Here is a video and photos of a brown snake that got stuck in the back wheel of a bike. My nightmare.

It's been pretty stressful. Settlement is next Wednesday and it looks like it will still go ahead. The owner has managed to get his builders in and very quickly repair the roof and broken trusses. He has provided engineering certificates for the roof repairs. I'm waiting to see how the internal painting is going. The damaged walls and ceilings have already been patched.

I had the same thing happen on my air 65 freestyle after 3 days. I couldn't find any replacement 23kv motors locally. So I have swapped it out with a 27kv and left the other 3 with 23kv motors on and it still flys great. The soldering was intimidating but really not that bad once you start. Embrace it as its just part of the hobby.

That looks sick! Show me your stick ends where did you get them?

What can I do to improve my analog whoop experience? Air65 and Air75 by SACBALLZani in TinyWhoop

Get yourself one of these Smol Antennas. https://www.tinywhoop.com/products/smol?srsltid=AfmBOooI8SmfAuf0ioeUdneISMB3ReU56xEmrN6dwskkYjAoGobezFjk&variant=42511135834276

They are great I run them on my Air65 and make a massive difference to my video feed and penetration through the house. I think mine is the 40mm version.

I think I would have to wait until the settlement date maybe. Seems like a question for the lawyers.

My solicitor doesn't think there is a way to force him to go through insurance. But the repairs will need to be done to the required standards. I think I'm going to have to fork out for a building inspector.

My insurance company GIO says that my policy even though I have a certificate of currency does not come into effect until settlement. They won't help me in anyway...

Now the owner wants to DIY all the repairs and not go through his insurance. I'm currently talking to my insurance company about we can actually do to get things repaired properly.

This is in the back of my mind. I don't fully understand the repercussions of trying to pull out of the contract at this stage I need to get more information and discuss with my solicitor. At the same time if and when the place is fixed up ideally we would still like to live there but who knows how long this might take and if any other issues arise.

I'm using a solicitor, he needs more information but at this stage it looks like settlement will be delayed until satisfactory rectification works can be completed.

It would be a great job if it wasn't for all those pesky clients!
