We'll my fellow pilots and Squawk friends, a major catastrophe occurred today that is gonna set me back on my heels with my RC flying.
I haven't been as active on the forum as I normally am do to preps in getting the homestead ready for my daughters wedding.
The catastrophe has now upped the ante and my time spent on RC flying or time on this forum is gonna get shut down probably for the rest of the year.
What occurred was a garage fire where half my fleet and all batteries and RC support equipment and my truck and the RV and Harleys and tools etc, etc, etc were a total loss.
The fire investigators determined that a 12V car battery charger that was charging my marine deep cycle battery malfunctioned and lit the joint up.
Between the truck and motorcycles and three 5 gal gas cans ALL of them full and all the lipos(25+) stored near by, there was no saving the structure.
They had all they could do to save the house.
RIP Tigercat and Lightning, Bronco, Skymaster, Razorback, Aunt Ju and Annushka, Phoenix Spitty and Dauntless, LX P-40E and LX PBJ-1 and PBY :Crying:
TJ.........sorry my friend but I got to pull the plug on my participation in the Giants Festival in 2 weeks cause the four I had ready are in the list above.:(
So when you think you've had a bad day............think again. I've beaten cancer 5X and this set back I can beat too;)
Writing this little forum exodus note is a form of healing therapy. I'll stay in touch but not on a daily basis. See y'all in a short time my friends.:Cool:
