backward, LAnd, Right, Left
I think we have to amplify the signal and decode it with a formula and program it
I think im gonna do this :)
I am michael,a university student from China.Actually,i made a control for a aircraft (not a RC Helicopter like yours )by using a Mindwave after reading your artical.The software is written by myself,it is Labview and they are connencted by bluetooth.My question is since we just can get two datas:attention and meditation,how can we control our aircraft to a correct direction by Mindwave.For example,if i want the aircraft to go left,what should i do by dealing with the two datas?
This technology is really new for us..even there is no implementation and development have been made in our country..
I am a student and would like to do this for my final year project..
So here,
I have questions to ask you..
1) If i don't have logic analyzer, can still proceed the project?
2) Why using serial usb converter instead of parellel?
3) Is there any different if I use cheap helicopter in term of the microcontroller?
Still using the Serial-usb converter?
Hope to here the answer from you a.s.a.p or can reply to my email..
Thank you.
Before proceeding, you should be aware that you should assume every model helicopter will use a different microcontroller and/or transmitter chip and potentially an entirely different control mechanism, even when working with two models from the same manufacturer. Its even possible two helicopters which are listed as the same model will have different chips inside over time due to differences in production runs! There are no guarantees.
That said, our helicopter used a "Spektrum DSM2" transmitter chip, which was printed on the side of the box. So its fairly reasonable to assume anything else with that same brand and logo will have a similar configuration. But again, no promises.
To answer your questions more fully:
1) We used a logic analyzer to figure out what was going on with our circuit. The oscilloscope was a more important first step though as it helped us to learn about our circuit - specifically that there was a digital signal between the microcontroller and transmitter chip. If this wasn't the case we would not have had any use for a logic analyzer. If you are affiliated with a university they should have an oscilloscope and someone capable of educating you in its use.
2) Most digital devices speak to one another using some serial protocol. That's a good thing. Just as it is easier for you to read this message one word at a time (letter by letter in fact) than trying to read multiple lines all at once (ergo in parallel). Anyway you are probably thinking of the type of parallel port printers used to use but I think you'll find it is nearly impossible to locate a modern computer which still has one.
3) A "cheap" helicopter is likely to use less complex parts and likely different control mechanisms, such as IR. It would be easier to hack the joystick potentiometers for such a device.
Finally, one last word - if you do not have a solid foundation in electronics you're going to want to find and work directly in person with someone who does. Most of what I have learned personally was from working on projects such as this alongside much more experienced individuals. Trying to ask complex questions over an internet forum will quickly become an exercise in frustration - not the least of which for the person trying to answer them!

