Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3Compare7.5 reviewThe Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 truly deserves its name for its among the largest handsets to ever see the light of day sporting a massive 6.3-inch 720p screen. Providing processing power is a dual-core 1.7GHz processor backed up by 1.5GB of RAM for smooth multitasking performance. With an 8-megapixel camera on its back, the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 should be a decent snapper given the right circumstances, while that 1.9MP front-facing cam will come in handy when you're in the mood for a video chat. There are also 8 or 16 gigs of on-board storage, 3200 mAh battery and LTE connectivity.+ View Specs

Samsung GALAXY Note IICompare9 reviewSamsung Galaxy Note II sports a slightly bigger, 5.5-inch display, a quad-core processor that gets rid of the slight lag in the original Note, and best of all Android 4.1 Jelly Bean right out of the box. The Galaxy Note II is armed with a brighter and larger 5.5" HD Super AMOLED display with resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels. While this means that pixel density will be slightly lower compared to the original Note, in reality, the image quality shouldn't suffer any losses, as this screen used the standard RGB matrix, instead of PenTile, which means more subpixels, and ultimately – clarity. The bezel is slimmer, so despite the increase in screen size overall the device is not bigger. Powered by the same Samsung Exynos 4412 quad-core processor that's also found in the Galaxy S III, but clocked up, to the whopping 1.6GHz, the Note II will have no trouble running any application you can think of. The G Note II features an 8-megapixel back-side illuminated (BSI) rear camera and a 1.9-megapixel BSI front shooter. The Samsung Galaxy Note II will ship in three versions - a 16GB, 32GB and 64GB ones, with memory expandable via up to 64GB microSD cards making it possible to have as much as 128GB storage. The second-gen Note is coming with a humongous 3,100mAh battery that should get you through the day.+ View Specs

THE code of loyalty among delinquents, prison inmates, criminals, and certain oppressed minority groups is a Well-Known social phenomenon. This code of behavior represents not only the acceptance of socially deviant group values but specifically Prohibits a member of the group from Consort-ing with members of other groups, especially those representing "authority." A breach of code, resulting in the apprehension or Punish-ment of other group members, is likely to result in social ostracism, ridicule, physical punishment, or death for the transgressing member. Such epithets as "stool pigeon," "stoolie," "rat-fink," "teacher's pet," "asskisser," and "brown-noser" are reserved for those individuals who cooperate with authority figures responsible for controlling or modifying the behavior of the group in which these individuals belong. Of interest is the ambivalent attitude of those in authority toward "informers." On the one hand they are dependent on these people for vital information; on the other hand they regard

Fermilab Joint Experimental-Theoretical Seminar
Date: Oct. 24, 2003
Speaker: Stefan Westerhoff (Columbia University)
Title: "HiRes: Mapping the High Energy Universe"
The High Resolution Fly's Eye (HiRes) Experiment measures the energy spectrum, chemical composition and arrival directions of cosmic rays above 1018 eV. By mapping the Universe at these highest particle energies, HiRes will help to bring us closer to an understanding of where these particles come from, how they are accelerated, and how they travel astronomical distances. Located in the dry atmosphere of the Utah desert, the HiRes detector consists of a large number of focusing mirrors that image fluorescence light from distant air shower cascades onto arrays of photomultiplier tubes. HiRes comprises two detector sites that provide stereoscopic observations of cosmic ray induced air showers with unprecedented energy resolution and angular resolution. In addition to a discussion of recent measurements of the energy spectrum of cosmic rays, this talk will focus on first results from stereoscopic data. These include a measurement of the primary chemical composition, and a search for anisotropies in the cosmic ray arrival distribution, with emphasis on the highest energies, where previous experiments have observed clustering.

