Here's one if you're interested in toy model aeroplanes. Good to watch on a big screen and sound.

No engine, powered by wind gradient.  Too much fun

Dang, that's incredible how that screams and climbs with no motor!  Toys just keep improving beyond my grasp. I lack the r/c required RC gene for that.

I've smashed a few planes, for sure. And I'm still not as good as Daemon there.

Thanks for that tip, Gizzo! That was  an enjoyable diversion for a rainy day. The comment "So evidently weed is legal down under now?"  pretty well sums it up. The other offerings on their channel ain't half bad either.

Thanks again!
So badass my Enfield's actually illegal  in India. Yet it squeaks by here in Virginia.

Great DR650 video, but sure makes me feel old. My viewing started with a fellow who invited me to gnaw on a dog's chew toy   so my jaw looks pretty.

Here is a funny 11-minute video explaining how the new BMW R1250GS and its new variable valve system is not all that great - along with its price, weight and a few other things:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cG8Z6RAaHb8&feature=emb_title

Saw that a couple of days ago. Whereas we [or I anyway] would think I'd achieved something by getting up there, it's all in a day's work for them.
No fear those lasses, have they?

What I find interesting is that they do it with cargo and a passenger on board. It begs the question "What is that stuff in the sack?" And why is it worth risking your life for on a cheap cruiser?  Its the same feeling I get when I see those covered trucks navigating the death roads in South America .
