My FPV Foamy Adventure - HK Tristania EPP

Slow FPV #3. FPV flying in safer way.

Been doing lots of thinking lately about the risk of flying a huge 1.2m over wing span over crowded places below especially when i'm on FPV (First Person View) flight mode which i know its not a good idea for adventure flight for long term.  The weight itself is a major concern since it can be alike brick falling from the sky above if it happens.  So i've made some research, studies and found a solution which can lead to safer and fun way to do some FPV adventure without huge risk of public damage property if my plane crashed or anything happen in the future.  
The solution:  Its a flexy 3D EPP foam 800mm winged sub 290gram super light weight profile plane (HK TRISTANIA EPP 3D @ TECHONE SPIRIT) equipped with lightweight nano FPV hardware that reduce any public damage if crash and safe enough to fly around public places and its very slow.  Check out my photos.  Its flexy, soft, soo lightweight, thin, slow, economical, easy maintenance, looks friendly, funny and have enough performance to fly anywhere, unlimited heights and required less space to land or you can grab it in the air.  Crash test shown it doesn't even cause serious damage to public property, animal or any living thing including people around it.    I've did lots of maiden flight with this EPP profile plane, it fun, entertaining 3D plane both to the pilot and the public and capable to fly low and slips though narrow places and places where normal planes though to be impossible and easily grab my hands on it while in the air.  Since i'm an adventurous mountain biker i took advantage to fly FPV with this and manage to discover new forest trails, terrains and discover cool places before i decided to jump on my mountain bike.  This is forever my favorite FPV plane.  Awesome and i'm glad to make this hobby a safer and adventurous activity.  More video coming soon on this EPP FPV flight.

Recovery plan - saving critical work

Things going bad for my old computer starting last December. Unstable motherboard, frequent hardisk crash and overheated graphic card. Worse thing doesnt goes well when hardisk failed to but which suspected having bad sector on boot table. So quickly i have to make few backup copies of my work into new storage and everthing have to go into safe procedure before my computer messed up. XAVAGE model design was highly affected by these issue but thankfully my project are safe tuck away from cippled computer system. Few copies of backup available on remote server all over the net to make sure no disaster happen if my computer went bad to worse.

Saturday party dinner

Well actually its prayer and thank giving dinner, I'm not enjoying much because i have stuff to do upstairs just join for slice of the time. Fried noodles, curry beef, fried sweet sour fish, prawns, yellow rice, another beefy thingy, cakes, jelly and other stuff that i missed. Its a thanks giving prayer over my family over god protection to my family who previously saved from last month accident which causes us to lose one of our vehicle during our journey to attend grandma funeral. Yeah i'm still waiting for my new ride probably next week or later. Uhhh...i'm tired of waiting for my new black Sedan.

Terrible car crash!! but my family..

I was shocked when i was inform by my cousins upon my arrival to my grandma hometown that$ my family who travelled by land including my father two sister and a little brother involve in terrible self accident when they on their way to the funeral event at my grandma home village which happened during heavy during raining hours approx 120km away from the destination. I was inform late by a day when i reach hometown in Limbang just after arrival on plane me with my sister. The vehicle my father van an 8 seater plunge side of the road skid and overturned twice crushing the roof and shattered some side panels and glasses. Tyre blown off and some wheels came off. From the picture attached it looks terrified but luckily everyone on seatbelt doesn't suffer much just suffer minor bruises....my eldest sister however got heavy bumps on her left face and legs which makes her looks like a panda because arrogantly refuse to use seatbelt and at the end banged the side wall of the cabin. I was happy nothing serious had happened except costly wreckage left me wonder if i should load another new vehicle for my father next month.

Currently the vehicle is now towed to my relative who stay in a peaceful village country side where the vehicle will wait to be fixed by locals and probably sell to locals.

I'm very glad my family is safe and that's all matters the most. I thank god for not taking life of my family early as we have long journey of life to venture along. So it not our time yet. I hope our late grandma will watch over us and our lord shall watch over us too.

How to enjoy safe meal outside home?

Nowadays i don't trust any food cooked from restaurant, cafe or what so ever unseen behind the kitchen. Recently i went to the hospital where my sister work and i notice there's more and more people hit by cancer, breast cancer, ulser, cronic stomach and intenstine diseases and worse got this picture of your guts came out from anus....eewww.. I can't stand how such people at the hospital could handle such gross stuff. Looking at the background of the patient mostly they actively having meal outside. Not only that sometimes even the packed food or premade from factory have such illegal stuff to make the food taste good. There a businessman mentioned to me when it comes to thumb rules making profit in food business. "Money matters, make tasty food let customer be happy.. at the end of the day no ones really cares what happens at the end because it not my problem..money man, money". That words echoed in my ear for long time everytime i wanted to have meal outside.

How make sure your meal is safe to consume? TIPS:

- When you buy a meal make sure they cook infront of you so you can see live what they add on your food like at the burger stall where you can see clearly.

- Buy drinks from a sealed can like cola, 7-up, 100 plus or anything that is sealed, never buy something prepareed on the glass.

-Don't buy over burned food which left blacked burn marks or known as carbon, consume more cucumber if you do to neutralised the effect.

-BEWARE OF PINK OIL!!!!! that's the number one culpritt putting you at cancer risk. Pink oil happens when they use too much cooking oil until it turns pink. When it turns pink it is known as mineral oil which i usually used for my bike hydraulic disc brake. I work in the restaurant before and most restaurant are likely to keep using pink oil to save money. They don't care much about customer health.

-Hotel food are notoriously have high chemical content. Believe me or not during my young days they wash pot and cooking utensil using VHS HEAD CLEANER! Why i don't know but one of the waitress says it make the food taste good!..urrgghhh.. After that for 15 years i never ate at hotel. You pay expensive food just to die? not worth it.

-When you want to pack "tapau" the food use you own stainless steel container or ceramic pot to keep the food. Polysterine, plastic bag and newpaper "WILL" deposite chemical after exposed to warm food. The heat from the food accelerate the chemical extraction from the container.

-Beware i saw some cook always sneeze!

-Beware of the "plastic" melting and the "underwear voodoo". I'm sure you heard the story locally.

-Acid bicarbonate or chemical that make the food lasts, the ingredient very popular on fast food that was built too keep it for more than 3 days, especially on rice and fish. You know the exotic food.

-Last week i bought a deep fried banana just for experiment as recomended by one of my chemist friend. Leave it out side and see if there any fly, ant or any insect infesting the food. Two days later i don't see any insect feasting on it !!!!! Dangerous food!

-Sponges!! here's something we neglected when it comes to eating outside. When they wash dishes to keep using same sponges on every plate. The technique on using sponges really matters a lot between life and death. Sponges when you squeeze, then place on the dirty plate and release it will absorb all the bacteria and chemical which trapped it permanently inside the sponges. Then when it squeeze again it will transfer to another dishes, the remaining bacteria or chamical will be breed and permanent reservoir for next cleaning. Next time if you feel olike you plate is very oily or looks stainly suspicious then stop eating that meal. Don't believe me? Place a dust of sugar on the plate. Get the sponges at your kitchen, slice it, squeeze out the juiced from the sponges on the sugar and leave it for 2 days....yeah you get fungus like stuff or if you're lucky something like tiny ring worm will be born.

I have too much story to tell because my last jobs was related to food industries which pays suks digit. So wanna life a healtly life just go do your own cooking.
