That gun is plenty big if it is stuck in a fellers nose

That is Dope.

It is a great farm truck. Very roomy. Can haul 5 adults and a couple deer. Only drawback is it does not have a LOW range or LOW gear so it won't crawl like my Suzuki.

I need to figure out where the air goes into the airbox and either snorkel it or add a prefilter sock. It has sucked in dust 2x and ruined two motors.

Mystery noise has been found. Kept hearing a metal on metal binding noise whenever suspension was flexed. Here is the culprit. Time for a new front drive shaft and either removing the front sway bar or installing more drop brackets.

Holy crap. It rubbed that much material off???

Nice.

Mine has a little worn spot on it similar to that, just not quite as deep. Never hear it rub, and the groove it has doesn't have fresh metal, so I "THINK" that it might have all happened when the truck was up on a lift for some rear 3rd fun we once had. How bad can it be before you have to replace it?

Mamma's Birthday/ Mothers Day gift. I gotta show somebody but gotta be careful where.

Blade 350 QX2. No camera but the GoPro Hero 3's have come down with the release of the 4, so maybe she can use her b-day monies to get her one.

And yes it is for her, but I'm hoping she'll let me play a little.

 

[wngrog]

Gotta get a camera. Not much use for one without it sorry to say.

What's the story with that brand?

 

[jynx]

Yeah, camera is on deck. As far as the brand, Blade is big in the helicopter arena and I was looking for a decent mid-level quad for her. She bought a little cheapo that was impossible to control and she crashed almost immediately. Did some research and this one wasn't terribly expensive, but mostly it has a "safe mode" which looked like it would be perfect to let her learn on. Also has some other features that interested me. Like a "return to home" function and a feature that will let the operator let go of the sticks and it will self level and hover.

As she gets more confident with it she can swap modes and try more advanced movements.

Biggest thing for me was the price point. It seemed to have a good list of features at a good price. If she gets into it pretty big we can upgrade her down the road.
