Offshoot RC Models/Drone Hobby Thread

Cheers for that link mate… another encouragement to spend more money :thinking::rofl:

Better than woketoria.

Your not wrong, I better ease up myself. :laughing: Oh well sheep and rabbit pies for next few weeks :thinking: wait a minute that sounds awesome :laughing:

Might have to do the same thing mate!
Got my bills paid, budgeted out for the rest of the fortnight, then some cursed automatic payment rolled up and halved my bank account :rage:

Luckily I’m housesitting for a couple of mates in town this next two weeks and they stocked their beer fridges for me, so my “medication” is sorted for the next fortnight at least! :smiley:

Oh yeah, also forgot to mention that I couldn’t help myself and accidentally got one of the “last” of my wanted list that I had from the original failed purchases. :roll_eyes:

I said “no more” two Vehicles ago, so I’m not doing very well at all, much the same as the Gelbaster rabbit hole, can’t seem to help myself! :rofl:

To be fair, same as the Gelbaster Hobby, I wanted to build a collection of these models from the earliest original through to the latest, and this particular one is the first original of the C series, so even though I have 4 of the rest of the C series lineup to the latest release… this one was desperately missing in the collection :confused:

Now I’ve got it on the way, I’m much happier now, especially since this was the last one available at a very good price.:ok_hand:

So that’s it, “no more” until @Maiphut talks me into getting something else that I don’t need! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Need to figure out how to add a wireless video feed and drive it like a drone.

Good stuff, you want to try budgeting until November when my next income is due. All good though that’s just the way it is :person_shrugging:

For sure mate, been there many a time myself!

Always had to do extra curricular work on other farms or odd jobs around the place to supplement the income until payday eventually rolled around :+1:

Lots of people already doing things with tiny cameras and live video feed :+1:

Don’t you start trying to spend my money on extra ideas either sunshine! :angry::rofl:

Extra curricular :thinking:

I call it Sub Contract :rofl:

I was about to annoy you a bit mate had to buy a new bus his Ford blew up :joy:. Got a new Isuzu MU-X and was asking me about the auto transmission as he’ll be towing a Caravan a fair bit. I said keep it serviced and look at getting an extra trans cooler for it will help.

I recommended this one Isuzu D-Max, MU-X and Mazda BT-50 3.0L (2020-2024) Extreme Trans Oil C – PWR Advanced Cooling Technology Australia

You might have more better ideas on that sort of thing.

Hit me up with a message and can discuss further on there :+1:

Proud owner of a brand new LandCruiser !
Got the Tradesman/Young Fella BCF Catalogue Weekend Warrior version :joy:


Just gotta put it all together and give it a bash out in the yard, then start looking through the parts boxes to see what I can start mucking around with, but this particular one isn’t going to get barely any mods other than some better wheels and tyres :+1:

Now to add a turret and make it go pew pew.

That a very cool looking unit, Doc :+1:

“No More !!”…
Is just another way of saying…

" Wait, whats this new release…?? Y’know , the thing i now simply NEED, that i didnt know existed until 2 minutes ago…"

I dont know what thats like…
:rofl: :rofl:

Awesome, let the games begin :rofl:

My new Landcruiser got delivered today too, must have been in the same shipment.

Just got a couple more ehem aftermarket parts coming next week then I’ll do a trip to the big smoke and round it all up.

Then see if I can break this forum with a few pics :+1: Just happy I got a brand new Landcruiser for $60 to round the sheep up with. :rofl:

They’ve been released for over a year :thinking:

Get back in your paint thread :rofl:

It has begun :astonished:

Was just in the middle of starting to put the LandCruiser together when the white van pulled up in the front yard again!

Nek minute…

The next white van is coming to take me away at this rate :joy::joy::joy:
