Just a side note...Mike are you O.K. with us moving forward on this?

Certainly!

And send that ESC back with a note requesting a Lipogard and we'll swap it out for Snipah.

Hi David, Just a FYI, there is a distinct disconnect with the punters on not expecting an ESC to be with the SD kit, versus you including one? Thats great but should be clearer. I went and bought one from the UK already reading one wasnt comming with my SD order. Its here on my desk.
What I do need is a Lipo-Guard. Can we swap that bit out / over?

Thats a small part of what Tom (Trout) and I will do to help straighten out for your devoted fans! Just a bit of a fun project!

Next Order for you is a Gato SD kit and fittings. I will place that order when I know 1st is departed the Caswell-Merriman drydock b4 you get more of my hard earned :-)
Theres a heads up for stock holding :-)

Have a good day

What that man said! ~nods~

and more importantly Dave can finish my order ~smiles~

Caswell-Merriman is awaiting ESC's from the UK. Your, and others, parts are on the table, assembled, ready to go but for the ESC's.

hahah Alec, your the prime living Chaos theory example! Go be random! Can you honestly see Dave or Mike changing? Honestly? :-D

If this is done how we are thinking, then all your searches should point to the right place! > X < marks the spot!

If you saw my work station & bench there would show a cause for understanding chaos... :o :) some years ago I was made to fill out one of those clever n deep phsyc & personality profiles for work. Which according to the outcomes I am one who likes reseach, exploring etc so I find using the search function in its basic form like a smorgasborg table. Plenty of stable diet but allways more to nibble at and feast on. I applaude any body who wants to collate, copy, text, macro, hyperlink etc this forum with such abundant information.

In short, I enjoy what is here & how it works but I would support those who promote, create and give us change. I only ask that should change happen please leave Mike & HWSNBN unchanged :biggrin:

Ok I'll hop of my soap box & put aside my placard... because now I have to go back to work :(
I need more time... to make more time... but I can never find the time!!!

Yes, a FAQ. That would be the most useful thing to start with. Answering those same questions asked again, and again, and ....

It will be exciting to work with Brett and others. I think the Gato and VII are high hit rates for new builders to old builders. I will contact Brett and we can hash out topic ideas.
We can also go through the volumes of data and create a list of most common issues (like trimming sub, how to wire your wtc, etc.) and create a FAQ.

David and Mike your hands are full, I can speak for myself (but I think Brett would say the same) the goal is to improve the site and not be a burden to the both of you (but also keep you in the loop and final say so).

[He Who Shall Not Be Named]

Mike, I like it. What say you, old wise one?

Yeah, the Type-7 and GATO are always hot topics, why not?

And thanks to Brett and Tom for standing tall here.

More than happy to work with Trout to help, leave the magicians to do their thing.
All we need to do as, Mike just pointed out, is ensure the "links" created are valid.
That would beat having to move posts from one place to another. Mike would just have to adjust his censorship rules just a tad :-)
Preferably to this one section if it can be done?

Plan stage one. Create Sub Topic headings as discussed within its own section. Some of the links are out of date as an example.
Let Trout and any other learned folk that wish to help, point out, post relevant info links.
The community will help out, it will be a board project.
We just need some keen folk to be able to be editors of said postings releaving the tedium and extra workload of the owners.
Some articles can be re-written with new up to date photos if needed as some of us may have software appropriate.
Can we start with Gato and TYpe VII? :-) It can be the "Test" for David and Mike and we can fine tune it.

Make sure this new section is up somewhere near the top of website.
Call it our apprenticeship period, just dont call me Dobby the house Elf!

Something like that! Thoughts?

Clear as a muddy bottom?

What's your plan?

David

[trout]

I would be glad to help out.

[He Who Shall Not Be Named]

And a 'fresh set of eyes' going over and collating this stuff would be a service to all. Who's game?

I'm such a wealth of knowledge I've lost the ability to determine what is important to you common air-breathing types out there. You know what's important to your work, I don't. Pick and chose the 'good stuff' and put it out here, front and center. Leave the old, re-hashed stuff in the moldy boxes you find it.

David

It has occurred to me on many an occasions that certain 'instructions' are duplicated or re-hashed. Perhaps this is an opportunity for Trout and others to build up a set of generic instructions, and in those they could put HTML links to the originals?

I could make a special section and they could copy and paste into it.
