Instructables is an ever-expanding documentation platform for sharing DIY projects of all kinds, from pancakes to electronics to making anything fly. Since 2005 when it became what it is now, Instructables grew from hundreds to more than a hundred thousand projects. It's a great community of fellow makers from around the world fueled by curiosity and the spirit of sharing. So we decided to publish the step by step instructions to our own kits in an accessible instructable-style format for your convenience.
