Non-typical Saturday in Norway, Florø

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

This Saturday me and one of my buddies decided to go bathing on an island close to where I grow up, named “Terrøya”. He got is own boat and his family own a part of this island with a beauty full beach. Take a look:

The sea was hot enough for bathing and we swam against some mountains were we could jump, 5-7 meters above the sea! pretty high. Luckily, the sea wasn’t shallow.

On the trip back we ran into a couple of guy’s “inspecting” the bow thruster. It seemed odd as it was an civil boat so I took a picture.

We didn’t get a glint of what they were doing, but it felt fishy.

Looking forward to a new sunny day as it tend to rain allot on the cost.

Tamiya TA05-IFS in house

Friday, July 11th, 2008

I received my Tamiya TA-05 car one week ago. Due to allot of work I haven’t gotten the time writing about it. It’s a pretty neat car and I’m pretty much done with the whole car. You can see some pictures of the build process below.

Electronics in use at the moment:
- 540-motor (stock)
- JR servo
- Kyosho 27-mHz (crap)
- 13 turns ESC
- 11.1v LiPo battery