I am from India
i want to build this project. I have neurosky mind set..
So i want to ask few questions regarding other parts of that project ..
Q-1. can i use another company's RC helicopter. I didn't find the same company's helicopter or if that helicopter company supplying their product in india then where should i buy?
Q 2- can u tell me full specification of usb to serial cable that used by u and where can i buy is it available in india....?
Q3- i didn't understands that why u by passing all the circuit and components and connceting only the transmitter chip to usb to serial cable .....can u please expalin it ...
I would like to ask few things..
1) Can we just use USB to parallel?why and why not?
2) Why you choose to use USB to serial?any advantages of using this kind of board?
That's all ..
In this project we encountered a Spektrum DSM2 transmitter chip, which receives as its input a serial protocol from the remote's microcontroller. The chip does not, to my knowledge have a parallel interface.
In any case we modified an existing hardware device, so our equipment had to match.
Steve Castellotti
I have some doubts. So please me explain these...
Your project explanations are very nice...I can understand your explanations. But I can't able to understand your proto type board connections, because it is quite different from my text book explanations. So please explain me about "there are four wires one is +ve, -ve, Gnd, and data sending connections in data cable and remote control and also why you are using Blade mCX2 model helicopter to control the MLP4DSM type of remote control...why not the same model helicopter... and after finishing connections, you have shown another one 55 seconds video, why you are using here same 2laptops and what are all the software installed in it"...
Thank you for writing.
To quickly answer your questions:
- The MLP4DSM is the controller provided with the Blade mCX2, so that was the most obvious choice to use.
- The USB-to-Serial adapter cable we used provides 4 pins: Power, Ground/Negative (they are the same wire), Rx and Tx. We first needed to receive data (Rx) from the remote control's circuit board microprocessor to read the commands it would send to the transmitter chip. Later we needed to transmit that same data (Tx) to the transmitter chip. In our example we used Red for positive power, black for ground/negative, yellow for Rx and orange for Tx.
- Only one laptop is necessary. We used two during our development for our own convenience. The only software you need to control the helicopters is Puzzlebox Brainstorms. If you want to use mind-control from a NeuroSky headset (or similar) you will also need Puzzlebox Synapse. In the course of the modification we used special software for the software-based Logic Analyzer. All required materials are listed on the first page of the instructions and links to all manufacturers and relevant software is provided in the Glossary:
I hope this helps.
If you complete the project, please send us photos so we can add them to our website!
Thank you.
Steve Castellotti
Thank for your kind response, definitely I' ll finish this project and send you a photographs, and I can't able to sing up your official site, some more doubts also I have for neurosky headset I have o install drivers provided with headset and puzzle box synapse, and thoshiba blue tooth software also is it... nerosky head set connected with PC via blue tooth is it sir, and after wearing headset how to think a commands.
Thanking you,
In prototype board two terminals is connected to the RC one is black and another one is orange and that orange and yellow wire connections are connected random in connections...this is what I am getting confusion...
I think the word you mean to use is "question" not "doubt" (c:
Happy to help.
The official site for the software is http://brainstorms.puzzlebox.info
If you are running Windows XP, then the recommended Bluetooth stack to use with with the NeuroSky MindSet is from Toshiba. It should be included on the installation CD which comes with the MindSet. The default Microsoft Bluetooth stack should work but many users have experienced connections hanging and frequently timing out while using it.
Besides being able to establish the Bluetooth Serial connection, no other drivers or software should be necessary. Specifically, Puzzlebox Synapse is a replacement for NeuroSky's ThinkGear server, so you don't want to run both at the same time. Puzzlebox Brainstorms can talk to either NeuroSky ThinkGear or Puzzlebox Synapse as they both provide the same protocol.
The NeuroSky MindSet measures levels of attention and relaxation. Some suggestions for achieving and maintaining a high level of focus include performing mathematics in your head, reciting song lyrics, or naming each street from one part of a familiar city to another. To achieve high levels of relaxation it helps to close one's eyes and meditate. Everyone is a little different so perhaps you will find what works best for you by experimenting.
Finally to answer your question about the wires, the connections are not random. If you are using the exact transmitter chip described in this document with a USB serial cable, you don't need to worry about reading values from the microcontroller because we have already traced them out for you in the source code.
You will only need to connect the positive (red) and ground (black) cables from the USB serial adapter to the positive and ground pins of the transmitter chip. Then you will need to connect the "transmit" (Tx) wire from the USB serial adapter to the "receive" (Rx) pin of the transmitter chip -- because your computer will be transmitting commands to the chip, the chip will receive those commands, and re-transmit them through the radio signal.
A prototype board with several wires are shown in the video so that we could easily change between reading values from the microcontroller to writing values to the transmitter. If all you want to do is fly the helicopter form computer software you don't need to reproduce all of that work and you will only ever need three wires to connect the transmitter chip to the USB-to-Serial adapter.
I hope this helps.

Secretary of the Air Force Michael Donley has announced his plan to step down June 21 as the Air Force's top civilian after serving for nearly five years.
"It's been an honor and a privilege to serve with our Air Force's great Airmen," Donley said. "Their accomplishments have been nothing short of impressive and I'm humbled to be a part of this team. The Air Force has been a way of life for so much of my career, I know it will be bittersweet to say farewell."
Donley was confirmed as the 22nd secretary of the Air Force Oct. 2, 2008. He served as the acting secretary since June of that year, as well as for seven months in 1993, making him the longest serving secretary in the history of the Air Force. He also served as the service's top financial officer from 1989 to 1993.
"Mike has been an invaluable adviser during my first two months as Secretary of Defense and has been an outstanding leader of the Air Force for nearly five years," said Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel. "His leadership came during a challenging time for the Air Force, and he helped instill a culture of responsibility, initiative and professionalism to the service. Mike has been an unwavering champion for our Airmen, their families, and for American airpower. The Air Force he leaves behind is more resilient and more respected because of his leadership and personal dedication."
Though Donley has not yet announced any future plans, he remains dedicated during his remaining time to supporting the Secretary of Defense in the many challenges that lie ahead for the service.
"In the meantime, there remains much to do," Donley said. "This is an extraordinary and exciting time for our Air Force, filled with both challenges and opportunities. I remain confident that the strength and professionalism of our Airmen, and the commitment and determination of General Welsh, Chief Cody and our military and civilian leadership team, will continue to see us through."
Donley's 35 years of experience in the national security community also includes service in the Senate, White House and the Pentagon. Prior to assuming his current position, he served as the Director of Administration and Management in the Office of the Secretary of Defense.

A component sub is simply a speaker that's designed to reproduce bass once it's installed in a compatible enclosure. Think about the impact of a movie soundtrack in a big theater or even in your own home HDTV setup. A component sub can add the same kind of power to the music in your car. And a car sub is not all about the boom that you hear on a street corner (although that's cool too) - you can pair a component sub with your choice of enclosure to get bass just the way you like it, from tight and punchy to fat and loose. And once you experience music in your car with a well-tuned subwoofer, you'll never go back.

"Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value I bought this to replace the factory sub in my 2001 Tahoe. Had to cut the outer rubber trim on the speaker, but once that was done, it was a nice tight fit in the stock enclosure. I paired this with the Rockford Fosgate R150X2 amp and I couldn't be happier. The bass is awesome. Pros: This thing rocks! Cons: None. Was this review helpful? Yes No Not what I expected Written By Anton, Rocklin, CA on Sunday, December 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value It has tight bass, but not as loud as I had read from the other reviews. Iused it as a factory replacement in my eddie bauer, and it fit pretty close with some modifications to the stock box. overall the quality was average. Not what I have come to expect from the name jl audio. Pros: Tight bass, small back, and nice face on the speakers Cons: Not very loud Was this review helpful? Yes No Awesome!!!

Yes No Lil Speaker, Big Bass Written By Joe, Kingman AZ on Friday, September 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value I gotta say, I am very impressed with these subs. Superior sound from such a small pair of subs. This was my first pair of JL Audio speakers and I am very quickly becoming a fan. These subs are designed and best suited in an enclosure type set up, but I am using them mounted in the rear deck of my car. They sound amazing in this set up and I can only imagine how they would perform enclosed in a box. No regrets and very satisfied. Pros: Amazing sound quality from a small subwoofer. The smaller diameter size allows for more flexibility in mounting locations. I did not want a large speaker box in the trunk and these subs allowed me to do just that. The quality of the products that JL Audio puts out is absolutely superb. Cons: These subs are designed for encloser type installs. They mount from the top only. It took special tools to cut a bevel seating area on a piece of MDF to match the angle of the trim ring and be able to mount from the bottom. Was this review helpful?

"Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Used this little speaker a few months now, bumps really hard for a little 8 inch speaker.. Pros: Good speaker for the money Cons: None Was this review helpful? Yes No Awesome 8"s Written By Jim, Ann Arbor, MI on Monday, July 22, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value These little things are great. First pair of 8's i've ever owned and am pretty impressed (usually 10's,12's & 15's). They are grea mid-range subwoofers and do enough damage to shake my side mirrors. They are both in boxes to spec from JL. We custom made 2 boxes to go under my rear seat in my Avalanche and these things are great and allow me to still mount my amp hidden under the seat too. I listen to mostly electronic music these days (but still have an ear for everything) and they play some pretty low frequencies which these struggle (but may be the amp/break in period). Listening to a 311/Sublime mix I made for the boat, these things sounded AMAZING - very musical and rocked my truck. Pros: Great mid bass response - sound amazing and are very audible. Cons: Struggle on the low end thus far.. but to be expected from a smaller woofer. Was this review helpful? Yes No Nice Sub Written By Dave, Westminster, MD on Thursday, July 18, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Nice replacement for the factory sub in my 2001 Explorer. After 12 years the original sub finally blew out and had to be replaced. All the other reviews were spot on all the way down to the screw behind he enclosure. I now can finally crank up the tunes again. Installation wasn't too bad. It was a bit cumbersome removing the interior panel though. Once out of the way removing the sub enclosure was easy. That was the only way to get to the rear screw. It also made drilling new mounting holes a breeze. Pros: Nice sub, great sound. Cons: Wrestling with the interior panel. Was this review helpful? Yes No Perfect replacement sub Written By David H, Henrico VA on Sunday, December 30, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value I needed a sub to replace my stock sub in my 1998 Ford Explorer but not sure if could find one that would fit the original sub box but it worked great with just a small amount of altering to the screw locations.And sounds much better then the stock sub. Pros: Great fix in original sub box. Cons: Not really a con but you have to drill a few new holes in sub box to mount new sub but no big deal. Was this review helpful? Yes No FJ Cruiser Replacement Sub Written By Chris, Boynton Beach, FL on Sunday, October 21, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value This is a great sub to replace the oem FJ Cruiser sub. I recently upgraded the oem speakers to JL Audios and added the XD 5 channel amp. So I wanted something to match the rest of my install. The only mod required is trimming the trim ring behind the speaker griile due to the JLs thicker mounting ring. The silver JL logo matches the factory silver sub speaker grille. Cons: none 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Nice 8" Sub Written By Brent, Phoenix, AZ on Wednesday, June 27, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Replaced the factory sub in a 2004 Ford F150 with the JL along with a Punch 300-1 amp. The bass level in both spl and sound quality is amazing. I did need to add a 1/4" adapter ring in order to mount the sub in the existing box, not a big deal. I would recommend this set up to anyone looking to greatly improve bass performance. I haven't put too many hours on the sub yet so I cannot comment on durability but build quality seems quite nice. So far I am very happy with the purchase and would buy JL audio products again. Pros: Soound quality, build quality Cons: None so far 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Good vibes Written By S, Astoria, ny on Thursday, February 23, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value I went with what the other reviews said and it definitely is surprising for an 8". It is put together well and JL has good customer service. It definitely took more grinding than I had envisioned. I installed it in the stock woofer location of my '02 Yukon and it was over a 1/4" big in its OD. It can be done, but man was it messy. Also packing the box with poly was a good move. Pros: Looks sleek and blends in with my grey interior Cons: NOT a direct replacement for my factory 8" sub. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

"Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value The product is built of good quality. Sounds great than Lexus ES 300 OEM sub which i replaced. Had easy hook-up connections to power sub.I brought the product based on reviews from Lexus forums. The product is well worth the price. Its been just one week and the sub has already made lot of parts in my car rattle.Now spending some time to fix the lose parts caused by the sub's excellent performance. I really like the sub.Perfect replacement for 98 Lexus ES300 Nakamachi sub. Pros: Built quality. Ease of use.Sound quality. Cons: Nothing Was this review helpful? Yes No The "W" stands for WOW Written By MattD, Eau Claire, WI on Sunday, February 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value I recently purchased a 2010 Focus SES that was equipped with a factory 8" woofer. It sounded...ok, but it wasn't enough. I decided that I would replace the factory 8" woofer and started to research the enclosure to see what would fit. From my readings it looked like the JL 8W1v2 would be a very close fit. There were other options that would have bolted in, but I know JL's reputation for quality so I went ahead and ordered the JL. It did not fit the enclosure just right. Mounting depth was about 1/4in too deep. A little time with a heat gun and a little molding later and it fit perfectly. I tried it on the factory amp and it sounded a little better than the original subwoofer. I wasn't happy! So I bought a JL Audio JX250/1 amplifier and JL amp wiring kit. Holy moly I had NO IDEA that a little 8" sub could POUND like that!! This sub/amp combo far exceeded my expectations and I could not be happier with the final result in my car. Big thanks to Crutchfield and JL Audio! Pros: Big sound in a little package (make sure your enclosure matches the subs requirements!), Excellent value, Great looks! Cons: NONE! 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Awesome ! JL Written By Jeff, Deptford on Tuesday, December 13, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value I have a 1999 expedition and my bass speaker blew .I did tons of research on bass speakers . Some of the stuff was confusing but,I started reading reviews and they were so helpful.Thats why im writing mine :).It was a pain in the rear to get old one out and the new one went in np at all. When I installed it my very first song was from pinkfloyd . I listen to 104.5 and 93.3 so a mix of music.I think it is well worth the money and sounds awesome .The sound is definantly an upgrade from stock speaker.Very good speaker from JL .Its been in for 2 weeks and after a few days it sounded better ,so it does take a few days to break in I didnt know that.A VERY VERY NICE BASS SPEAKER FROM JL,AND TY FOR THE REVIEWS, THEY WERE VERY VERY HELPFUL Pros: Size was perfect,fast shipping,very easy install and sound. Cons: Price a little high but,when you get it installed and turn the stereo on SUPER !Well worth the money . 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No excellent 8" sub-Woofer Written By Chuch H., Lake Mary,FL on Monday, July 18, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Choosing a sub-woofer for my car was very challenging,a 2007 Pontiac Solstice convertible.I have very little space to replace the stock unit.This one was reccomended by a professional installer because it woud fit.Pared it with the JL Audio amp.AWSOME base.The base is very tight,much better than the stock unit and it will take alot of power,really amazing for a 8" sub and well worth the money. Was this review helpful? Yes No Alot of bass for such a small sub Written By afish01, Minneapolis on Monday, April 25, 2011 I got this sub because I wanted some low-end punch in my Civic but did not want to fill up the trunk with a huge box. The ideal sealed box size for this sub is very small (.375 cubic feet) so you can make a small box and tuck it away in the corner of your trunk, leaving plenty of room for other items. I built my own box for this out of 3/4" MDF using outside dimensions 12"x14"x6.75" and powered it off of the rear channels (bridged) from an Alpine 4-channel amp, which ends up being 150 watts. The whole setup sounds great! I am amazed by the great response of this sub and how low it can hit despite its small size. It won't be breaking any windows, but it's enough to make my mirror shake! Very tight, accurate, and linear response. Was this review helpful? Yes No JL Audio SUB Written By Nick, Carrollton, Texas on Wednesday, March 23, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great Clean Deep Sound!! Great Buy! Was this review helpful? Yes No AMAZING. Written By Braden, Washington on Thursday, February 03, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Just got this sub about a month ago. Its amazing. I have a '92 Pontiac Firebird and this thin kicks hard! Its very clear and punchy-just what i wanted in a sub woofer cause I like to hear my double bass nice and clear and distinct when I crank up the August Burns Red. A very solid sub. I love it and whenever a bass drop comes I feel it in my whole body. I like. 2 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Amazing Written By Hammer, U.S.A. on Monday, October 11, 2010 I put this sub in the rear slot in my '99 explorer. And it hits like a beast. I can shake every mirror and the roof. Its running off the stock amp which is so bad it has blown two subs before this one. It sounds bad every now and then but thts probaly the amps doing. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Powerful Little Sub Written By Anonymous, Orlando, FL on Wednesday, October 14, 2009 Just installed this sub in a custom box in my 2008 VW R32 and I must say it really thumps. I am using a 9 year old amp to push this sub with no issues. I have had a few JL Audio subs in the past and have never been disappointed with the sound and quailty of these woofers. This 8" sub provides the perfrect addition to my factory head unit. Its not overpowering bass but just enough to add that extra kick to the factory unit which so many factory systems lack. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Very impressed Written By Nick, Flemington, NJ on Saturday, September 20, 2008 Just got this yesterday. Spent the day building a box for it and wiring everything up. The box had to be custom cause i drive a 2000 Frontier C/C and theres practically no room behind the back seat, but i made it fit. The single sub sounds way better than i expected. Have it hooked up to a profile amp comin off my alpine 9884. couldnt be happier. hits hard and low, and blends perfect with the system. 6 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Wow!!! Written By Jose, San Antonio, TX on Tuesday, June 03, 2008 I bought a pair of these for my F-150 Super Crew in a Q-Logic box and powered by an Alpine MRP-M450 bridged down to 2 ohms. Wow, these things can POUND out the bass!!! No one believes me when I tell them that I have a pair of 8" subs. Super clean sound! A+++ 12 out of 12 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No What a surprise! Written By fantomz, Lambertville, NJ on Friday, January 25, 2008 I stumbled across this little sub while in the process of searching for a gift for my girlfriend. I have heard a lot of subs over the years and had been under the assumption that you have to have a larger sub to get great bass. After hearing this sub my views have changed. Not only is it an extremely accurate and uncolored sounding sub, but the amount of bass that it produces in such a small package is astonishing. At higher volumes the excursion is equally impressive, and there was no hint of distortion of any kind. This is my first JL audio purchase(as I had been an Infinity Kappa fan for years), but I can say without a doubt that this will not be my last. I am extremely pleased with the performance and versitile nature of this sub. My hats off to the folks at JL audio. 49 out of 54 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Surround Stress Relief: By creating a radius feature on the edge of the cone, stress is relieved from the surround material at maximum forward excursion, resulting in longer life and more consistent surround behavior Interlocking Cone & Dust Cap: The W1v2's utilize a dust cap that is not just glued, but also interlocks with features molded into the cone body for a tight snap-fit. This creates a more rigid cone assembly and a more reliable dust cap attachment. Dynamic Motor Analysis (DMA): DMA is JL Audio's proprietary method aimed at improving dynamic motor behavior. As a result of DMA optimization, W1v2 motors remain linear in motor force over a very long range of excursion, and also maintain a highly stable fixed magnetic field in the gap over a wide power range. The result is vastly reduced distortion, faithfully reproduced transients, and tight, clean, articulate bass. Floating Cone Attachment Method (FCAM): JL Audio's patented FCAM technology is an innovative method of bonding the surround/cone assembly to the voice coil/spider assembly. This assembly technique ensures proper surround geometry in the assembled speaker for better excursion control and dynamic voice coil alignment. Vented Reinforcement Collar: The Vented Reinforcement Collar (VRC) is a composite structure that addresses two issues related to reliability. Stress Relief: By reinforcing the critical junction between the cone, voice coil and spider, the VRC greatly reduces failures due to glue breakdown or material weakness. It does this by greatly increasing adhesive contact area and providing stress relief to the spider material at excursion extremes Air Flow: The VRC also features slots that facilitate air flow directly onto the voice coil windings. This reduces thermal compression effects and enhances reliability Insert Molded Suspension/Coil/Terminal Sub-Assembly: The W1v2 features a unique spider, coil and terminal subassembly which is assembled prior to installation in the speaker frame for optimum alignment and glue-joint integrity. This type of assembly ensures precise lead wire length, lead wire entry and exit angles; and coil to spider perpendicularity. Elevated Frame Cooling System: The elevated frame design of the W1v2 delivers cool air through slots directly above the top-plate to the voice coil of the speaker. This not only enhances power handling, but also sound quality by minimizing dynamic parameter shifts and power compression. Customizable Trim Ring: The woofer comes with a removable ring made of black ABS plastic which can be painted to match the installation theme and create a personalized look. You can purchase optional grille mesh inserts which are specifically designed to fit into the inner diameter of the trim ring. Enclosure Compatibility Recommended Sealed Box Volume: The sealed box size recommended by JL Audio is 0.375 cu/ft. A diagram is provided in the owner's manual for a sealed box with external dimensions of 10.5" W x 10.5" H x 7.75" D, assuming 3/4" thick material.

