So I'm starting to get my online orders in the mail. I already received my 470LM kit as my last crash is a total Rekit :( . I figured I should start building something. So I'll start with the small helis first then big ones later.

I will begin my 450 Sport build. I will try to use some parts that was salvaged from the last crash of my 450 Sport. I bought some Align servos and I'm using my old KST servo that is a survivor. I'll clean her up a bit more put some new grease etc. I might do the same for the Align Servos.

No need to rush builds or rebuilds. That's when you make mistakes :).

Am I that obvious?? lol Yeah it's winter time here, and I have a lot of helis to build. I'm Hoping I can make them in time for summer time. But you're right when I do rush I tend to make some mistakes along the way. I'll try and calm down a bit

My bad namaspilot. I should of said, we make mistakes. Shoot, I make mistakes when I don't even rush LMAO!. Winter time is the best to do rebuilds. We don't even have winter here in Florida... it seems. The time for me to rebuild is mostly after a crash and that's common :).

I've been doing clean install windows 1903 on all my systems today. Also done some clonezilla backups. On one of my systems I realised the usb hack that I installed has somehow malfunctioning. I'm going to replace it tomorrow. I hope they still sell them in ebay. Once I get all these things done I hope to get back on rebuilding these helis.

Managed to get a bit of time today. I thought I'd start with the servos. Give them a clean, and apply some new grease. I also checked the bottom of the servo PCB to see if it's insulated, sure enough it is. However I did noticed there is no threadlock on the screws for the servo, so I would be applying that for sure. :) I do hope I can get some helis built in time for summer during the non windy periods as it gets kinda windy down here. And I've crashed a few helis flying on windy days :(

Oh man work has told me I'm going back to my double shifts again. I'm going to have to put this hobby on pause again. :(

Happy flying guys, see you all next time.