Featured Golf News
Quick Facts About Golf Courses
Editors Note: The Golf Course Superintendents Association of America recently released a series of articles related to their organization and members, golf courses and their roles in the environment, and other interesting tidbits. Heres the first in the series.
A properly repaired ball mark heals completely in 2-3 days, while an unrepaired ball mark takes 15-20 days to heal properly.
A typical 18-hole golf course covers approximately 125 - 150 acres of land.The total landmass of golf courses in the United States equals about one-half the state of Connecticut.
A typical 18-hole golf course produces enough oxygen to support 4,000 to 7,000 people.
Golf courses nationwide combine to filter 13 million tons of dust from the air every year.
Who is the most important person at a golf facility? According to a 1997 survey of 500 Golf Digest subscribers, the golf course superintendent was listed the most (48 percent). Other responses included the course/club professional 25 percent, club/course manager 14 percent, beverage cart or halfway house person 11 percent.
Golf courses have a cooling effect during the hot summer months. The average temperature on the golf course in typically 5- 7 degrees cooler than a residential area and 7 - 15 degrees cooler than an urban downtown setting.
The infield of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is home to four holes of the Brickyard Crossing golf course. The remaining 14 holes outside the oval are accessed through a tunnel under the track.
Golf courses delay play on frost-covered turf (especially greens) because stepping on frost-covered grass causes the frozen leaf cells to rupture. The turf will turn brown and eventually die.
The Old Works Golf Course in Anaconda, Mont., is the first golf course built on an Environmental Protection Agency Superfund Site. Designed by Jack Nicklaus, the land served as a smelting location for the mining of iron ore. The golf course opened in June of 1997.
Why do golf course superintendents aerate turf? Because it reduces compaction on a golf course by removing soil cores from the ground, allowing the movement of water, air and nutrients to the turf roots. Highly traveled areas plus poor soil composition creates compacted surfaces.
What is the origin of the stimpmeter? In the early 1900s, a man by the name of Edward Stimpson was looking for a means to create more fairness in the game of golf. Specifically, he was looking to make putting surfaces on a particular course all relatively the same speed. He developed the stimpmeter to achieve this purpose. By using this device, he could determine, for example, if the fourth green was the same speed of the 17th. The device is often misused and misinterpreted by the novice and avid golfer alike. It is best used to compare greens on the same course, NOT to compare greens from one course to another.
How much has technology and research improved speed and quality of a putting green? In the early 1960s, professional tour event superintendents cut putting green turf heights at about one-fourth of an inch. Today, the height of putting green turf for professional tournament competition is one-eighth of an inch or less.
How do trees affect the quality of a putting surface? All things being equal, a putting green with air circulating around it will be in better shape than a green with little or no air circulation. Trees tend to reduce circulation, thereby having a negative effect on putting green quality. Older, more mature trees adjacent to putting greens will negatively affect surface conditions because the tree roots will grow under the putting surface and disrupt the flow of water and nutrients.
What is a golf course superintendent doing when he/she syringes a green? Syringing is the process of spraying a light cover of water on a green during hot weather to reduce the temperature of the turf. This prevents putting surfaces from becoming baked and dried-out, and having a negative impact on putting surface quality.
What is topdressing? It is the practice of spreading material over a putting green to level and smooth the surface. The material is generally sand and/or organic matter that improves drainage, controls thatch and maintains biological balance.
Golf courses have a positive impact on the economy. It is estimated that more than 25 million people annually spend 2.5 billion hours outside, playing one of the nations 17,000-plus golf courses. The impact of golf facilities on the economy is $20 billion annually.
Quotes About the GCSAA
Previous Old Tom Morris Award Winners
Byron Nelson
I think the job the superintendents have done is the biggest improvement in golf today. The demands have caused it, yes, but also the education that the superintendents have now in agronomy and such (is critical). What I like is that golf course management has become so good universally.
Tom Watson
In this day and age, a golf course superintendent must be an educator, scientist, agronomist, economist and a good people manager. If you put all this together with a love for a piece of earth, then youve got a good golf course superintendent.
Robert Trent Jones Sr.
To golf course superintendents around the world I owe a great debt, and every architect owes a great debt. We can only continue to provide these great golf facilities with well-educated professionals to maintain them.
Miscellaneous Quotes
Jack A. Vickers, President Castle Pines Golf Club/International Charities, Inc.
Perhaps no one adds more to the success of the game of golf than does the golf course superintendent at each facility his/her job insures the appearance of the course, and when it is selected as a site for a major golf tournament, showcases it to fans of the game throughout the world via television. Through my long association with my good friend Jaime Ortiz-Patino, I have come to have an even deeper appreciation of the role of the golf course superintendent and, in view of this, I want to join Jaime in promoting this program to benefit golf course superintendents.
Mark McCormack, former CEO International Management Group (on golf course management)
Operational efficiencies, the establishment of profit centers and agronomic conditioning are now taking a front seat, right along the general purpose of a club. Having a superbly qualified superintendent is a critical requirement today, and his or her stature in the club hierarchy is rising accordingly.
Director of USGA Green Section Construction Jim Moore
"I believe there has never been a time when golf course superintendents have played a more important role in the game of golf. The business of maintaining a golf course has become much more complex and expensive."
PGA TOUR pro and course designer Hale Irwin
I think one trend that we have had little discussion about in the industry is the way in which golf course superintendents across the country have made our playing surfaces really, really good.
Golf legend Arnold Palmer on GCSAA and its members
"The Golf Course Superintendents Association of America and all Golf Course Superintendents are probably the most important single entity that we have in golf...The conditions and the golf course's beauty, the environment, the wetlands, everything depends on their perseverance and their knowledge and the work that they do to maintain the golf courses."
Arnold Palmer in Golf Magazine Q&A
Q: What are the biggest changes you've noticed in the game in 45 years?
A: The conditioning of golf course is so much better today. The one place everybody enjoyed going to so much was Augusta because it was always immaculate. But today, you have those impeccable conditions everywhere .

ROBBINSVILLE — Council Vice President Vince Calcagno and Councilwoman Sheree McGowan will seek re-election to their four-year seats, the pair have announced.
The slate said their campaign slogan would be "proven community service," and they touted their success in bringing Amazon and the McKesson Corp. to the township under tax incentive plans.
In a release, the pair said Robbinsville's government must focus on a business plan for the south side of Town Center that is "fair to both commercial and residential interests."
They said the township needs to address the changing recreational needs of residents.
They added they would "continue reviewing and implementing open space policies" to ensure "a proper balance between preservation, residential, and commercial development."
In addition, Mayor Dave Fried has announced that he will run for re-election.
According to the state Election Law Enforcement Commission website, no opponents have yet filed to run against Fried, Calcagno or McGowan. The deadline is Sept. 1.
HAMILTON — The New Jersey State Building and Construction Trades Council has endorsed Democrat Barbara Plumeri's mayoral run. The council represents over 150,000 building and construction trades workers.
"On the local level, we have endorsed only building trades members who are candidates for local offices, with the exception of Barbara and a small handful of others whom the Building Trades consider one of our own," council President William Mullen wrote on June 14.
Plumeri spoke before over 600 members of the council at its 109th annual convention this month.
Plumeri described her selection as humbling and an honor and said she would work to put more trade's people back to work in Hamilton.
Plumeri will face Mayor Kelly Yaede, a Republican, and independent candidate Antonio Gambino for the unexpired two-year term this November.

