What did you buy today?

[Outcaster]

We have the 60 in our living room that replaced a 58 which lost a battle with a hockey puck. GOAL! Oh, sorry dad. I agree though, Samsungs look the best to my untrained eyes. Not to mention their killer smart tv capabilities. I didn't even consider another brand.

Hockey puck through the TV, ouch, I wouldn't handle that situation too well! I've got the hockey net and shooting area well away from the TV area in the basement so the boys are shooting in the other direction. No issues so far after 7 years or so.

I actually wasn't mad at all. It was a legit accident while doing something I encourage. And more importantly, wife proof upgrade opportunity!

Make sure you add a 2S lipo to unleash the full potential of the BLX system.
And when you can handle this eventually, a 3S will make it ridiculously powerful!

 

[WoodiE]

Bought RPM 81442 and RPM 81472. Anyone want to guess what they are for?

 

[Outcaster]

Wow, you got them already? Nice!

I ordered the bumper from LHS a couple of weeks ago, still waiting, hopefully this week.....

Ordered a sheet of polycarbonate and I am making my own vacuum table to try to make my own bodies. I have a roughed out body mold but might start something different. Maybe something that hugs the Nero exoskeleton?

I bought my 9 year old daughter a redcat kt12 for her birthday. I'm gonna paint the wheels pink for her. Can I give it to her used? I want to play with it lol.

 

[lonee]

Maybe you can make a deal... Pre used, but incl. lifetime service! ;-)

My vote is Daughter gets first throttle crack.
We need more ladies in this absurd and ridiculous hobby!

 

[Madbrown75]

Of course she'll get it first. I'm just going to take it out of the box, paint the wheels pink for her, charge the batteries, and box or back up for her.

She has her toy rc car, but that thing sucks. I thought I'd get her a not too expensive, better grade rc. The truck actually came today and has the upgraded drive parts (dogbones and wheel hubs). I'm glad I didn't pay $18.99 for the upgrade kit.

Bought a power supply and a 1800Mah nimh battery pack. I have no safe place to store lipos, so Nimh at the moment for me.

I use this for storage and charging:

https://www.amazon.com/HOBBYTIGER-R...rd_wg=ZsuzQ&psc=1&refRID=MQ2FAREPYHQK2D6QRN5Y

I purchased a 2 pack though since my charger has dual charging capabilities.

 

[lonee]

I have no NiMh except eneloops for the transmitters and other devices in the house.
All of my battery for RC-Models are LiPo, LiIon or LiFepo4.
I do charging my battery´s in a large metal cooking pot which is standing on tiles and the top cover is very heavy (I thing over 2Kg).
The Nero packs I do charge serial as an 6S or 4S pack. Also my battery´s for my bigger planes.
My biggest problem... I do need one more cooking pot because of the amount of chargers and battery´s.... ;-)

 

[wraith0078]

Winter's about over. Time to think about going outside again, so I bought a new plane. She's a bit bigger than I expected. 2m wingspan sounds a lot smaller than it looks in person...

 

[Madbrown75]

What do you guys think? Her birthday is next Sunday. I hope she likes it.

Nice job!
The Barbie Pink really makes it "Her" RC!

 

[lonee]

Right, nice job. And if the body will break, the next body will also be painted pink I think!
