Just a few feet away, three of them hanging with me the last few days.

Being Mexican iguanas, they probably like jalapeños.
I can confirm that they do. :lol:

Looks like a biter
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

Don't feel bad, that's how all of mine end up as well. I can count all the ones I've crashed on one hand. The only thing I can fly are gliders.
Old school racing all the way!

:lol: That looks very familiar.

I have repaired worse. Not because I am good but because I had a LOT of practice. The cool thing about foamies is that all you need is glue and occasionally part of the original foam packaging to repair just about anything. Don't use CA unless you test first. CA often has the same effect on foamies that water has on cotton candy. Make sure you check the balance after you repair it. It will be nose heavy with the glue, especially if you use hot glue. I usually used silicone caulk, same as you would use to seal a bathroom sink.

Edit: Why am I telling you how to fix something? :oops: I have seen your amazing builds. You don't need any help from me.

Made the drive from Pukekohe to Taranaki (about 4.5hrs) to go to WOMAD.
World Of Music And Dance.
3 days of international cultural performances.
Full of fringe dwellers and weirdo's, my kind of place.

It's probably the most chilled event I've ever been to, very family and so relaxed
Recommend it if you're in the neighborhood.

Just another few days of procrastination before I carry on with not finishing my projects.
You can summit it without too much serious climbing gear, too late this season, people have done it wearing Crocs.

About 50 miles due west a large uncontained wildfire with the sunset backlighting the smoke.
High winds from the west were blowing ash as far as the house.
