I just went outside in the freezing cold to play with a remote control plane I got for my birthday and got it stuck on someones porch roof. Being 3 in the morning I didn't knock to ask if They can open the window and get it for me.
I've only had it for 5 mins
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

No, to the left, the electrician with the Connect. I was going to make a long pole from my brush and mop collection but don't want to get arrested

It had a soft landing on the snow. I tried evasive action as it was heading their way. pulled back too hard, induced a stall and didn't have the altitude above the porch to gain controlled flight.
My own fault really.

Does it have an FDR or is that your own estimation of its final moments

It has been good yeah. The plane crash has lowered the tone though.

Really I couldn't find it. Not it isn't out there. Obviously if you have the acronym, it's easy to find pages containing it.

Yeah shame about that, I need to be off tomorrow.
You can make some decisions on fusing the 12v side and the 240v routes for a ring if you're about for a bit. Probably wise to run two rings if we're at over a kw on the roof.