Dear members,
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff

Pretty much sums it up.
I'm starting to lose faith in the fandom.
I think Sasuke is able to revert back and forth since he is an Uchiha himself as well as was Itachi's little brother. You have to remember its really rare for Uchiha's to have brothers that share same powers Izuna/Madara and Itatchi/Sasuke.
Manga has shown Madara switching between Sharingan/MS/EMS/Riningan so going by the rarity of the whole Brothers concept i'd say its something only they can achieve/do

Okay now here I show Sasukes transplanted eyes.
Now I show you Sasuke's eyes reverting back to normal. (no sharingan)
http://www.narutobase.net/manga/Naruto/590/4 (middle pannel and Bottom left panel)
Alright if Sasukes eyes can revert back to normal, then why can't Nagato and Kakashi revert there transplanted eyes back to normal then?
Obvious plot-hole. -_-
Not a plothole, clearly you're not the one "thinking about it"
Both Kakashi & Nagato are not a part of the Uchiha clan. Sasuke is so he can control the Sharingan with his bloodline limit, however with Nagato who got his eyes from Madara (most likely) and Kakashi from Obito, they are not from the Uchiha clan so they cannot control the ability.
Need proof? When Madara was ressurected could he not control which state his eyes were in? I rest my case
yeah and obito never has deactied his sharingan once ever as far as we've seen nor has he gne blind from over use so your point about this being a huge plot hole compared to those is?

