Couldn't you design it so that nothing can be transmitted to the bolts once the plane has been powered up?
If there were an intermediary device that would actually receive/transmit the signal to the bolts, then it could be turned off during the flight.
Maybe a lock code that could only be initiated when the plane is on the ground...
My brother, who was seven years older than I, started out with a Vic-20. So, by default, I started with this as well. We then moved on to a Commadore 64 with a tape drive.
The first computer that I actually 'used' was a Tandy 1000 with I believe an 8088 processor. The best part was the special Tandy 1000 graphics, somewhere between CGA and EGA, right?
I would give anything to play Jumpman Junior again!
