Spare time activity

Re: Spare time activity

Is that FPV or Fixed? FPV flying is a great experience if you get good gear, if not it is just shite.

Re: Spare time activity

Haven't got my FPV gear yet as a Gimbal for the GoPro is the first priority.

I will get my 5.8GHz Fatshark FPV gear soon though and I will use the GoPro as my FPV Camera as well as Recording as the same time.

If anyone likes old country music, here is another one I did this weekend. If you don't like old country music, here it is anyway.

Where have the bookcases gone?

I needed a plain backdrop for a video project I was doing, so I just left it up.

I like to go flying model aircraft with my step son, well I did until this happened.

The first year I started flying RC aircraft the normal routine was as follows. Build ARF plane. Go to AMA site on Saturday and fly. Crash plane into the runway. Retrieve servos, receiver, and engine and put into small sack to take home. Repeat. A huge amount of fun that costs more than a little money

Spare time? Surely you jest! I spend all my waking hours in front to my PC. 18-19 hours a day. If I'm not fielding questions from my site then I'm getting new files and adding them to the site. I also spend a fair amount of time playing on Facebook.
I run 2 groups over there: https://www.facebook.com/groups/159846504220322/ For Baby Boomers, If you were born between the end of WWII and 1964 (more or less) then this is the group for you.

And my Jokes&Funny's group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/39973088018/ You're sure to find some of the jokes posted here over there too.

I tried my hand at RC Helicopter flying. That's fun. And with the cheaper battery models, it's not expensive to replace parts, and they're easier to acquire.

I would like to fly some liquid fuel powered ones though.

Good time to share that song, I'd say. Stupid polar vortex. Stay warm, everybody!

Re: Spare time activity

Recorded this last night.

We've never met in person, but we recorded this duet from 1500 miles apart.

Re: Spare time activity

A portion of my free time recently has been used up by this:

Keep in mind this didn't happen all at once, this is the tropics of Iowa after all.
(I still prefer this to the tropics of Illinois where I used to live, ice is way harder to shovel.)
