JohnJ Posted April 14, 2019 Posted April 14, 2019 Not sure how you found that remote copter video but that &uc&$r is wicked good with controlling it @WillyBob ! Looks like a big hummingbird having a fit! That or a bumblebee, those are the only things I've seen move similarly to that. 3 Quote
WillyBob Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 Hi @JohnJ search 3-D helicopter flying I used to be active... Simple, little, easy to fly... Got out for a couple reasons... 1] very expensive hobby. Even if you don't crash, they are maintenance intensive. Stuff wears out fast. 2] I got a "Sorry, wrong number" call from Raytheon. Truth 2 Quote
WillyBob Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 We were [basically] beta and in a lot of cases alpha testers. We would buy these silly little helicopters that would barely fly... let alone be controllable...so we could rebuild them and make them air worthy. 2 Quote
WillyBob Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 .... so when I hear about modding things... I can relate. Especially to the "tinker factor" many of us are given to. it's getting a hold of me... Notice a couple posts back, "I'm trying to get my head around horn principles".. Willy thinking about building something. Sorry, I can't remember his handle... but the sewer tile sub has some potential. 1 Quote

I spent the weekend installing ac in my garage while my wife primed and painted so I actually DID watch paint dry and it was honestly more interesting than golf. 3 2 Quote

Well at least in person you're outdoors, probably with other people socailizing and you had to travel and make preparations. But seriously if you are down to watching golf on TV you need to get a hobby...hint..... Listening to awesome Klipsch speakers comes to mind 2 Quote

WillyBob Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Glad someone asks good questions. I'm in charge of dumb/stupid... Hope they are OK. Quote
