|
||||
Substantial Revision. It turns out that even a moderate wind was enough to pull the flag off the pole with the initial design. This revision is considerably more robust to wind, though it still failed in a heavy thunderstorm.
|

|
||||
### 2023-08-15 Version 4.0
|
||||
|
||||
Revised again (Rev v3 was unsuccessful). This time tested through an entire season's worth of storms.
