Rest well brother, get some well earned sleep.

So sad, R.I.P Maxi.....

How much more can 2022 suck..😟

I’ve never seen them all play together, plenty of times separately but not as Faithless,  now I never will😔 

Nothing i can think of but traxxas patent stuff and barring exports to uk. Amain and rc mart so far i know of wont ship traxxas products over. Unless its reversed which it should be. 

Tamiya emailed shops barring them from putting tamiya kits on special offer. Saying it diminishes the brand. Funniest thing ive heard from an rc brand. After traxxas. 

So that's why Traxxas  just emailed me saying they have copyrighted 'hectic,' so now I owe them money! 

This was our sky the other day looked strange to me. Not typical uk clouds lol. Makes me think of an Aussie talking about how different our clouds are lol. Now i seen it. Mayb. 

 That's nice, I would have had to park up,put Little Fluffy Clouds on and just sit back.

Its my back door lol, ive never paid attention to the sky but since moving here i often look up and think thats weird. Sometimes its all orange/red looks like its on fire. 

Ive no idea why the sky here is so strange at times. 

But those clouds looked like they was just sweating lol. I wonder if im in a valley or something something affects the skies here. Jcb hq area. 

Had a Amazon voucher that had to be used by midnight, should be fun seeing what I can find in the rivers and around the piers. 

Sounds like hes going to have the same sort of fun when i tried fitting a new magnetic sump plug to my car. Dont get me wrong, ive had magnetic sump plugs in the past, fitted to alloy sumps. My current car has a steel sump and non magnetic plug as standard. When i decided to swap it for a super duper magnetic one i didnt think about the fact that it was going into a steel sump. More difficult than youd ever think to make sure it wasnt going in cross threaded.

magnet fishing?

Deans are just crap mate ive only tried cheap ones mayb they melt easier still. But genuine deans are usually said to be hard to solder on. I melted 10 pairs or so then found xt60 plugs. Tin them dunk the wire in like a bullet and fill her up. 10x easier i swear. 

I have some solder guys on here recomend i haven't tried it yet but hoping it makes soldering easier. The stick type irons i couldn't use at all no heat. Now have a 50w maplins cheap ish and always improving now. 

But ill stay away from deans myself. We all get abit of tech rage now and then lol.

Helps if you connect 2 together to share the heat load.

I found it better myself if I lightly file the gold to expose copper.

Do what I do matey get a mate who great at soldering who loves cakes and a cup of tea lol

+1 on that!!

I've a long list of exterior painting jobs backing up !!

Can guarantee it will be a hazy sky up there when we get set up! Got flasks and pizzas at the ready. 

I thought it looked a bit different this evening when I walked to the shop, although that was only around 6, so it wasn't too noticable, and a bit hazy as well.

Probably this 'Australian flu'

Why do they call it MAN flu surely it should be called WIMPY KID flu hahahaha   GWS fella 

Kill it with fire !!!!

J

Tatts not tarts! Haha, although either would be OK!

Auto correct can sometimes be pleasing, on a rare occasion!!. 

My lil tugboat

I taught him to ramp hard fast and high with the finesse of a optimistic kamikaze, all this subtle handling business seems wrong, he also has about £500 worth of drift shells in my eBay basket! 

I'd say let him enjoy whatever he likes and being in the basket doesn't mean you have to buy them

But yeah, you can easily spend £200+ on a lexan shell for a drifter lol.

I know somebody who did a home dna test a few years ago. It came back with percentages of the geographical area their ancestry came from. For example 20% North Africa and 80% Northern Europe. It wasn't more specific, ie Sheffield and Marrakesh.

Many, many, moons ago, I am talking just over 30 years, I was mad enough to surf @ Newquay in Nov and Dec !!. Must have been totally mad !!. Still great fun !!. 

I don't plan on getting wet when I go in, only my feet! We have a Christmas morning paddle planned, quick 20mins followed by a drink in the pub in front of the log fire. 

I love being out on it, late summer evenings we would go out and watch the Sun set while having a brew and a roll-up, the pair of resident seals swimming around us and dolphins playing nearby, amazing.

I forgot you lived near newton Abbott

I agree, s.coast is a wonderful place

Princetown prison is very impressive when the mist and fog clears, many days in my younger years spent on Dartmoor. 

Around here Princetown is referred to as 'The 13th century'!  Think we shall try Haytor or Houndtor first. 

see...u can do it............from now on u`ll get better at it......well hopefully.....

Soldering station and proper lead solder.  

Also different tips for the iron for diffferent jobs. I have two irons that pli

ug into the station. One with a fine tip for delicate work and one with a wider tip for general soldering.

The bullets soldered fine but the solder just would not flow into the wire to tin them. Still not sure if it has but I shall test run it today, cheeky day off work, so got morning free. 

V1 was rubbish. V2 kit version much improved although still,not the best. 

So I gathered from what little could find, oh well.

As John said although his wording is a little kinder.... 

HobbyWing 150 is about 60quid atm on RCmart, free postage, bargain really!

Is the motor dead? If not, that kv would run sweet on 4s 

Going for a 6 pole tenshock so might just stick it all on the card and pay it off first payday after Xmas.

Never been a Tenshock fan myself, I'd vote Turnigy lol, but that's just me.

Best of luck with getting it all running bud 

sweet.....I gota 802v2L 2200kv in my super mt4g3.....and a 802v2 1850kv in my hyper.......both go like

1950 I think, this doesn't need the madness the Savvy does!

Just pop in a Hobbywing 150 amp in it and forget castle and turnigy etc

I'd agree with above, HW all the way.

yep  hobbywing

......I ``accidently `` won my race spec sv1000 engine off e bay a few years ago................

I put in a cheeky offer, went shop, come back in and it was accepted, oh ****!  Green yeti xl kit spec with batts, spares,  flysky etc. Great success. I can be at Haytor from my place in 15 mins, rude not to really.

• sweet.....

Great news. 

I never ever get rebates. 

Never had one in my life either John.

Ohh to be lucky lol.

Spintires Mudrunner,  ps4 game, off roading with knackered old trucks, diff locks, winches, etc 

Ahh i see 

I'm an old man now, speed is too tiring, 3mph and plenty of axle-tramp and I'm happy!

He has always been a sensible lad, launch the crap out of everything up obscenely large ramps etc so I don't know where all this drifting nonsense is coming from, I think he may have swapped at the hospital? Who can I sue? 

Thinking of one of the hpi offerings, unless someone says they are a load of pony. 

MST are normally good for pro level but maybe not for carpark or street use, Sakura D3 or D4 good as well, or HPI Pro D if you can find it, also Tamiya TT02 D spec is not bad with few tweaks.

BTCC is proper racing, f1 is just a circus now, they had the 'let's get ready to rumble' boxing chap to announce the drivers, tragic. 

Too True, Formula E is the future of top end motorsport, and far more interesting to watch in my opinion. I am sure there are others that are better, but I don't watch them so can't really comment.

To contrast, I also love the Goodwood Revivial, but that is only once a year. Again great racing and of such beautiful machines!

Problem is you have the works teams and customer teams. Customer teams get limited equipment compared to the works teams to keep them out of reach. Hate the tyre management, hate the fuel management, track limits rules are a joke. Give up.

Sell the pony to a kabab shop?

Not enough meat, all fur and attitude!

Lol
