Popular Post oodboo Posted May 24, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2022 Dried it out over night and it flies! That's after hitting a tree and nearly losing it to the river. Then my dog snatched it out the air and dumped it in the river. Fortunately it's not a very deep river. Drone death.mp4 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked the £80 one up from Amazon, you get the ESC (I'll sell that), toque tuned motor and CVA shocks. Should be here in a week or so. For now I'll just stick a 1060 ESC in it and leave it pretty standard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Shergar Posted May 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2022 Went for a stroll, quite a tricky day out as just wet enough still to clog the tyres wherever you went - wheelspin and hop on any challenging incline! Still everywhere looks lush and green 👍 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hell horn. Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Got the herja ready for a day out as the wife's at the office on a Wednesday. Get car ready. Then 2 minutes before I'm heading out get 2 guys from the gas company telling me there is a problem with the gas riser. And they have to replace it. Cut to a few hours manic cleaning the kitchen so they can pull it apart to replace said item. What bloody fun lol. Car went back on its shelf for the week. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