More Colorado Pictures (we leave to go home on Thursday and I am sad/excited to see M and my puppy!)
Before I went on vacation, I had an abundance of summer produce that I needed to use up. I always seem to end up with a ton of zucchini and while my first thought is always to make zucchini quick bread, I wanted to make something slightly different.
I love savory breads and I had this great cheddar sitting in my refrigerator. So, I combined the zucchini and cheddar, threw it into my favorite bread, and voila: a delicious bread that is amazing!
This bread is great for hummus sandwiches or even grilled cheese sandwiches. This bread even freezes well!
- 1 1/4 cup warm water
- 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3-4 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 cups zucchini, shredded
- 1/4 cup sunflower oil
- 1/2 tablespoon salt
- Topping:
- Oil and extra cheddar for topping
- In the bowl of a stand mixer combine the water, yeast, and sweetener- give a quick stir and let sit until yeast becomes active (5ish minutes.)
- Stir in oil, salt, cheese, and zucchini, and 2 cups of flour. Start bread with the dough hook.
- Add 1/4 cup of remaining flour and continue to slowly add flour (1-2 tablespoons at a time) until dough pulls away from the side of the bowl. Let run for 8-10 minutes. This will give you time to adjust flour and let the dough knead. Remember- you can always add flour but you can't always take it away. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky. Cover with a damp towel and set aside to rise for 1- 1 1/2 hours.
- Once the first rise is over, knead a couple of times into the form of a log. Place in an oiled bread pan, cover again and set aside for about 1 hour. With 30 minutes left, preheat your oven to 425˚.
- Once the loaf has risen the second time, brush with oil and sprinkle with cheese. Place in oven and if you have a bottle of water, mist the bottom of your oven a couple of times to get some steam going. Shut the oven door and let bake for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 375˚ and continue to bake for 30 minutes. Bread should have a golden crust and sound hollow when tapped. Remove from pan and let cool until you slice it.

Google Gears Ends as Separate Project
Gears Team project manager Ian Fette revealed in the Gears blog why development on the product was stalled for months: the project is to lose its independence because the effort on Gears was to become part of HTML5 and Chrome.
The newest version of the Google Chrome browser from end of January already has a number of APIs that have similar capabilities as Google Gears, as was revealed in the Gears API blog. Examples are database and storage APIs. In other places, namely in the recently developed HTML5 standard, features such as application caching were introduced where coverage through Gears is also redundant. The Gears project has survived so far by promising support for Firefox 3.6 and Internet Explorer, but development is coming to an end. The Safari browser for OS X Snow Leopard and later already no longer works with Gears.
Google Gears consists of a browser plugin and an API collection. The project started in May of 2007 as a kind of patch to make web apps available online. A note to new projects: Ian Fette adds in his blog that no migration possibilities currently exist for Gears apps.

Selflessness: the unspoken code of the Private Dick
I laughed a lot and thought of all this laughs to come this week, like I do every Monday morning. At this point, I was living only for my own gain, no thought to thee strife of others or how I might help them with their unfortunate outcome on the terrestrial craps table we scramble around on. Allah's die giveth, and then grabbeth right back. This all became real to me when I found this.

hi im selling 10 mountion bikes selling 1 bike for $180 ok i have 10 mountion bikes and want to sell them for $180 for 1 and if u want to buy 1 wrighte me back thanks chris
Hmmmm. This looks like it could be a mystery worthy of fueling up the mystery machine, even at $.84 a litre. I try to be diplomatic in my appraisal of just about everything. So, I'm gonna do some holistic research before I grab my overcoat with a flourish and tell my secretary to hold all my calls for the day.
there are two different possibilities the reason this person has come to sell 10 bicycles. Possibility A and B.
Possibility A- A collector and avid cyclist has found himself in dire financial need and is forced sell of his entire stable to make ends meet. It's already painfully obvious that his savings for further education in the field of freelance "wrighting" has dwindled. If I understand correctly, he has taken the $1800 value of his entire fleet given an equal value to all the bikes. This is probably for accounting reasons. This is perfectly legitimate and there is no need of my sleuthing prowess.
Possibility B- All of these bikes have been procured from their original owners and the current custodian has no idea of value of the whips and is selling them in the least imaginative fencing scheme known. I must contact this man and identify the bicycles, before he is contacted by the wrong people, cornered and stoops to bashing their headsets in, a la low life, Keith Barton.
I realize these are on opposite extremes of the spectrum of reasonable possibilities. Don't make me remind your the extreme nature of my diplomacy in rationalizing. It's to late, now, anyway. I've made contact with the vendor for the sake of, not only in memory of my dearly missed Rock hopper, that I believe found it's way to the fishy depths of Charlottetown harbour by nefarious hands...
Anne: bike scourge of Green Gables
It's now with a pat on the bum for my assistant and a flourishes of wool/poly blend that I set out to get to the bottom of this. My newly donned altruism will be deterred by neither ghost guised theme park owner or syndicated bike thugs. I hope I get to pistol whip someone, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Only to Church on Sundays...
Truth in advertising is commonplace in this neck of the woods, because defenses that start with "Caveat Emptor" usually get cut of with stiff one to the kisser. Pitter, patter let's git at 'er!
"I have a really worn 307, 423,000 kms. Mainly all i used this car for was getin rite out of er and slamin it from reverse to first, and first to reverse, This car will certialny handle a dry rev of the worste kind. 7 passanger rumble seat in back, great party car. prob rear end is nearly shot , but that would be the leasts of my worries with the transmission, reverse and second gear still seem to be there. there is still 2 trips 2 town on the back tires, and it is welded posi. Will trade for army tank, elan, phazer, cavaier, 4wd, ford sit on lawn mower or a 1979 panatera 5000( must have cleted track) . 3200.00 obo, may consider other trades."
I don't like sports so much as geek rap. These guys on the other hand have an appreciation for both.

