What did the postman bring today
Well he delivered my new set of hex drivers by Align, recommended by you guys. They do feel much better quality than my older ones..

Re: What did the postman bring today
Nice Tony, they are pretty good hex drivers. And you should get a couple of years out of them.

Re: What did the postman bring today
They feel good Dan and lock into bolts better than my old ones, plus the bits are replaceable... Mint

Re: What did the postman bring today
The hex ends are quite long so the can be ground out a couple of times as well, I get one of the engineers at work to grind mine.

Re: What did the postman bring today
Yeah mate you have not seen the end yet, you have a long way to go before you can call yourself an addict, when you spend £500 plus on a 130x then sell it for less than £200,
Don't fancy thinking how much I have spent in the last 2 years,

Re: What did the postman bring today
The 1.5mm driver is the true sign of a good set. If its made right and it is use right then you will not need to grind anything.

Re: What did the postman bring today
I've only been in RC since January this year and spent well over £500, my blade 450 was £350 with dx6i... Spent over £200 on nano and all the parts I've replaced after crashes.... Over £200 now on this HK450 I got off Treff.... So I haven't done too bad in 11 months, none of this includes all the tools I've bought...KevG wrote:Yeah mate you have not seen the end yet, you have a long way to go before you can call yourself an addict, when you spend £500 plus on a 130x then sell it for less than £200,

Re: What did the postman bring today
It would really suck to know what I've spent on crash repairs. I know its more then all I have spent on equipment and tools.
Glad I don't know...

Re: What did the postman bring today
I bit hard my first year in helis. Lot of money. Went from a 120SR to a ncpx, to a 550X, to a TRex 700, to a 300X, to a goblin 500, and goblin 700, and then ended with a mcpx. Two charging rigs. DX7S.
This year dabbled with quads this year (second year), but no where near the same amount of investment so far. Picked up a DX9. Otherwise just repairs and flying until recently when I picked up a used 300CFX. Need to start selling off some stuff. And want to pick up a Blade 180 when they come out, assuming they are as good as they look in the previews.
