[Swansea Hackspace] Drone Nights on Tuesdays

[Peter Barnes]

David,

I'll bring my lipo bag along on Tuesday.

I agree with your idea for a communal lipo bag, as that will encourage safe
charging and following of the rules.

That's a great idea for gates, bonus points if we can run el-wire or led's
through them!