Slow Moving
Gorgeous Gary Duguay Production Corp. (I added the .Corp for nefariousness sake) has taken the grande prize at the prestigious Acadie Underground film festival (the longest running Super 8 film festival in the modern world) for the last 5 years. GGDP.corp has had a strong hold on this medium (media?) for far too long and there no arguement that it's a time for change. I've taken it upon myself to take on this behemoth and wrench from his steely grasp the jury he's held so long in sway and I'm gonna get the hundred bucks prize money. It is unfortunate that Gourgeous Gary is a friend of mine (as is his vessel Rick), i will consider this when my time to gloat has come.
Now, I'm not expecting to get out of this any better than James Wood got out of his predicament, but I've applied my couch time to film school 1oh1. A moderate course load and proper class preparation are key. I've included some inspirational and educational film selections below.
Lone Wolf and Cub(Kozure Okami) - Rule of thumb for blood in film: Volume, volume, volume!
Justice Stress(Romain Gavras) - Keep the audience engaged, and then give them what they deserve. A punch in the face!
The Icicle Thief - Even if you haven't seen The Bicycle Thief(Vittorio de Sica). Perceive perception. It's all yours, do whatever you want with it... or is it?
La Jetée(Chris Marker) - Low-fi is easy, inspirational and damned good.
Forbidden Planet(Robby, The Robot) - (x) = Awesome, if x= Legs, invisible monsters, ray guns, and strong arming.
Elevator to the Gallows(Louis Malle) - Your film may not be famous (just super cool!), but there is still history to be made. i.e. Miles Davis's "TEO" as soundtrack.
Besides all of this preparation I do have a trick up my sleave. I've aquired my own top of the line, fancy pants Super 8 camera(placing mere decades behind the modern equivalent) and it's equipped with "Slow Motion Technology". I'm now capable of filming silent movies of beautiful women smoking in black and white at 30 frames per second. The best $10 I ever spent!
Do some homework and I'll await your inspired suggestions.
A good bloggeur will borrow ideas...
A great one will steal them!
I think any of you sticklers for continuity will have notice I'm not so good with schedules. I've been conducting an experiment in procrastination, that's all. I guess I'm just not a real Bloggeur. I'm not sure if you all dig post that are in frequent to the point of 8 word per minute spasms or daily updates with no regard for quality, coherence, or bike relation. I'm going to experiment now with the latter.
Since, my last post there has been a robbery for which there is no insurance. In memorandum here some good music for bad people.

Until I start getting some contributions I'm forced to ration my awesoments. Until tomorrow. Whether you like it not.

Playing Geisha for a Day in Kyoto
By Emma, Australia, March 2013
There are many studios in Kyoto that offer Maiko makeover plans, a photo session and the chance to walk around the city dressed in your full garb. While western-looking women are rarely going to be able to pass themselves off as a genuine Maiko, it is part of the experience to be the center of attention, whether you look like the real deal or not!
Editor's Note: This recommendation was taken from our Kyoto Things to Do blog. Visit the original post to continue reading the full post and to learn more about things to do in Kyoto.

SW Troy Street - Capitol Hwy to Capitol Hill Rd
The Traffic Calming Program undertook a Streamlined Speed Bump Project in the Winter of 1994 on SW Troy Street between Capitol Highway and Capitol Hill Road.
The goal of the project was to enhance street safety by reducing the 85th percentile speed of vehicles using SW Troy closer to the posted speed limit. Speed bumps are the only device considered for streets like SW Troy, which are classified as Local Service Streets, are not transit or primary fire response routes and have vehicle volumes between 400 and 1700 vehicles per day. Speed bumps have proven to be effective tools to reduce vehicle speed without impacting access. It is not an intended goal to reduce traffic volume on low-volume Local Service Streets.
SW Troy Street serves a mixed single family residence and apartment neighborhood. Capitol Highway, to the West, is a District Collector. Capitol Hill Road, at Troy's East end, is a Neighborhood Collector Street. A significant percent of the daily traffic on SW Troy Street is believed to be cut-through traffic en route to a traffic signal at Capitol Hill Road and Barbur Boulevard.
Open House
All residents along SW Troy were invited to an open house January 10, 1995 to review and comment on the proposed bump installation. Eighteen households were represented at the open house. All those who attended expressed approval for the proposed project. A petition was available at the open house for residents along SW Troy to sign and was circulated after the open house by a local resident. Of the 82 households along the street, 63, or 76.8%, signed the petition requesting speed bump installation.
Four 14-foot speed bumps, at 419 to 453 foot spacing, were constructed along the 0.42 mile stretch of SW Troy in March of 1995 by the Bureau of Maintenance.
As the graph shows, vehicle speeds, previously concentrated between 29 and 34 mph, have been shifted into the range of 20 to 25 mph. The 85th percentile vehicle speeds measured before the project ranged from 28 mph to 41 mph. After bump construction the average 85th percentile speed was 25.2 mph and ranged from a low of 22 mph (near the bumps) to a high of 28 mph. After bump construction the 85th percentile speed measured was 28 mph.
Traffic volumes measured before bump construction were 1400-1500 vehicles per day (vpd). After bump construction volumes measured 1000-1100 vpd. Adjacent streets that were identified as unwanted diversion routes showed no significant increases in traffic volume.
Traffic Calming on SW Troy has successfully reduced the 85th percentile closer to the posted speed and enhanced street safety.

