Experience is something you gain only after you need it.
I wouldn't mind social media so much if it didn't involve people.

Okay, I get it, had to look at that switch on my dx7. I've always used gear switch for throttle hold.

I've got about a grand worth of Banana Hobby Petes spare ArtTech crap spares laying around the garage. In true redneck fashion I am trying to use this pile of crap up whenever possible…

You guys lack of imagination. It's clear that this "device" is simply pro-eco, environment friendly, recycle-able, McGuyver-ism.
