Sometimes luck happens.  Fuck me you do talk some shit.

You are both right. A couple of lucky arrows make a difference but not 34 points.
Sometimes when you take break you forget some bad habits that crept in to your shooting.

Archery - be warned. It makes no sense. Missus pantyfire hasn't shot for about 2 months. She went to the club thursday night and blew her Portsmouth (type of target and comp) personal best out of the water by about 34 points.

Sometimes a break helps to clear out the psychophysical detritus.

I find this with golf.   In other RC related news I think i might get one of AR Drones that you control with you iPad, they look like fun.

I made a cardboard and duck-tape phone holder for my Galaxy SII and stuck it on the wing on my Mini 8 and made a lil video

Youtube video quality is awful, the original is really crisp but was 44meg and I aint hosting that.

The cardboard case I made is really effective.

Loving the car turtle, more vids please.

MD80 mini dv camera I had one for bottle rockets and they're pretty good for a tenner.



The onboard footage uses one.

Pay day on Friday and I can feel a scourge coming on.

Why is your car black, needs more stickers.

I like plain bodies. I was thinking of getting a generic decal sheet of motorsport logos off ebay, I dunno. Probably gonna get another clear shell and spray it neon pink

Some ESCs come with fans now. Fans! Certainly has all come a long way; I've enjoyed reading up on how things have advanced and am kind of tempted to get something just to fanny around with in the back garden to see if I'd still enjoy it.

If any of my fellow DJing forumites are interested in giving Ableton a go Dubspot are giving access to their course away free until the end of June. I've just done the first module which was really clear and concise, some of it was a bit over explained for myself but would be essential for people who haven't DJed before. Ableton 30 30 course

It's a doddle. Set default warping to complex, make the first hit 1. Check 5, 17 and so on, make sure the markers 'on' after any breaks... save. Track warped. I don't bother any more, I just do it 'on the fly' in about 6 secs.

Cheers man, really enjoying Ableton at the mo

Put a Saturator and a Limiter on the send for each channel for a loudness boost without clipping (getting in the red). Ableton can seem quite low compared to a DJ mixer or Traktor. Also, avoid Ableton's native effects for DJing with, you can spot the flanger a mile away.

For producing it's much less faff than Logic, it's just a different way of working and it can seem like a pile of shit at times, but the methods for getting the maximum use from Ableton make a lot of sense. It's a great tool, as you can play an arrangement live into it, then go back and edit your work, so you're not sitting there for hours copying and pasting. It really is so much quicker, it's just less methodical, but requires a rethink if you're in the Logic or Cubase 'way of thinking'.

Sonic Academy in Belfast are the best. Much more direct and more clued up than Dubspot.

Nice, cheers. Gonna stick through this dubspot thing as its teaching me the basics well, if a little ott at times, didnt really need 5 minutes on what low end is.

Will get on sonic academy next week sometime I reckon.

Just ran it at the local BMX pump track. Pump tracks are really tightly spaced (cause they're for pumping not jumping) so the 2s lipos were a bit much. I could only ride them smoothly on about 1/4 throttle. I clered a double a couple of times but it was messy. Still, next to the pump track is an aaaawesome wide dusty area for doing donuts on and speed runs  

I shot some vids, just need to edit them now.
