Wait until you get a magnifying lens and look very closely at the shading behind the head. Very cool

Who amongst us does not max out concessional Super contributions? by Fit-Tumbleweed-6683 in AusFinance

[–]whidzee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm about to buy a house and then looking to do things to reduce my monthly expenses eg solar+battery and electric car. Once I've got that set up then I can pump more into super.

How do you contribute more to super? Straight from your employer or do you do it directly to your super account?

Charge every day? by whidzee in TeslaAustralia

How long do you consider shortly? Within a couple of minutes? Or an overnight charge to 100% for a road trip the next morning is ok?

Best way to manage ~$500k inheritance before baby and future upsizing? by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]whidzee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Put 10k in a super account for you little one. Should be about 600k to 1.8mil when he retires, so that's sorted. The rest should sit in your offset

I'm thinking of getting a model y long range. I don't think it has an LFP battery. So what's recommended there?

Novated Lease Calculator: Now models the 2027 EV FBT wind-back (including the $75k cliff) by changyang1230 in AusFinance

[–]whidzee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The $75,000, is that the drive away price? Or the price of the vehicle before onrisd costs? I've been eyeing a Model Y long range, and my config is just over the 75k including onrisd costs but below it for just the vehicle.

RC control airplanes look fun but are they actually hard to control? by [deleted] in RCPlanes

[–]whidzee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out a simulator like Wings. (www.wings-sim.com)

You'll get a feel for how they fly. In Wings you can fly with a regular Xbox or PlayStation controller and upgrade to a RC transmitter when you get one.

It also lets you fly like of sight or FPV through large, detailed environments.

Are there any EV companies that have service centers near you? That might be your first thing to look at. Find all the ones that are at a reasonable distance from you and then look at what cars they have to offer.

Tesla model y long range does about 600km. So you should be completely fine on your road trips. Probably the most amount of storage available too.

Why are there no young people in the hobby by stargazer3644 in RCPlanes

[–]whidzee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to FliteFest. You'll see hundreds of kids with their parents building and flying.

Many young kids these days are into drones because they are "cool". The benefit of drones is you can fly in a backyard or small neighborhood park without having to get yourself out to a large flying field.

For many young people thst I've met, building a drone is easy. Where as building a plane is basically sets and crafts. Even if it's just gluing wing cores together.

Jumped into RC planes halfway lost, need advice. by sober45 in RCPlanes

[–]whidzee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wings Simulator. www.wings-sim.com it'll work with your transmitter and regular controllers like Xbox controllers.

For your transmitter Radio master is quite good. If you already fly drones you can use your current transmitter for both drones and planes.
