Yay! new spare set of NRX-18

Thanks to Mr. Foo our local hobby shop i manage to grab this extra spare set of NRX-18 at on;y 1/4 of its original price after booked for a week. Recently i've trashed my current NRX-18 with broken and worn out parts due to extreme speed after made several upgrades to the performance parts ioncluding switching to 7.2v 1700mah YEAH RACING LIPO battery with 25C to 40 current discharge burst rate and 6800KV CASTLE CREATION CM2068 brushless motor. Almost 40% of the parts worn out or damaged badly due to intense speed and stress force. Hopefull i can rip out this new parts from newly bought NRX-18 set and place it on my current active model.

Goodbye toothy.

Ok, there's goes another tooth down the bin today, Last night the old pain from my back tooth have been triggered causing senssation pain throughout my working days, and nights spoiling my mood every seconds. Wasn't pleasant at all and was unexpected to lasts for more than 24 hours continously which i assume it just pain for just few minutes. It really disrupt my happy hour so i decided to get it remove permanently not through John Rambo style teeth pulling but by visiting the dentist and choosing option B to pull it for good. After 30 minutes procedure that tooth was history and the detist immediately dispose it into the dustbin without putting it as my souvernir..Ahh..to bad i didn't have chance too see my own tooth in my pocket. Good news for me i finally can and much some food like normal man..hahahahaha...

Anotgher Miri MCNET R/c gathering

Its been few nights weve been gather around with our local city member forumer for our daily dosage of radio control activity at local open space r/c playground. From drag racing, circuit to drift. Everyone was enjoying them self. Lots of techinical work, discussion, chat, tech tuning and parts swapping among ourself. Can be a bit costly but it worth spending since its a very healthy activity and a way to get more friend through socialized activity, In just 1 month through R/C activity i've made more than dozen of friend of similar interest and hobby. We're almost family at instant. Yup we're always happy racing our cars together regardless size and speed.

Sunday home Crisp Chicken Nuggets

Sometimes you have to be smart when buying nuggets from fast food restaurant like KFC or McDonald. They costs more than $4 per-pack with only 6pcs of meat in it...if you're unlucky you might stumble thumb size meat. But if we buy raw nuggets from supermarket in packs of 32 pcs inside we get $6....cheaper than buying and much safer if we cook our own. All we have to do is just work effort and cook it in hot oil and waaalaaaa.....we have our own home cooked nuggets and saved some money from fast food restaurant. Hmmm....12 pcs for myself for breakfast...hahahaha.

Farewell mini-z

After keeping it for more than a year finally i gave up and decided to sell all my 1/24 scale Hobby Grade r/c car KYOSHO MINI-Z at ultra cheap price to one of our local mini r/c enthusiast. I think i did a right choice since i need some cash to keep up with bigger scale r/c models. Small stuff really high maintenance and need extra care and attention. However i have no regrets since it has taught me lots of basic knowledge about advance R/C technical know how and great deal or hand work and maintenance skill. Its worth keeping for a year then release it to those who knows how to take care of it. Well now i'm concentrating 1/18 and Aircraft r/c hobby to push my self to the next level.

Yes, got me hobby grade 6ch Heli

I'm very happy last week after received a good bargain on R/C stuff. What'a more if someone offer a 2nd hand heli for 1/3 of its original price. So i received an overseas parcel, got me an "E-SKY BELT CP" helicopter complete with 6 channel system, brushless motor and esc combo set, inverted 3d flying feature, LIPO battery packs, 2x charger and balancer plus other high end professional hobby level feature. Thanks to the internet i've found a man trash which is a treasure for me. Like once said "A man trash is another man treasure"

Hello! Rock Shox Revelation.

After serving for 3 year finally i sold my old 130mm MANITOU MINUTE due to inefficient performance and trade with latest new front shox for my mountain bike with all new damping and suspension adjustment technology. The "ROCK SHOX REVELATION", 130mm travel, U-TURN suspension tuning. bigger stachion legs, lightweight and smooth rebound compression really make my ride a more smoother and less bumpy ride. I've tried riding it around the places down the stairs, up the hills, high speed downhills, some jumps and rough bashing, The forks works superbly well and handle like pros. All i have to do and sit down and no need to worry about standing up when encounter big butts. It really save my butt. Also made me a mood for some ride.

Goodbye old buddy!

Today i bid farewell to my old friend who serve me during my college days. Yup my first car now sold to someone this afternoon and the buyer was happy with the car condition since it has a powerful engine even at 660cc. The car model: KANCIL GX 660 or very know as re-badge version of original DAIHATSU MIRA have been running since my college days where i used to move around in KUCHING city. Because i already have a black sedan car and also another spare the house garage become very crampy and this red oldies should go.
Months before this car was used to carry my mountain bike to outskirt city for outdoor activity every sunday very known as my sunday car. Well lots great of memories me with this car since i always relates me to my young and youthfull days. Yeah yeah i got funny moment when i work with first company in kuching where this car often as car pool to carry friends around. Sometimes the car move around with side load sunk down like clown car around the city due to overweight factory worker. Sometimes used for drag race and sometimes as an experimental social car. Well today is the day. Farewell buddy. I hope your new owner will groom you with cool body kits and take care you very well.

World Most Dangerous Battery

I manage to grab some r/c parts upgrade sure to rise some hair rising speed and performance to the max. Got me two most crucial and missing link in my NRX-18 1:18 touring r/c car.
-YEAH RACING Lithium Polymer 1700mah 7.2 with discharge rate 25C to 40C burst battery
-CASTLE LINK CM2068 6800KV brushless motor.
First day of testing already causes major damages to the tyre, drive shaft, differential gear and body shell. So what? Mission accomplished! 89KMH! fuuu yeahh!!!! Its a competition performance car. I'm so damn happy about it.
My concern now is about the Lithium Polymer battery. Need to be take care with extreme caution. They are dangerous than nitro fuel, explosive if overcharge and discharge and very fragile. That thing is equivalent to hand grenade. lol. I hope it doesn't put my pocket burner r/c car in flames.

Youtube: 1/10 vs 1/18 race.

Another wonderfull evening to waste my time before heading home from work. Not much people around only me and my radio control companion Eru on the track enjoying racing among ourself. Sorry for the lousy youtube quality. Looks like the video conversion looks a bit crappy after transfer to youtube.
Anyways here'a a video clip of Eru and me runing around the car park circuit. I put my video cam on ERU 1/10 car and infront is me (the green yellow car). ERU on EZRUN brushless system while i'm on CASTLE CREATION: SIDEWINDER MICRO brusless system. Both on very power saving mode which is a bit slower setting but good enough to race since we need to save up the battery. Here's the recorded on board cam video.

God bless our happy evening.

Thank goodnesss no rain happened in that particular area, it does rain heavily a few kilometers away from the office but not at our racing circuit, maybe god bless us with luck and protect us from unlucky disaster...well it is raining seasons. Its just partially wet and we almost drift all the way. Not many people turn up for the race only me and Aki since the rain just drizzle around some unluck area. Another happy evening. Got me 3 packs of battery to last me almost 2 hours of play. It was nice evening with bring orange sunset. Really enjoy the scene and felt relaxed after being stuck in the office for hours.
