...and while you're sitting comfortably on the sofa and thinking all joy with RC is only during the daytime, the preparations here for the night flight are proceeding...

Actually ... I wanted to make a film, at least in any case from the second night flight. But i forgot it, and now waiting for the supplies. Speaking of, does anyone need two absolutely new RC without Phantoms?

False alarm. All returned. Reward goodness! Praise the dela!

But now its time for something completely different:

Leg care.

Our Copter are fu**ed hard. This is also on their legs. And for those dela gives only the best:




And soon: LiPo battery care and depilatory with lube: YOU DO THAT? (dela24 content, now 20 years Probeabbo!)

I take pictures in your mind ...

But here is again some trouble: Cheng has discovered a well incredibly scary, huge and unknown object in the tower of the west wing. I myself can not go there anymore.

I send one of my new I-Sobots. Here is a photo of his equipment phase, today, 22:39 Zulu time:



...stay tuned...

Do not be surprised if its here hopping in the near future, i have at this time 7 - in words: seven - projects going.

Anyway:

I need drivers!

Therefore i could recruit new prospects in some clubs for my steam-project. Here they are still relaxing:



But the patches are almost done:



Off course they need vehicles. One of them I show you here in Genesis, and if that sounds familiar: right, here its going surgically:



more soon...

Sex sells!

Initiating the entry on Wall Street of my AG iG at the end of the year, my 50-member agitprop department has been working for days in the red zone.

First result:

My cars need more eye-catching. Based on the Girls on the bombers in the last century EVA04 was committed. Here are the first shots from the set. Do you want more?

Varzi, my brave engineer, is working again. He told me something about "way out of the desaster" or something like this, i dont reme´mber exactly. The heltered workshop looks alike:

Wolves in Germany? Pfff, nothing against tiger attacks in da house. Here is a rare snapshot immediately above.
Varzi was so proud that the central unit of the machine was finally finished. Now the reconstruction begins, meanwhile, Varzi has come to the intensive care. Get Well Soon!

You are right, that´s my opinion, too. Unfortunatly Mr. Varzi dos not agree. We´ll see... :-)

I have also attached two impressions of the first outdoor use: the machine is frost-proof. Which I can not tell from my steam engines.


Soon the first function test will begin - as soon as I have found the escaped Varzi and the stolen crystal knob.

Just rang the night courier:

The first copy of the oncoming mass production has arrived. Not made in China, but in a suburb of London. I'm so excited! Will unbox it tomorrow!
