So, I just woke up from a very very long nap. I've got a wicked cold and I haven't been up doing much of anything. I was feeling pretty good yesterday but today is quite the opposite. I sure do hope tomorrow is better.

I have to hide this from my wife because if I don't, and she reads that, she will cut me off lmao.

Derek, guess it's a good thing you didn't get the heli this weekend afterall lmao.

yeah, I guess it wouldn't have mattered if I had gotten it. I've spent most of the past 30 hours in bed. Ugh. Just recently started feeling a bit better so I got my 500 out and took the tail completely apart and started messing with it. After putting it back together, it does slide more smoothly but not perfect. Anyway...it was good for me to wrench on something again. Hopefully tomorrow is better for me.

Nope. They charge a bunch. I think there may be some price savings if you do two years at a shot, but not that much.

This is one of the reasons I'm eager to see another RC flight organization startup and grow. AMA needs some competition so they don't get too full of themselves, feel like they can get away with charging an arm or leg, and then take it upon themselves to speak for the whole of US RC fliers in dealings with the FAA and end up backing us into a couple uncomfortable corners in the process.

I will find out if the mail is running today in about 10 to 20 minutes. I really want my package to show up today but I know it will be here tomorrow. This is killing me, i really want to start the build.

Well I have not went to the mailbox but I can tell ya it will not fit in the biggest box so its a no show today. It baffles me that some people got packs from the post office today, i guess I would care if I did not have this new kit coming.

As for the kit I got the Gaui X3 with some spare parts for when the first crash happens. I also added a Phoenix Edge 50 amp esc and Phoenix 10 amp bec pro. I also had scorpion battery straps added with Scorpion's 1.5mm and 2.0 mm hex drivers along with RealFlight 7.

Two things that I could not get do to inventory was 2 extra battery trays and 1 rear tail case. I would have called to order so I could back order but I got anxious and placed the order after business hours.


Forgot to add some 3.5mm bullet connectors and a 10 pair pac of ec3 connectors.

One trick on keyboard issues on laptops (if talking built in keyboards) take the battery out of the laptop. Mine died on me slowly over a week. Went out and bought a new one. Then pull!ed the battery on the old one for some reason, put it back in, fired it up and it worked again.
