Radio Controlled Helicopter

I was out at lunch with my family after church, and saw this radio controlled helicopter for sale. Truth is, I've been searching for one at a good price. Huan Qi - 3 channel transmitter. 470mm rotor diameter, 500mm fuselage length, 9.6vt 800mAh motor. Will post more photos once I've learnt to fly it :-)

Below - some of my other toys and things I have made.

Here's some cool feedback I received from a new friend/customer Stefan: - Mean! Got my new suppressor today - everyone should have one! 'Don't get depressed- get suppressed!' Even if you don't need one - buy one anyway just so you can trade with Roger my new friend! Cheers Roger. Stefan!

Welcome!

I'm glad you've dropped (back) in for a look, and are sure you'll find heaps to keep you interested, entertained and coming back for more

(I have around 195 individual web-pages).

My name is Roger. I'm actually an ordained Baptist minister, so many people call me Rev.

Truth is, that I get bored fairly easily, and enjoy a challenge - that's why I originally created this website - to share my adventures with you.

After a while, I wanted more of a challenge, and began making Custom Suppressors and other firearms accessories -

I was a mechanical engineer for over 18 years before pastoring.

P.s. One thing I like best in life, is meeting and making new friends :-)

So - if you would like to be my friend - welcome. My first gift to you is the enjoyment & resources of my entire website.

Enjoy

Rev Rog.

Varmint Hunting Tip: Here's a tip about how to tell instantly if the small prey you just shot is dead.
I use this method all the time, and it works! It's actually as brilliant as it is simple!
All you do - if you are unsure if the animal is dead (many times it's clearly obvious!) - is take a piece of grass or small stick and touch the eye of the animal you just shot (Rabbits and Possums die with eyes open) - and if it is still alive - the pupil will contract and the eye will blink - if there is no response - the animal is dead.
Cheers, and hope this helps.

July 2008 - I have previously been using Ultimate Counter webstats - but they went offline for several weeks!

Because of this I switched to a much more power stats engine - analog 6.0.

However, I have just converted all my pages (around 200!!!) to Google Analytics!

It is soooo powerful - letting me know how long each person spends on my site, on individual pages, where they come from in the world - and HEAPS more!

So cool - now I know exactly who you are, what you read, what you like and where you are from.

I've kept this Ultimate counter stat going, but it is out by tens of thousands of hits.

(To be honest, I manipulated their html code, and I think their spider crawled my site - discovered this and hence stopped their services :-)

(Still with manipulated code!)