Ok. There you go. Madara with normal eyes obviously after gaining EMS.
Now scram people!

Madara also had the ems when he was fighting hashirama and he could revert his eyes back to normal.
Madara's Ems
well since madara uchiha was the first uchiha to unlock the sharingan, mangekyou sharingan, Eternal Mangekyou sharingan and unlocking the rinnegan too...He master the sharingan completely meaning he can put his sharingan on all the time without chakra drainage....
Both Kakashi and Nagato are examples of non-Uchiha receiving ocular power vai a transplant - Sasuke, is not.
Sasuke is a Uchiha... Every time we see Madara he is either fighting or getting ready to fight. There are scenes with him after gaining the EMS where he reverts them back to his normal eyes.

Buccaneer Baseball sweeps doubleheader from Xavier
Saturday, February 21, 2004JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Feb. 21, 2004) - The East Tennessee State baseball team earned their first two wins of the 2004 season as they swept a doubleheader from Xavier Saturday afternoon from Cardinal Park in Johnson City, Tenn. The Bucs (2-5) received great pitching performances in both games, as the Bucs won a 4-3 thriller in game one and came away with a 6-1 victory in game two. In game one, the Bucs and Musketeers (0-2) were scoreless until ETSU scored two runs in the bottom of the third. The Buccaneers loaded the bases with no outs on a single by senior center fielder Tim Turner (Marietta, Ga.), a walk by sophomore left fielder Matt Traylor (Knoxville, Tenn.) and a bunt single by sophomore right fielder Shane Byrne (Johnson City, Tenn.). Turner would score the first run of the game on a wild pitch, and Traylor would score on a one-out RBI groundout by sophomore first baseman Blake Church (Roswell, Ga.). ETSU added a run to their lead with a two-out rally in the bottom of the fourth. Sophomore third baseman Greg Roberts (Douglas, Ga.) hit a double to left field then scored on a subsequent single by Turner. ETSU sophomore starter Jeremy Hall (Gray, Tenn.) was cruising after receiving a three-run cushion until Xavier stormed back to tie the game in the sixth. Musketeer catcher Eric Armstrong was hit by a pitch to begin the inning and was pinch-run for by Jason Morelli. Morelli advanced to second on an error then scored on a two-out single by right fielder Steve Sakosits. The next batter, center fielder Jay Johnson, tied the score with one swing as he hit a two-run homer over the right field wall. But the Bucs would come back in dramatic fashion to score the winning run in the bottom of the sixth. Sophomore second baseman Josiah Glafenhein (Knoxville, Tenn.) singled to center with one out, and advanced to third on a single by junior catcher Caleb Moore (Knoxville, Tenn.). During the next at-bat, Moore started for second and when Xavier's catcher attempted to throw him out, Glafenhein dashed home from third. Moore then finished a busy first game by coming on to pitch and earning his first save of the season with a strong final inning of relief. Hall (1-2) earned his first collegiate victory after several tough-luck losses, pitching six innings and allowing three runs on three hits and striking out four. Sean Finnegan (0-1) was charged with the loss for the Musketeers after allowing four runs and seven hits in six innings pitched. Byrne and Turner led the Bucs with two hits in game one while Johnson paced Xavier with two hits and two RBIs. Xavier got on the board first in game two, as Johnson again went deep with a two-out solo home run over the right field wall. But the Bucs responded immediately, scoring five runs in the next three innings. ETSU loaded the bases with no outs in the top of the first on walks by Traylor and Byrne and a fielder's choice by senior shortstop Andy Howdeshell (Maryville, Tenn.). Church came to the plate and singled to center to drive in Byrne and Traylor. Howdeshell scored later in the inning when Glafenhein hit into a double play. Moore and Turner led off the second with back-to-back walks then moved to second and third on a sacrifice bunt by junior third baseman Justin Clear (Lafollette, Tenn.). Moore would then come home to make the score 4-0 as Byrne hit into a fielder's choice. Howdeshell led off the third with a double off of the center field wall. After a single by Church and a walk by freshman designated hitter Stephen Douglas (Kennesaw, Ga.), Howdeshell scored as Moore reached on a fielder's choice. The Bucs scored the final run of the game as Moore belted his second home run of the season over the right-center field wall to lead off the bottom of the fifth. Sophomore lefty Steven Calicutt (Spartanburg, S.C.) turned in his second-consecutive excellent start, allowing one run on three hits in six innings pitched. Calicutt (1-0) also struck out six Musketeer batters on the afternoon. Xavier starter Bill Konecny (0-1) was charged with the loss, pitching 2.2 innings and allowing five runs (three earned) on three hits and walking six. Church led the Bucs at the plate with a game-high three hits while Howdeshell and Moore each scored twice. Johnson had another strong game for the Musketeers, going 2-for-3 with the team's only RBI and run scored. "We were very fortunate to get two solid pitching performances from Jeremy Hall and Steven Calicutt this afternoon which enabled us to come away with two victories," said ETSU head coach Tony Skole following the games. "I am very pleased with our defense and the quality of our pitching. Steven and Jeremy battled, threw strikes, and kept us in the game." Athough the Bucs swept today's doubleheader, the team left 14 men on base between the two games. "We are not a very good offensive baseball team right now because we have left too many runners on base and we are not producing," said Skole. "If we continue like this, it will catch up with us." The Bucs and Musketeers return to the diamond tomorrow afternoon for another doubleheader from Cardinal Park in Johnson City, Tenn.

