Full surveilance going portable

Check this out what i won through ebay bids, got me 2 units of MINI DV MD80 (clone), a micro video cam recorder which i always wanted to have so small enough  i could stick on my helmet, on my bike or on my R/C models to records on going events happens around me on video print.  Its also another good investment and insurance to protect me on dangerous road when going cycling.  Who know someday if get knock by irrenponsible driver i could actually got the evidence recorded in my Mini DV.   Glad it came in very handy.  As for my review, this clone MD80 comes with 720x480 resolution running at 29-30fps, runtime of 2 hours (i guess) consume almost 2GB for 30 minutes recording, support max up to 16GB recording.  It need to use micro SD card to store the video which doesn't come in the box, so i bought separately a 4GB SANDISK type 4 for smoother recording but i should get type 6 with 16GB max.  USB connectable/rechargeable, voice activated, thumbs size,CMOS cam, include lots of brackets holder, optional rubber protection and cheap price was a good value camera just the right job.

Got me ALIGN Trex 100

It was a nice summer like day  as i head towards my friends bike shop, park and walk my way to R/C Hobby shop for minor parts mods to welcome my upcoming r/c monster truck.  In there i was about to made a purchase when suddenly in the corner of my eyes caught my attention on something looks familar from Youtube. It was that instant moment i knew i must have one,  Its ALIGN TREX 100s micro heli, hobby grade! Stuff is for pro and not something to be called kids toys..its serious stuff for adults. With my mind instantly erased i've paid $500 and sped on my bike towards home like little kids with birthday present. Unpacked, lots of touching and hugging and then straight for outdoor after the battery was fully charged.   Was an awesome heli being outdoor, this little critter wants to be outdoor even it was recommended indoors and did well going against moderate winds (if you're good pilot).  Durable, less parts assembly, cheap parts, its a bash, crash and fly heli that doesn't burn my pocket and gets me going even in my work place.  I could have gone with Blade MSR but my local hobby shop and nearest online shop supply bulks of Trex 100 parts so i couldn't complaint much.  After weeks of flying i think it was money well spent and good skillset earned.  I have gain some tech knowledge consider useful for real world application plus a good karma for my soul after seeing something flying freely up into the blue sky and white puffy clouds.  Its was beautiful experience!

A-bike!

Saw this cool gadget few months ago at local bike shop but just recently after few convincing fact on youtube about A-BIKE i'm very dire to get one of these and put excitement between my feet. A-BIKE: portable, mniature, foldable, light and versatile bike for my daily commuting outside home. 5kg and fits inside back pack. This is my ultimate solution to my lazy walking days and ideal if i'm going all out for holidays on tour. To bad it was late to grab the last one on store. Wish i knew much earlier through internet. At least don't have to worry about leaving your bike outside unguarded since you can always bring out into the bus, train and into mall. Cool!
