yes repairable ... but probably won't run again until next year.

A winter project to help pass the time. Do your lakes freeze over Chuck?

Ahhhhhhhhhhh nooooooooooooo!!!
I hate to see this sort of thing happen to anyone. Even worse when it is someone you know. I feel sorry for you Chuck but sorry does not help much I know.
Looks quite repairable but still not a nice thing to happen.
I just came home from a very enjoyable run with my Drambuie to see this. Kind of takes the shine off my morning.

Doc W if you read this that Swordie 300 works great. Tried it on 9s in the Drambuie this morning and it came back as cool as Douggie in a pair of shades. The anti spark gizmo I made works fine too.

Came into the dock a bit too fast today. Both motors and the CF plate holding the servo/RX came loose as well causing one of the flex cables to twist into a knot.

Goodyear blimp, fatman blimp? Well Doc you see it is not my fault. My mother used to beat me, McDonald's made me fat or was it that my sister called me names? These are all excuses that people use these days to explain away their hugeness. I am just going to go with I am a pig and love food but I am working on it. The working on it part is one of the reasons why I have less model time as exercise takes time. Losing weight again and getting fitter by the week.

My daughter is twice the woman I'll ever be .. as a teen her exercise regime took her on walks along the beach.. to the icecream place down the end, where she reckons she deserved a treat... was busted one day.. walked in our door with an icecream afterglo on her smile !
At 24 she is addicted to diets.. has a new one every day, sometimes 2..... says they just dont seem to work ...

Didya hear of the Alaska bloke whose car broke down ? He called the mechanic.. told to wait about an hr.. so went got a cold treat and walked back just when the mechanics van arrived. Bloke has a quick check, looks at the fellow..says 'looks like you've blown a seal' To which the fella said, nah.. just had an icecream'

nite folks..I feel myself turning into a legume ...

Place for really weird people is right. We have a guard that works for us that makes his own toy swords and costumes and dresses in them and takes pictures and puts them on Facebook. Sometimes I think Psych Tests should be mandatory for security guards but after careful consideration it leaves me wondering if I would have a job

The shipping service has bot changed. FedEx handles the shipments from here to AU. Customs imports them and hands them off to your postal service. The delays are coming at the customs point.

Ahhh.
FedEx.. after Tom Hank's "Castaway" their global motto changed to <Absolutely, Positively, Eventually. The service you deserve>

Sorta sums it up I think.

Dr that's all I use is the envelopes. Unless it's expensive and goes express mail. the last time you got a express mail / box was a couple of years ago.

Oh, okay.. I see ... this year's deliveries highlight the delays experienced with that packaging...

Now that looks like something I could do but at the moment I am not all that aerodynamic.

You could be a 1/4 scale model the Goodyear blimp .... !

Man Vs machine .. that's a bloke trailing the Spitfire.. bloody Jetman at it again !

note to Steve ..
the expanda-envelope-bags you send to Au arrive ~14 days.. the boxes arrive 30+ to my door.. different handling systems... mark me down as a 'bag man' !

I try to optimize bag contents per purchase .. but sometimes that loyalty is outweighed by courier fees.

hahahahaha