Connersville – Last night shortly before 11 p.m. Trooper Scott Mcpheeters was working crash reduction patrol on State Road 44 on the east side of Connersville. As he entered Connersville west bound, he observed a car coming east bound with a headlight out. He turned around and stopped the vehicle to let the driver know they had a headlight out.
After stopping the car and speaking to the driver and passenger, Mcpheeters became suspicious. Trooper Aaron Edwards was close by and stopped to assist. Further investigation revealed the subjects possessed a small amount of Heroin and Marijuana under 30 grams.
Arrested was the driver, Zackory C. Becraft, age 20 of Connersville, and his passenger, Gayge Armon Isaacs, age 19 also of Connersville. They were lodged in the Fayette County Jail on charges of Possession of a Controlled Substance, Class "D" Felony, and Possession of Marijuana, Class "A" Misdemeanor.

There seems to be no particular place to post grids, so I decided to start a thread. We can always post links here to older posts with grids attached.
Anyway, here's a grid I wrote for myself (my screen resolution is 1680 x 1050). It supplies a main full-height area, to the left or right, with choices for the remainder of the space - either one tall space, two shorter stacked spaces or three very short stacked spaces.
I use it when when I am working in one window but keeping an eye on one or more others.
I labeled the numbers to creae a "guided tour"; if you follow them in sequence you can see how the triggers relate to the grid shapes (from larger windows to smallest).

Indorama's $700-million petchem project in India to be located in Tamil Nadu
11:18 AM MST | November 28, 2012 | Deepti Ramesh
Indorama Ventures (Bangkok) tells CW that the previously announced petrochemical project in India that will consist of plants producing purified terephthalic acid, polyethylene terephthalate, and polyester staple fiber, will be located in the state of Tamil Nadu in southern India. Indorama announced its plans for the project in January 2012.

