I’m in the middle of the channel between Ireland and the UK .. surfing at speeds of 700kps+
Such is the beauty of technology these days .. even for a techie geek like myself, sometimes I am just amazed of how much we can do these days.
I am aboard a ferry heading to Dublin (from Holyhead) .. and to my surprise they had DSL speed internet access over wi-fi .. the price ? £4 per hour .. not bad at all !!
I have taken some pictures, and will post them later.
So I decided to see if it will fit the LST2 as well
And sure enought .. it fits !!!
Now, keep in mind the following .. I am using
- Flextech Arms .. which are WIDER than standard
- Mugen EXTENDED 17mm hexes
And it still fits .. the top camber measurement just fits with maybe 1-2mm to spare .. so on a standard LST/2 will fit even better 
Here is a picture of the extended hexes
Now, before people start wondering … what about 20MM hexes ?
Yes it fits !!!
Yes, it’s a 20MM hex (blue) .. while the hex is 20mm, the nut is a standard 17mm .. so fits just right
Just a small note
In order to do the camber on the front, you will have to use the taller setup towers in the front instead of the back, so it wont hit the shock tower
Not a problem, since they are interchangeable
Today I got a M-Racing setup station from lee @ Rapid RC for my 8T truggy
I have never used one before, so I was unsure what to expect .. when I got home I set it up, and after reading the guide at m-racing site ( http://www.rc-setup.com/rc-setup-guide.pdf ) and setting the station up .. all I can say is .. WOW
I fell like I been trying to tighten a Phillips screw with a flathead before .. in a way, this setup station just made me feel like a fool, how I was trying to judge camber by using a ruler .. and never quite getting it right .. this takes guesswork out of the equation and makes such a crappy job (I hated to fix the camber and toe-in/out ) a breeze.
This is how the setup station looks ..
(got this image off an ebay US auction)
I just grabbed a few quick images of my own, the 8T is still dirty from last week’s races .. sorry :p
Now, on these images I have it on top of a Ultimate mat, I would not recommend doing it on top of it, the mat is too soft for it, it needs a nice (and flat) hard surface.
Just a fantastic tool .. I just had to share my view
Last year, I sold my Canon 20D and lenses, and instead bought a Nikon P1 as a pocket camera.
The Nikon was a disappointment from Day 1 .. utterly junk .. while some other people I know that use it love it, I just think it’s not good enough to please my eye.
Now I am back on the hunt for a new camera … I decided I do not want a DSLR .. I need something smaller .. but not as small as a P1 .. as the smaller optics will never please me.
At the moment I am torn between the following
The S3 & G7 have no RAW .. and the Pro1 has much better lenses .. but it’s a 3 year old camera .. older technology, not as good on higher ISO
I have done countless searches and research .. I just cant find one that will please me .. if the S3IS has RAW & the Lenses starter at 28 like the Pro1 .. it would be the perfect match .. then again it would be called the Pro2 .. but damm Canon is so focused on the DSLR’s that I dont think we will ever see a Pro2 :/
Decisions … Decisions … darn it …