'Reality Show' chronicles network shuffling
The subhead of Howard Kurtz's chronicle of network news intrigue "Reality Show: Inside the Last Great Television News War" is fitting in its finality: The book chronicles the past four years of anchor shuffling, starting with Brian Williams taking over for Tom Brokaw and ending with the reinvention of Katie Couric as CBS' great hope.
But as evening news auds decline and their average age creeps north of 60, how much juice remains in the story behind the tectonic wrangling for these three anchor jobs? Kurtz told the New York Observer he set out to do a book about the "wrenching transformation after two decades of Dan, Tom and Peter."
But that was before Bob Woodruff was injured in Iraq and Leslie Moonves hired Couric, making the period exponentially more interesting. Those elements made for a juicier end for the book and, quite possibly, the end of an era.

When after the RX setup routine I reduced the swashmix to 40% for all channels to tame the heli it helped a bit and now only a small interaction is left but this way the overall collective range seem a bit limited.
Martin said his RX doesn't behave this way and he can subtrim individual servos as normal.
I'm just trying to get some feedback from others too to see if my RX is an oddball or what?

You put me in doubt, so I plugged the battery and played with Subtrim, you'r right, when you give e.g. AIL subtrim, the PIT servo also move, but not as much as the AIL, I can subtrim a big 90° on AIL but the PIT servo only move a few °, this is not enough to worry about that, you just have to put back 2 or 3 clic Subtrim on PIT and all it's level.
The rx2612V of the 4F200 is really worst than that, the subtrim really move both servo......., making it very difficult to level.

OK, thanks for taking the time to check! I'm glad I was not imagining things. Yes, fortunately the movement is small and can be overcome with opposite subtrim. I just wish it wasn't there at all since we should always try to use as little of it as possible.
So it seems after subtrimming and running through RX setup at 100% swashmix my current limits for swash travel are +-10 collective and +-6 cyclic before interactions start to show. I got this by setting swashmix to 30 for ail end ele and 50 for pitch. I guess it has to do for now. I'll fly the heck out of it and see how it does.
Not having any experience with FBL helis so far, am I correct in assuming that a FBL system heli doesn't need as much swash travel and cyclic for the same agility as a FB system?

For the collective pitch, this is the same with flybar or not.
For cyclic pitch, normally on a flybar head you adjust for around +or- 7° with the flybar level, however when you fly the heli and give cyclic input the flybar tilt, wich add additional cyclic pitch, somewhere in the 12°.
On a flybarless heli you can adjust your cyclic for +12-12 then test the roll and flip rate, if it's too fast or too slow for what you like, you can readjust it.
To adjust your RX2702V, do not put 100% for ''PIT'' value, set it first for +10/-10, then multiplies that value X 2 for AIL, ELEV, once the setting is done, readjust the swash AIL, ELEV only.

I haven't tested to see if it was the motor or esc but I am 99% sure it is the esc that fried on mine. I replaced temporarily with an align 35A esc, BL450M motor and same 14T pinion and the head speed was insane. Not really to my liking. Now I have fitted Turnigy 40A Plush ESC, Typhoon 2215 motor and a 12T pinion. The setup is a joy to fly. I have run 6 packs through it and the motor and esc barely get warm. If desired another tooth or 2 on the pinion to increase head speed is unlikely to be any problem at all.
Aside from cheap screws, some soft alloy and the random burnout of esc's/motors I must admit, Walkera have made a damn fine heli for the price.

Belt tension...
I removed the small pulley on the tail section which pushes down on the belt. Belt tension is much better and it is now running much more smoothly for me and no problems or binding after approx 40min of flight time.
Wanting to pull the trigger on this in a BNF version from Wow for only 285 but it's so cold out I couldn't even fly it

I got my v450d01 a couple of weeks ago. The first flight was awesome...but after that parts started failing and I do not fly 3d. On the second flight...I noticed some problems with the the elevator and had to put it down fast. Turns out two of the swash servos were slipping. I took them apart an no gears were stripped...instead, a couple of the gears no longer made good contact. So I replace the servos and was testing it out this weekend. I was in a hover at about 10 feet when the outside casing of the motor popped off in mid flight. It dropped like a rock, but no damage thanks to 4 inches of fresh snow!
Still... I love this heli... Though it is my first 450 size and I must admit, I'm looking at trex helis in the classifieds now.
I bought the v450 from wow hobbies and I sent gem an email over the weekend asking if they would be willing to replace the motor for free and give me store credit for the servos since there were so many part failures and the heli is brand spanking new.
I know some people hate wow, but they've been good to me and I have nothing bad to say about them. I'll let you all know how they respond to my request.

