i have been waiting 3 weeks for some 4500Mah nano-tech batteries to arrive from china, according to the tracking number, they have gone to Canada 
i found a guy here in town who was selling 3 2200Mah nano-techs so i bought them for using on my axn and when i get courageous enough the align 450 v2, maybe join 2 together for getting the skywalker up. the weather has been really good the last few days and 1 battery just wasnt enough. especially hard when the only charger i have is 0.75A output and 15v input so it wont even work off the car im looking at buying a iMax B6AC very soon. i am just waiting on an answer from the supplier regarding authenticity of the charger, there are so many fakes around by the looks of it.
i have used the fpv on the axn gear a couple of times but i have to admit i am really liking TPV flying now i am getting better at it. its also way more social when you have a friend come to watch. i also think the axn is a bit heavy with all the gear on, even tho its weighs very little, im having trouble feeling as comfortable as when i first started flying?
i think the gopro is awesome. i made a cable so i can use it as my fpv camera and at the same time it can record at 720p 60fps as well as take decent photo's. i am not using the protective case because it is too heavy, which adds a little to the nervousness at times but so far so good.
the wind is forecasted to pick up this afternoon and for the next couple of days so im out for a play now while i can.
have fun everyone

Hey guys can you believe I got my parts from China today, its only been 2 weeks!
The Tarrot mainbearing set is nice the bearings are a nice snug fit on the shaft, so that should eliminate my worries about the bearing slop
I got a pair of ball link pliers, that should make matters better, and a new set of skids for when I knock mine off, I know it will happen!
