This is the second day that I have had the RC 9081!
I think that it is an amazing peice of kit, I mean come on - its RC, its fun, its cheap, and it freaking flys! What more could you possibly want? haha! ok, there is quite a bit more that you might well want - but that is not the point!
This is my brother that is holding the camera (thanks Darren) - and its me that is flying (got the control in the hand anyway haha!).
Now, you might say “that it is not exactly doing very much to be quite honest with you“, but, I mean, come off it - its the second day that I have had it!
Here’s a quick video of me flying the 9081 helicopter in my kitchen!
So, I have been up most of the night, and all of today, how insane must I actually be?
I found out the most ridiculous thing today. Every single Saturday of my life, there has always been a posty walk past and sometimes put something into my door. But, it has never ever occurred to me that the postman in the little red van - never comes on a Saturday or a Sunday. I was expecting my loverly RC Helicopter to arrive today as that was the length on the postage request - but it turns out because it was only First Class normal postage - it gets held behind until Monday.
Now, I see this as completely ludicrous. The guy paid first class, for something that is going to take longer than second class - and surly if the people on the bikes do it on a Saturday, why on earth can the van drivers not. I see it as the best time to do it to be quite fair with you. I mean, most people don’t work on a Saturday, so that means that people will actually be home when the guy goes to deliver it.
I had my parachute on ready for my first flight, but, it seems that I am going to have to wait till Monday evening to even USE the god dam thing. I wanted a weekend of fun with it. What makes it even WORSE is the fact that I required 8 AA’s for the transmitter (handset), so I decided to buy 8 rechargeable batteries, now, I thought “OK, it is going to be getting here tomorrow, so I better make sure that these god dam batteries get here on time, or I am just going to get angry!). So, I paid extra cash, which now shows me that it was a complete waste of cash. I just love wasting cash, and my time….