It was good day
Great to hear positives from everyone- they've always been very responsive w any issues I've had as well.
I am shocked over the problems you've had with a brand new V450.
Must say this regarding mine - every screw/nut on the bird was locktited.
On any of my 400 or over, we always locktite everything. Last thing anyone needs is mechanical failure on a flying lawnmower. some people call it a slingblade, i call it a lawnmower. ; )
Worst enemy any helicopter has is vibration.
The 450 helis scare me enough ~ when they are WORKING!
I've had to literally tell myself outloud "BACK UP!" as with smaller classes I bring them on in close.
This V450 has the most wicked rotor sound. Pretty much wakes the neighbors if doing a hover test in the driveway.
Re 450 class as a whole ~ yes very stable and very flyable for an intermediate pilot. The only thing to consider is the very real caution when flying these monsters.
The park where I fly the 1#A is just not suitable for the 450 or G5.
Too many looky-loos that will come right up close (dogs are even braver) and that's not their fault at all. So many regard these as 'toys' and we all know better.
Always love this line - Hey that's neat, where can I buy one? Until now, all the 450+ size models where kit helis.
Now anyone can go on a hobby site and buy an RTF monster.
I think a warning label or the like should be on the big bird descriptions so that beginners stay far away from anything this powerful.
With a 3 axis flybarless head, the bird is very stable, will hover hands off, but can be zipped around at breakneck speeds. One wrong move and a V series can be on you in a fraction of a second.
I don't mean to grandstand, but since our hobby is evolving daily into a much friendlier flight environment, it's probably not a bad idea to remind ourselves to use caution.. : )

Don't let it get away!
Keep track of the stocks that matter to you.
Help yourself with the Fool's FREE and easy new watchlist service today.
Things never get dull for the country's lone satellite-radio provider. Shares of Sirius XM Radio (NASDAQ: SIRI ) moved slightly higher on the week, climbing 0.9% to hit $3.38. The media darling's gain wasn't as strong as the 2.2% Nasdaq pop, but there's no point in complaining about a positive run.
There was more going on beyond the share-price gyrations, though. Auto sales for June clocked in strong, and that's naturally good news for Sirius XM down the line. Majority stakeholder Liberty Media's (NASDAQ: LMCA ) push for Time Warner Cable (UNKNOWN: TWC.DL ) may happen with Sirius XM playing a significant role. Weeks after striking a deal to broaden Sirius XM's reach, Ford (NYSE: F ) expanded the global reach of its SYNC AppLink platform with a deal in China.
Let's take a closer look.
Car sales are revving up
It was a good month for new-car sales, and that's huge, since the sale of new cars with factory-installed satellite receivers is the lifeblood of new subscriptions at Sirius XM. Ford's U.S. sales soared 13% in June, just above the 12% that upbeat analysts were targeting.
Sales were strong for the company's SUVs and flagship pickup trucks, but a major driver has been the smaller fuel-efficient cars that drivers are turning to as a way to save on gasoline consumption. This is an important move for Sirius XM, because it doesn't want to lose subscribers who give up driving as a way to save on high fuel prices. Smaller, gas-sipping cars keep folks on the road and subscribing to Sirius.
Malone moves
It's no secret that Liberty Media mastermind John Malone has his sights set on Time Warner Cable, and we know he isn't afraid to shake his assets to make things happen.
There don't seem to be any fears that Malone will dump Liberty Media's roughly 51% stake in Sirius XM at the moment, but The Wall Street Journal argues that Liberty Media's valuable stake in the satellite-radio giant may come into play here. The financial publication's "Heard on the Street" column on Wednesday suggests that Liberty Media could potentially borrow against its stake in Sirius XM to consolidate Time Warner Cable into its existing cable television assets.
Either way, this is a matter that Sirius XM investors will want to keep an eye on in the coming months.
Ford steers east
Ford became the first automaker to make Sirius XM's streaming offerings easier to use, with last month's announcement that Sirius XM's MySXM and SiriusXM On Demand will work with Ford's SYNC AppLink. Now Ford is turning its attention to the world's largest market, teaming up with China's leading search engine and third largest wireless carrier to beef up the platform's presence in China.
The move naturally doesn't have any immediate impact on Sirius XM, which is currently restricted to the North American reach of its satellites. However, as Sirius XM expands its streaming service, there is little stopping it from becoming a global force. Staying chummy with Ford will come in handy if SYNC AppLink evolves into a popular platform for Chinese developers.
A Sirius future
It was an interesting week for Sirius XM. The new week isn't likely to be dull.
Sirius XM has the potential to be an international player in a few years, but there are other companies that are ready to cash in now. Profiting from our increasingly global economy can be as easy as investing in your own backyard. The Motley Fool's free report "3 American Companies Set to Dominate the World" shows you how.

