Re: What did the postman bring today
Fortunately for me, if there is a repair that I need done (plane or heli), I just have to let my Mrs know and she tells me "OK!".Tony wrote:Haha, I think there wouldn't be a forum if all our mrs's knew what we spent.

Again, fortunately for me, I've not had any crashes with the 600. I had one minor incident last year with my 500 that cost me a set of landing gear. I had two crashes with my 450, one cost me two servos and some linkages, the second crash cost me blades, DFC arms, and linkages. Most of my crashing is with my foamie planes...mostly cheap as chips to repair.
If I were to have frequent crashes with my 600, the Mrs might have an argument, but mostly she lets me do as I please.

Re: What did the postman bring today
The postman brought me a big box of mini quad stuff, for Tony's 250 quad build i'm doing for him.
Same as mine, but now I can build it better with my knowledge from the first build
I also got the new gear set for one of my Savox servos, but they didn't send the right gears???
They sent a whole new servo !!!!!! How cool is that.
I paid $11 for new gears, and got a $30 servo instead. Bonus!!!!!
