As for controller mounts for the iPad, let me know if you're not able to find a good solution; I'd be happy to 3D print you one. If there isn't one on Thingiverse that's sufficiently sturdy, I have...

I can confirm, and have done this several times already.Some context that comes to mind - this is actually how “on the fly” functions work. For the orbit function, for instance, it prompts you firs...

Is there an opportunity here for a community-supported wiki? I agree that the videos, while fairly comprehensive, are somewhat difficult to digest. Many of them are now somewhat out of date and lac...
