Static judging: Bill Kenny's Dauntless.

Of course after I drew this I ended up watching 'The Picture Book' on BBC4.

 

The yellow marks are courtesy of my daughter, who decided to join in the drawing using highlighter.

Just playing with the focus and such on my new camera. Oh, do I love this thing. The camera, that is. Not the remote. I have no opinion of the remote.

I'm not sure how the blurred background with locked focus on the remote came to pass.

OK, story time. So a year (or maybe two) ago, I got some quite nice speakers, which have been dutifully producing sounds on behalf of my computer ever since. However, they were being driven by a 20 year old "AM/FM stereo receiver", which had some issues. For example, you couldn't adjust the bass while the speakers were active because it would make huge clicking noises (luckily I knew this and avoided subjecting my speakers to it). So, last week, I happened to be in Sydney visiting friends, and a Hi-Fi shop near their place had some gear on sale. Hence, I purchased a Cambridge Audio amp, which seems to sound better than my old one (no great surprise). This photo uses the amp's styrofoam packaging on the right as a reflector, with my SB-600 to the left. The "backdrop" is a protective bag the amp was in (inside its styrofoam padding), much nicer than the usual plastic used for this purpose.

setup

A tiny Helicopter I bought from Ebay for $40, used for 3 days and then fried -_- Turns out there was nothing to stop it from charging the battery so much it melted! Live and learn.

 

It had a nasty tendency to go up till it hit the ceiling then fall all the way down. Didn't phase it tho.

1st Stage Of Prepping The Body For Paint

Static judging: Bill Kenny's Dauntless.

My old build of the Team Losi - GTX. The paint job is similar to the RC10, mostly because I had paint left over.

Looking up at the upper flying area from the road up from the lower flying area.

Life is becoming so lazy; we are so used to these gadgets which make us comfortable with laziness.

 

"Select" life and not comforts, where you have only one to live in.

If only i could get the focus just right on the remote. Now for scale, check out the fuzzy slippers in the background. They're about four feet away.

Warmup flying before the event.

少了遙控器,進出汽車變得很奇怪

想念起以前沒有中控鎖的時代

...to turn you on quick?*

 

No joke - If my life depended on it, I couldn't work any of these properly. I don't even know which device goes to which unit. Must be a guy thing - it's just not in my genes.
