Winch Solenoid Safety Buzzer
LEDs alone don't do a very good job of warning you of a
stuck solenoid because nobody ever watches them.
What you really need is a buzzer that sounds off whenever
one solenoid is closed and the other is open.
Even people who don't know what the buzzer is for will say
something to you when they hear it.
Build a
Winch Solenoid Safety Buzzer!

When you're circling in the wind it looks like this from the
ground:
The plane appears to speed up when heading downwind and slow
down when heading upwind.
But this is what's really happening:
The plane is circling at a constant airspeed within the
body of air around it.
(This isn't me.)
