I just got me a new toy, it's broken but I will repair it and use it for what it is designed for, fishing.
I was trawling through the NZ RC marketplace on Facebook and this came up at a price I just couldn't refuse.
Let's just say if I only salvaged the motors and ESCs I would end up way ahead, and that was my intention.
When it arrived I checked the damage and decided I could fix it.
I have found a second hand shell here in New Zealand that I am currently negotiating a price for.
I figure I will have this thing flying for well under $500 NZ ($330US), new is over $2000US.
It is apparently capable of carrying up to 1kg so hauling several baited hooks on the end of my game rod should be easy.
This should be fun.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
