Darin, I am hetero to the core, but oooh, that is some sexy talk there, me lad.

 

Ja, your comment is right on, and I agree, thanks for the observation.  Modern digital control systems require a lotta lotta computer speed and feedback instrument bandwidth.  We have made great progress on it all.

 

There is something else I think is important in why Musk is making this business fly better than anyone: he recognizes that the subcontractors need to be right there in the neighborhood.  It makes the whole process more efficient.