Abby Pawil wanted to open a pizzeria in Olde Towne Gaithersburg, but found her customers didn't have anywhere to park.
In stepped Economic Development Director Tom Lonergan, who got city officials to come to the table to work it out. Now, Pawil is hoping it will be hungry customers gathering the tables of her new restaurant in May.
"He's the one who brings everyone to the table," Pawil said of Lonergan, whom she said helped walk her through the city's planning and permitting process.
Her new restaurant, to be at 312-A E. Diamond Ave. in Gaithersburg, will now have 24 parking spaces instead of 12.
Lonergan, Gaithersburg's economic development director, has held his position for more than a year, bringing the city council, local businesses and developing communities together.
When he was selected for his position in October 2011, Lonergan moved from New Jersey to the Kentlands. He was tasked with developing a healthy business climate, strengthening existing businesses and promoting employment opportunities. The city has made significant progress.
According to Lonergan, the vacancy rate for retail and offices spaces has decreased since 2010. Data from Montgomery County show that the countywide vacancy rate for retail space was 4.4 percent in the first quarter of 2010, and 3.9 percent at the end of 2012.
Out of Gaithersburg's 309 retail spaces, 3.6 percent are now vacant, compared to 6 percent in the first quarter of 2010.
Some of Gaithersburg's economic tools, including its Economic Development Opportunity Fund, have helped retain businesses in the past year. Sodexo Inc., a food and facilities management company at One Washingtonian Center, considered moving its headquarters and more than 500 employees to another city, but ultimately decided to sign a 10-year lease for its Gaithersburg location. The city of Gaithersburg approved up to $500,000 in February to help Sodexo renew its lease.
Although the city has been "remarkably successful" in attracting quality tenants, he said some spaces have been difficult to fill.
In the Kentlands, 654 Center Point Way has been vacated and re-occupied multiple times. Restaurants The Last Mango, Tony and James, Zodiac Grill and 44 Sports Bar and Grill have come and gone.
Lonergan said a new tenant soon will occupy the space, but the name of the tenant has not yet been released, pending the final paperwork.
Keeping retail spaces occupied involves making important relationships, he said. The city's strategy has been direct outreach and keeping close contact with prospective tenants.
In Olde Towne, Lonergan is focusing on 315 E. Diamond Ave., a 1.2-acre site that he and Director of Planning and Code Administration John Schlichting want to transform into a public plaza with residential units and parking.
Lenny Levy, a co-chairman for Gaithersburg's Olde Towne Advisory Subcommittee, said the group's development ideas for Olde Towne are still being decided, but Lonergan has been supportive through its early stages.
"He's very in tune with what should be done and what needs to be done to make it a vital part of the city," Levy said.
Lonergan said Olde Towne's future residents will influence the types of businesses that eventually move in.
"There's an old adage that says, 'Retail follows rooftops,' and the rooftops are starting to get delivered here," Lonergan said.
He would like to see more unique businesses that serve the local community and become a draw for more distant residents. Restaurants with distinctive food, specialty markets and clothing stores could become those destinations.
"Not everything needs to be a national chain that you find on every corner," he said.
Prospective businesses are snapping up spaces at Gaithersburg's new Crown development, built on the former location of Crown Farm at Sam Eig Highway and Fields Road. According to Schlichting, the city has brought in more than $1 million in building permit fees from nine retail and mixed-use structures in the Crown development.
Krista D'Iaconi, development manager for the company handling Downtown Crown, the retail district in the community, said about 50 percent of Crown's retail space had been leased out as of January 2013. Residential developer Pulte Homes held an open house at Crown to show model homes to potential buyers on Feb. 23. The RSVP-required event filled up within hours.
When it comes to opening up shop in Gaithersburg, Lonergan said, the city's in-house planning, permitting and inspection capabilities, coupled with its economic opportunities programs, give it "the business-friendly advantage" over neighboring towns.
The Crown community is also preparing for a future transportation system, the Corridor Cities Transitway. The upcounty bus rapid transit system would have multiple stops between the Shady Grove Metro station and the COMSAT property in Clarksburg.
"Getting the CCT built is going to be a critical part of facilitating future development," he said.
Another major transportation project in Gaithersburg is the Watkins Mill Interchange, which would link two unfinished portions of Watkins Mill Road over Interstate 270, with exits built in. The planned interchange would relieve traffic at the intersection of Md. 355 and Montgomery Village Avenue.
Finding funding for the interchange has been slow, however. Lonergan said the state has set aside about $40 million for the $161 million project. Among other options, the city is considering a "tax increment finance district," in which local infrastructure development — in this case, the interchange — would create additional tax revenue to fund itself.
"I feel more confident than I ever have that we are getting closer to an agreement on some sort of funding package that will get this project done," Lonergan said.
The city continues to work with the county to finance the project. Lonergan said building the interchange is essential for future development in the area.
"Beyond the excitement of a new highway ramp...it's a facilitator of development unlike any other," he said.

So lets get into some of the details, This is a forum where I will be answering your questions and concerns.
· Start of the leagues in March after daylight savings time. (March, 11, 2012)
· A league will run from a minimum of 6 to a maximum 12 week (Spring, Summer, Fall )
· Leagues will pay the PDGA a $25 sanctioning fee for each season and a $1 per player, per week fee. (With a 50/50 split of $1 fees between League & PDGA)
· All players will need to provide a first and last name. They also need to provide a PDGA number if applicable.
The 50/50 split is important to make sure the leagues get money to invest back into their leagues for course improvements, or it can be used for payouts, local charities, your club fundraising, etc. it's up to you. Once the machine is rolling the PDGA will give back a percentage of it's take in providing rewards for leagues (free memberships to give away, PDGAShop.com coupons, disc golf swag etc.)
· Format will initially be limited to singles and scratch scoring.
· Each week all divisions will play the same exact course layout.
· Each nights of the league will be scored like a 1 round tournament.
. PDGA will not determine entry fees or payout structures.
· Payouts will not be reported to or tracked by PDGA.
Each town has their unique action and the size of purse everyone agrees to play with so we are NOT going to meddle with what you want to charge for your local play. It can be free for all we care, and with that said you can payout any way you want also. We can suggest a buy in format, but it's up to what you and your players want to do.
· Discounted PDGA Memberships will be available for players signing up for the PDGA through their leagues with promo codes; each league will have its own unique promo code.
Discounted PDGA Memberships for league members will be available soon.
The big question of course is what about beer? This rule has not been officially passed yet so this is why it's in red, but I am presenting the case that the PDGA alcohol rule for leagues be relaxed.
Alcohol rules will be based on local park or city/state laws for consumption of alcohol in the park
Can you imagine being in a Bowling, Billards, or Softball league without having a pop or two. Right now I'm guessing there will probably be a waiver situation that you sign, and the players will be responsible for their own behavior or actions.
Feel free to respond on here with your questions and concerns and I will be happy to attempt to answer your question. There are still a few details in the works but most of the fine details are worked out.