Flyers feel less welcome overseas
VAQ-132 Scorpions from Whidbey Island Naval Air Station spent June through December flying missions in the Middle East and Mediterranean, and Cmdr. Bill Reavey said a lot has changed since the last time he was there.
The sentiment in the Mediterranean is not what it was, Reavey told Oak Harbor Navy League members Tuesday, sharing recently declassified information from the deployment. The Scorpions were based on the aircraft carrier USS George Washington in the Mediterranean
In the debriefing Reavey said sailors were attacked on the streets while on shore leave in Crete.
A lot of people dont view us in friendly terms overseas anymore, he said. I was surprised and disappointed.
As the court of world opinion increasingly disfavors U.S. military action in Iraq, the NAS Whidbey Island-based VAQ-132 crew was flying into the eye of the political hurricane.
During 108 fly days and 66 days either in transit or in port the electronic attack squadron participated in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan and Operation Southern Watch in the no-fly zone of Iraq.
The Scorpions had the opportunity to fly over both Middle Eastern countries, and while both are mostly desert, the contrast was striking.
Iraq looks like the garden state compared to Afghanistan, Reavey said. I really feel bad for those people, and what they went through under the Taliban.
For OEF the Scorpions were on 24-7 alert, flying long hours in support of Special Operations.
Reavey said the long flights, some up to eight hours, took their toll on the aging EA-6B Prowlers. One of the jets is 30 years old. With age comes increased maintenance and increased worry.
An oil leak over hostile territory is a big deal, Reavey said.
He commended the efforts of the enlisted support crews on board the ship that kept the Prowlers flying.
Reavey also said the Prowlers have a goal of providing better support for conventional ground troops, and working closer with the Navys tactical electronic reconnaissance squadrons.
Were working together to bring a better fight to the DoD (Department of Defense), he said.

The internet generation grew up with two new beliefs: Everyone is an authority, and all information should be free.
And those two new-media mantras — particularly the second — have been driving the old media mad ever since.
Because if everyone is an expert, why should I read you? Or pay to do it, when I can find other writers' stuff for free?
"Page One: Inside the New York Times" watches as one of the nation's largest and oldest papers tries to figure out the answers.
The documentary is especially interesting to anyone concerned about journalism, communications and technology. And occasionally, it's especially frustrating, too.
Page One: Inside the New York Times (R) Magnolia (88 min.) Directed by Andrew Rossi. Now playing in New York.
Rating note: The film contains strong language and sexual references.
Stephen Whitty's Review: THREE STARS
At times, it takes a too-encompassing view, trying to cram discussions of Times scandals, WikiLeaks, the Tribune bankruptcy, corporate downsizing and reporter David Carr's back story into 91 minutes.
At other times, it takes an overly narrow approach, totally ignoring the criticism that gave birth to blogs to begin with — that cosseted, comfortably biased big-time journalists are out of touch with readers.
The single but very welcome rebuke to that overprivileged image here is Carr, a raspy-voiced wreck of a man who emerged from alternative papers (and a drug addiction) to become a Times media reporter.
He's a passionate defender of traditional journalism, and particularly biting on the subject of "aggregators." (At one point, he drily displays a picture of what one prominent website would look like if it could only run its own content; it is a page full of holes.)
Almost single-handedly — as he gives a pep talk to barely employed writers in Minnesota or savagely cuts down a too-hip-for-the-room "new media" reporter — Carr makes "Page One" worth watching.
Still, for a documentary purportedly about a legacy institution trying to compete in a changing arena, there's very little footage of its journalists actually doing that, or any sense of how the internet in general has altered how they work.
Yet even if this film about the news business doesn't, ironically, offer much news — there are far too many interviews with talking heads sticking to their own worn-down talking points — it does provide a snapshot of a changing industry.
And, perhaps, a twofold call to arms.
First, to newspapers, which need to find new ways to interact with readers, entice advertisers and enlarge their approach as to how they get and disseminate information — while still holding on to their mission.
And second, to readers, who need to find a way to encourage them — or risk a grave new world where journalism is nothing more than cute-kitty videos, Kim Kardashian gossip and some guy on a virtual bar stool, yammering endlessly into the night.

I have been trying to buy David Wilson at a low price. Best I can do is giving up Gio Bernard. I already have Andre Brown stashed on IR, which is the other reason I've been looking at Wilson - less risk with Brown on my team. It's a PPR league, also has a small amount of points for returns (1pt for every 100 yds).
What do y'all reckon? I'm leaning toward taking the punt on Wilson, Giants running game seems like it could theoretically be just as productive as the Bengals, especially if Dalton starts to regress. Da'Rel Scott got released this week, Wilson probably had his best game of the year last week... Am I high?

RECIPE: Great Solution For Leftovers
Make this delicious "Fallwich" with your
Thanksgiving leftovers.
|Here's how to combine all of those Thanksgiving leftovers into a delicious fall sandwich or "Fallwich," created by Marjorie Drucker of the New England Soup Factory in Newton, Massachussetts. The recipe is a winner in this year's The Ultimate Cranberry Recipe Contest for foodservice professionals, sponsored by Ocean Spray.
– Cut six-inch-long slices of baguette for sandwiches (or buy good hero rolls).
– Whisk together mayonnaise and cranberry sauce in a 2:1 proportion and spread on each half of the baguette.
– Add spinach leaves to the bottom slice, then layer with sliced turkey breast and roasted sweet potatoes.
|– Sprinkle some honey-roasted cashews on top.
– Season with kosher salt or sea salt, and freshly-ground black pepper; then add the top slice of bread.
– Serve with a cranberry spritzer: cranberry or cranapple juice mixed with club soda (or try Cranberry Fizzy Lizzy). It's a delicious sandwich, even if you have to start from scratch, without leftovers.

