Day 3818

 I woke up at 6 and gave up going back to sleep at 6:30.  I played games for a while and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  It was in the low 50's and the wind was blowing hard, so a walk was out of the question.

I surfed for a while and then decided that I needed to do something.  I decided to start by going through all of the RC stuff that was scattered through out the trailer.  I moved it all to the shed and organized some of it.  That didn't seem like much of an accomplishment, so I decided to work on the Hyper-Go.

I took it to the garage.  I'm going to keep the ESC and motor, at least for now.  The first step was putting XT60 connectors on the ESC and battery.  The battery was a little bit of a pain, but the ESC was pretty easy.  The I removed the receiver.  It was smaller than a Flysky one, so I had to remove some plastic from the inside of the battery box.  Then the receiver fit, but it was too tall.

It was lunch time so I went back inside, ate, and sat down to videos.  That turned into a fairly long nap.  When I woke up I had an idea for the battery box.  I used some Plexiglas that I had to make a spacer  that fits under the lid.  The result looks and fits well, let's hear it for the Dremel.  I quit when that was done because I need some parts.

I have stuff that I could do to the NASCAR, I just didn't feel like tearing into it.

It rained hard for a couple of hours around noon.  The wind blew constantly all day and the temperature never got above 62.  I watched videos until dinner time.  After dinner I took Abby for a short walk.  She had a good time.  She chased both a rabbit and a bunny.  She also got to play with a couple of dogs.  I got in a mile walk before I was too cold to continue.

Dinner was leftovers.  After dinner was videos and surfing.
