So I recently got into flying drones/quadcopters.

Bought a couple of them over my 2 week vacation.

Lil things are fun!

Glad to have the thing back. Can hardly wait to get the parts to bring the Sears back to life again too. Will be nice to have a backup.

That is good to hear. It is always nice when an item turns up unmolested like that. Unfortunately it isn't often that it happens.

I plan on getting a bit crazier than that with drones...my buddies and I have already decided we want 250 class FPV racing drones


looks fun

not the cheapest hobby to get into... probably going to have around $700 in a flight ready FPV setup.

(~$400 for the drone and ~$300 for the FPV goggles)

Sadly, I've have to use my girlfriend's AAA to get my truck towed home before. On my old truck, the trans went out and I had to get it towed...

Was nice to have my snow thrower back, we got between 4 and 5 inches depending on which weather man you happen to be listening to. My own measurement was only 3".

Still more than I wanted to shovel. The snow blower worked just fine.

Wouldn't be so bad if we had a snowstorm at the same time!