IF THERE'S a silver lining to the sordid, expanding cloud that has cast a sickening pall over Happy Valley, it's that Penn State will emerge from this scandal a safer, more transparent university.
That's the plan, anyway.
Yesterday, a committee created by the Penn State Board of Trustees tapped former FBI Director Louis Freeh to lead an independent investigation into the Jerry Sandusky child-sexual-abuse allegations and into the sluggish response - or worse - by university officials.
"Society is rightly outraged about reports of innocent children being preyed upon with impunity - and for so long," said Ken Frazier, chief executive of Merck & Co. and chairman of the committee. "People are asking completely valid questions about why actions were not taken that might have saved any of the victims from harm."

I was very excited when the assistant choir director came into the sacristy before Mass today and told me we would be processing to the introit, followed by a short hymn, instead of singing the introit as a prelude, as is often done. I was excited because this is something that just doesn't happen at my parish (until now). Not that we're a bunch of chant haters or anything, it just doesn't usually happen.
Then when Mass actually begun and they started singing, it just felt so… so… right (probably because it is right. The introit is the ideal music for the procession at the beginning of Mass…)
And since we sung most of the dialogs of the Mass (as we should), almost everyone caught on to the new responses after only the second week! Hmmm… maybe there's more wisdom than we think in the church asking us to sing the dialogs of the Mass…
Here's the music we had today at St. Patrick's in Madison at 11:00 am Mass:
- Introit: Populus Síon, From the Graduale Romanum (cf. Isaiah 30: 19, 20)
- Hymn after the introit: Comfort, comfort, O My People (cf. Isaiah 40: 1-8)
- Offertory: 1) Comfort, ye, 2) Every Valley, and 3) And the Glory of the Lord (Isaiah 40: 1-5) from Messiah (Sung straight through without stopping, as it would be preformed)
- Communion: English adaption of Jerúsalem Surge (the proper communion chant for Advent II) (Bar 5: 5; 4: 36) (Verses from Psalm 147?)
If there's any choir members reading this (and I think there is a few), I want to thank you. These small things mean more than you'll know to many of us down here. It means so much to know I can go to Mass and hear almost all the texts the church gives us for the different parts of the Mass, and to hear scripture when the proper text isn't used.
Keep it up, Cathedral Choir. Keep it up.
Next week… there's some big happenings. A woman is being consecrated as a Consecrated Virgin for the Diocese of Madison.
It has the liturgical complexity of an ordination, and it's a very interesting rite. I'm excited.

The Big TREEsy Giveaway will distribute 1,000 native Louisiana trees on Jan. 5 from 9 a.m. to noon at Joe Brown Park, 10900 Lake Forest Blvd. in New Orleans. Trees will be given out at no charge to residents of New Orleans, eastern New Orleans, and Orleans Parish to help in the restoration of their community following Hurricane Isaac.
This is the fourth event planned over the upcoming months that include four other Louisiana parishes, which are St. Bernard, St. John, St. Tammany, and Jefferson , with the goal of giving away over 5,000 trees.
The event will also include a seminar on proper tree planting and care provided by the City of New Orleans Department of Parks and Parkways.
This Big TREEsy Giveaway is a program by Hike for KaTREEna, a non-profit organization with a mission to replant over 100,000 trees lost to Hurricane Katrina, and now Hurricane Isaac. Hike for KaTREEna is a member of the 2013 New Orleans Super Bowl XLVII Host Committee's Environmental Committee. The Environmental Committee is charged with executing all environmental initiatives for Super Bowl XLVII. The trees have been generously provided by a grant from the Apache Foundation, philanthropic arm of the Apache Corporation.

WASHINGTON — Experts at the Federal Aviation Administration are expected to say next week whether they recommend accepting Boeing Co.'s plan to fix its troubled 787 Dreamliners so the planes can resume flying, the agency head said Wednesday.
Experts in the FAA office that certifies new planes as safe for flight are reviewing a Boeing proposal to revamp the 787's lithium ion batteries to prevent them from catching fire, or to protect the plane in case of fire, Administrator Michael Huerta said.
Once he receives the experts' evaluation, it's still up to Huerta to decide whether to accept the plan. He declined to say when he might make that decision, or how long it might be before the planes are back in the air.
"It's a very long proposal, a lot of technical detail in it," Huerta said. "I'm reviewing it myself, as well as relying on the teams that are reviewing it."
The planes have been grounded since Jan. 16 after one battery caught fire and another began smoking during a flight.
Calling the plan "very comprehensive," Huerta said Boeing engineers worked with outside experts to narrow the potential causes of the incidents to a few possibilities, then redesigned the batteries.
The 787 has two identical 32-volt batteries, each with eight cells.
Investigators have said the incidents began with short-circuiting in a single cell, leading to a chemical reaction that causes progressively hotter temperatures. That spread the short-circuiting and fire to other cells.
Boeing's plan includes redesigning the batteries to prevent individual cells from catching fire, Huerta said.
Should that fail, the plan includes steps to prevent a fire from spreading to other cells or outside the box that contains all eight cells.
