Fast attack craft

Re-Yes I agree that you require a certain amount of knowledge I understand what you are saying Martin but young people these days have grown up with electronics and I don't think they will be scared off to easily. If my son (for example) wants to know anything, it's straight out with the and looking up everything to do with the subject (wouldn't bother to ask one of us fossils, except as a last resort😐). I've been using computers for around 33 yrs, and he's 26 and knows way more than I do. Like most people now, he has a computer () in his pocket every day. All we had was a phone glued to a wall and later (if we were lucky) a brick. JB

Batteries in a DX5e

Hi Doug, I think I was referring partly to cell phones here which use a data usage plan ( as do your home PCs for internet), you can choose anything from 60G to unlimited (s) which includes text, phone and internet. My phone is just a prepay, - phone and text,- as I have the computer -fibre connection- for internet (plan includes land line, email, 60G $75 per month) and never use internet away from home If I'm just doing this stuff I use very little but if I start watching movies etc, obviously I will use a lot more. As I said I'm not sure about the system there but am assuming it's similar. I don't like using apps anyhow as I don't trust a lot of sites for security reasons, as you so rightly point out. P.S was doing that in my sleep so probably was not making sense 💤 John.B

New Website Has Finally Arrived!

After a year of development and lots of coffees, we're live! So what's new? Everything! 💥 Emoji's everywhere! 👍 If you're posting on a you can use any number of 2,823 emojis (and growing every year). On desktop we add some of the most common ones to pick from. ⭐ New apps! The apps are now much more integrated and many of the previous bugs should now be fixed. 🔔 Notifications... based on what you're interested in. Many areas of the website have follow buttons, you can follow individual members, blogs, forum threads, events, anything you want! 💾 Auto-save posts... you can pick up a post you didn't submit on your desktop on your phone later on, or vice-versa! 📸 Uploads... photos can be uploaded directly, or imported from other accounts such as dropbox, google, facebook, instagram or twitter. 📄 PDF files can be viewed immediately 🎥 YouTube videos are embedded everywhere, you can watch any videos posted and browse the website at the same time. 👤 New ranking system, we've gone from 9 different rank levels to 20! Consequently some of you will have changed rank, but we remain fair, like with the old website your rank is based on the helpfulness of your contributions. 🤞 New "how-to" articles sections. Like wikipedia, these are articles which anyone can edit and add to. 🔗 Useful links can now be edited and added to. This section will update itself based on links posted elsewhere, but can be added to manually as well. 🛍️ Online shop has seen a complete overhaul. Currently 10% off everything! ⛵ Membership is now split into three categories. Anyone who has previously donated will be shown as a contributor and will have their silver good conduct medal. Subscribe monthly and you'll get a gold medal! There's lots more that's changed like faster performance ⚡, better email and push notification controls, map integrations 📍, ability to flag inappropriate content 🚩, login with facebook, email confirmations, captcha tools to reduce spam... on the whole I hope it all adds up to a much more fun experience and a friendlier, chattier community 😀 Stephen 😎
