Nothing, I just need repair parts but I have a feeling they're going to be a pain to get ahold of.

Still nothing. I knew this was gonna be a pain.

Gotcha. Well, give it a minute. Did you contact Futaba Japan? Or Futaba USA?

Call them

Call them

Nah I contacted them on the USA site. I’ll probably give it a couple more days before I try and call them.

It seems my Redcat has taken residency in Phoenix . It was supposed to arrive the 28th, since the 1st it's said it's In Transit in Phoenix, no additional movement since. I've contacted USPS on it, which I'm sure they'll have no information. I guess I just wait it out and maybe one day it'll show. I could contact Redcat, but it's not their fault the mail system is breaking down...

I guess now I have to keep the Phoenix distribution on my radar and avoid it with any future orders, if I can.

I'm sure its all in my head but it seems like if I check tracking on a package, some guy runs out to a truck, rumages thru 100 or so boxes, then finally finds it, pulls it off the truck and confirms its location. Then it takes another 2 days for it to get reloaded on to another truck.
Whatever happens, if I check tracking, shipping takes even longer.

Hopefully that Redcat will crawl Onward to Guinevere!

I'm buying one through Amazon. I've never had shipping issues with them, but I do have Prime, so that may be the difference.

my boss turned the air compressor on this morning. it has a leak in the line between the compressor and tank. so every 13 to 18 minutes it kicks on and runs for about 40 seconds. and while i wouldn't call it loud, it gets annoying. he's now done using it, but if i shut it off he'll restart it for some minor BS reason in about an hour and leave it on even though he won't need it anymore today.
i need a vacation.

POV: when your alone in the shop and the air compressor kicks on.

It's scary

Mom's Malibu. 6 yr old engine. Only 25k miles on the engine. 4th cylinder around the head gasket is leaking when turned off. Not leaking when running. Weird.
