Yes, this is really me. No, I don't want any of you sitting on my lap, thank you anyway. However, we can share what RC type stuff we'd like to find under the tree this year.

Or, that you'd like to get with Chanukah gelt.

Or, that would be nice to get for whatever holiday you observe, or, just because, if you don't observe any.

Ho ho ho. I wouldn't mind trying one of the Master Series SBKs, if Mrs. Claus should happen to slip one into the sleigh for me on Christmas Eve.

I would like a quick roll out of the Covid anti virus, to all the vunerable people out there !
Its been a miserable, unhappy and sometimes heartbreaking year for some people. So lets hope the anti virus does its job and everyone can have a better 2021.

I was going to say that too. Right now I have enough RC stuff and I will probably only need more in another 6 months or so. It would be cool if we could get a vaccine before that. I heard that the UK gave a vaccine the thumbs up and it will be out in a few weeks, is that really true?

I use the 4s 5 amps in my Wot Trainer, biggest batterys I could fit in sensibly. They brought my model weight up to exactly 2kg, yet I still needed to add a little nose weight.
Although I can't complain as I can get a comfortable 12 min flight, as long as I am sensible and not going flat out.

Looks like everybody wants batteries at the moment, my mate said there is a shortage of lipo's at the moment don't know how true that is ? But I waited a while for the 4S batteries I wanted to come back in stock.

I was thinking of buying a spot welder and making up my own Li ion battery packs using 18650's works out a lot cheaper than Lipo's (y)
