While I was digging for some inspiration for a new 3d model I happened across the Accurate Dalek Model by user Audrey2.

I recently picked up a set of PolarPro’s Cinema ND and ND+Polarizer filters for DJI Mavic drone. They come in a nice box supported in foam but are a bit fiddly to get in and out.

I was watching a video on 3D Printing Nerd’s youtube channel where he was printing a Pac-Man ghost (video at the end of this post).
It made me think that it could be fun to do something similar.

So although I have a couple of basher trucks and one high speed buggy - I didn’t have a good slow/powerful rock climber truck.
After digging thru a fair number of sites - I decided that the Axial RR10 looked like a fun build. I decided to grab the...

So - this holiday in addition to normal presents for the kids and since I was going to be at home with them for some days while my wife was at work I grabbed Anki Overdrive as a “something to do when the kids get bored”.

Down at the stables again today - and once the kids had ridden - I wanted to try to fly. Last weekend it was too windy.
