Danny stepped into the Big Room (FamTech)(R)(TM), looking for his daughter, or at least her Varga half. "Taylor? I'm going home for the evening, and since I was..." Danny's voice trailed off as his sight was assaulted by the appearance of what could only be called a CONTRAPTION. And it could only be spelled in all capital letters - nothing else would do it justice. It had weather balloons, and helicopter blades, and flapping wings, and propellers, and a bicycle horn the size of a tuba, and all of that was attaching to something like a penny-farthing bicycle, with training wheels, and outrigger training wheels, and somehow, he could have sworn that the handlebars were actually a Jacob's Ladder. "What is ... THAT?"

His daughter waved to him from beside one of the rear training wheels, which was almost as tall as her. "Oh, hi Dad!" The CONTRAPTION'S scale locked in, and Danny's mind boggled again - could you spell something with reverb? "This is a copy of something one of my friends uses to get around - his wings are just too small to give him lift, so his masters made him this so he could fly as a proper dragon should. I'm trying to work out some improvements for him." She paused. "Hold on, Varga's back from the first test flight." Taylor reached over, and using those weird-if-useful space tricks, pushed the button that opened the roof. Danny looked up, shrugging off the new hatch in the roof as the minor thing it was in the scale of things, to see Varga-as-Kaiju landing a CONTRAPTION MK. II, complete with blinking landing lights descending from the night sky.

We definitely need to up the sizes of the flywheels, and rework the switch over between the cranking one and the supply one. One second is much too long when flying. We also need to rework the output limiters, especially on the vertical accelerators. Max was actually laughing by the time I finally stopped yoyo-ing in front of his office, and I wasn't able to see his first look long enough to enjoy it. Horizontal flight stability is fine, though. The ground mode needs a little more work as well. It's GREAT on the straight-of-ways, but as for turning, well, it's REALLY GREAT on the straight-of-ways. Again, it's almost certainly the problem with the output limiters. Hi Danny!"
