What Did You Do Today???

This sounds a lot like after Tony noticed that I put my tail blades on my 450 backwards.. :ambivalence:
It was that way for awhile too...
After I reversed the blades and the belt, I forgot to reverse the rudder servo and gyro compensation direction.. Major pucker factor guys!.. No damage though...…..

I got my new replacement RX for my li'll zinger (Blade 130S)… After I reassemble it, I too have a loose motor connection so a tape'n I go... I think I'll go over the 450 too while I'm at it...

Oh hey, we might get a little rain and possibly a bolt or two from above tonight. I hope so; I want to see some action around here.. You know; while I'm working on my salutes.... :eek1:

Well actually I was glad I located the error as simply being a stupid on my part because as soon as I realized what I had done it reinstated all my confidence in the machine itself.

Oh yeah, I know exactly what you mean... If it's something I did, I want to know about it...

Ok, I finished wrapping my titanium salutes tonight. Why can't I get help from brother Tom; LOL!!!! Oh right; let me do the dangerous work. Wow; what a guy, my brother...…….. Next up they need the cross matching, lift charges and leader fusing... I almost forgot; I think I'll put a red and blue assent comets on these little yet high yield babee's.

Hey a little action is forming south and south west of Oahu. Let's go already, I'm ready already!!! HA!!

I have been banging my head against this wall for hours and I'm in the same place I was when I got up. About the throw the towel in.

We finally got some decent bolt action last night.
We got a 4.2 inch per hour rain rate all night. Also someone was hit with lightning loading baggage onto a plane at the airport. Next up, a bolt glanced off a transformer on a pole and indirectly hit a kid riding in the back of a Samoan limo. (back of truck in the middle of the thunderstorm!) I prefer to be on the inside of the Faraday shield... Well that's a cocoanut head for you...

A little more clarification. I'm starting a completely new Twitch page just for Rc. Long story, don't ask. But only 16 followers, not much of a loss there. I can more than likely make up more than that in a day....

With the "DrRc" channel name... I thought it was primarily for RC and the other stuff you streamed was so it wasn't idle during the times you didn't have related content.

The more I think about it, the more I don't think Rc belongs on twitch. It's a gaming site, and lets face it, I don't game that much, or well when I do game. So it is quite honestly a waste of my time to try and grow that channel.

I'm not sure I'd agree ( with the RC doesn't belong part ).... Storm Chasers are another group that also uses Twitch and they are also a seasonal group as is RC... and that is just one other group of many beyond gamers. Having a large group that game, doesn't make Twitch an exclusive for that group.
