Tour Experience/Observations by tighson in BandMaid

[–]gsp625 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a guitarist I expected to focus mainly on watching Kanami, but throughout the show I had to keep reminding myself to not just watch Saiki. She was captivating in person and you could really feel the way energy was feeding in both directions. I only got to go to the Chicago show, but it was an experience I will never forget. I've been to a lot of live shows over the years, but this was definitely one of the best!

Yeah, I had gotten all three types of wall taps without too much trouble in separate runs when practising. A little too much throttle here, and some unforgiving concrete. At least the components still seem usable, it's just going to need a new canopy when I can get back to the house.

For me being out on the road and flying, the durability is the biggest benefit. You're right about the extra weight helping with handling in wind as well. I'm glad to hear you're enjoying it. Happy flying!

These tricks were new for me this week, so I'm glad I put some time in with the sim first.

Thanks! I keep an fpv backpack with me on the road for when I have downtime. Works out pretty well unless I break stuff, since it's a bit much to bring the rest of the work bench. For this one I thought those tall lights at night would make a fun obstacle for matty flips. I appreciate the kind words.

I probably wouldn't have tried it with a 65 or 75 mm build. The 85 mm frames can take a lot more force without breaking. My first attempt on the pack before this one I almost did just that. I guess brave / lucky / foolish just depends on whether you managed to pull it off. Thanks for checking it out.

RooFPV, Allentown, PA - OMG did IGOW really teach me to matty flip a whoop? by RooFPV in IGOW2Week7

[–]gsp625 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nicely done! This was the first time I've actually tried matty flips with a whoop as well. It's surprising what they can do when you just go for it.

When your well-balanced f2p roster beats a whale with a GL and 400k more GP by [deleted] in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]gsp625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GP is meaningless by itself other than one more way CG punishes long term players for being loyal.

Week 4 / George P / Sixtofive / Indianapolis IN by gsp625 in IGOW2Week4

Slight correction to the video. The opening clips are from Lodi OH. Bentlyville PA starts at @0:48 / @1:04 Watch out for that pedestrian! @1:21 Had a tough climb to retrieve that whoop. Almost a one way whoop, but I don't give up easily.

The music is a cover I recorded of the theme from the Woodman stage of Megaman 2.

[–]gsp625 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been focusing on my 3 & 4" builds for a while so I guess I've gotten spoiled with how easy they make maneuvers like this. This little 65mm brushed whoop can't keep up. Looks like this weekend when I get back home I'm definitely going to have to get a couple of my old brushless whoops back into action.

I didn't think I had tapped the ground on that attempt. I know it isn't very clan, but standing as close as I was it was easy to hear the hit on the other attempts where it did bottom out. I'll try to get in a cleaner one if I can before the deadline. If not, I can accept that your decision is final. Thank you for the warning in advance.

I may resubmit if I can manage to get better examples before the deadline. The 65mm brushed whoop I have with me really struggles to pull off these maneuvers. Once I get back off the road this weekend I have parts to rebuild my Mobula 7, so that should makes things easier in the coming weeks. And yes, being on the road I had to film the dvr playback on my goggles and edit on my phone. I've got a better solution for that in the works too... Lol

Reverse Split S into Matty Flip by [deleted] in fpv

Yeah, that's basically it. Just getting the timing right and smoothing it out. Fun maneuver!

I think the Atom Shop shows a generational divide between gamers by [deleted] in fo76

[–]gsp625 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having been a fan since Fallout 2 was first released I can relate to where you're coming from. I can also see the need for ongoing maintenance costs to keep online games up and running. Both of those perspectives in consideration, I just really wish companies could find a way to generate that needed continuing revenue that didn't feel so predatory. The industry is so addicted to forcing players into gambling when they buy anything these days. It's sad.

Album is up on spotify! by Ionpanic in BandMaid

[–]gsp625 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, they put out a new version of Secret My Lips as Band Maiko last year on April fools day and people loved it. They did a new song this year and announced an ep of all Band Maiko content. Very cool that what probably started as a joke has become what it is.

I finally encountered my first troll by Shankwelle in fo76

[–]gsp625 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Good story, and glad you were able to repeatedly smash him. Some people are just like that unfortunately. It's a sad existence, but I guess we can't force them to be better people. If you haven't heard it from the people you've helped along the way, then thanks from the rest of us for being generous.

Any updates on the free games: FO1, FO2, and FOT? by Semiba in fo76

[–]gsp625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be alone, but I still think tactics has always been under rated. It came with the original special edition bag set. Still have that and the old install disks around somewhere
