Hate to say it but Google has a vast answer to the question "small flexible plastic bottle".

Yep, my wife had both eyes done via SpaMedica and had no complaints at all, also a plentiful supply of tea or coffee plus biscuits.

Just to add that the NHS outsources a lot of cataract work to the private sector so do ask to be referred outside of the NHS to ensure prompt action.

I'm no expert and use a Turnigy i6 which is the same as your model. From what I read about upgrades the reason most people seem to have done it is because it mainly increases the number of channels from 6 to 10. And no, I haven't done it myself, six is more than enough for me at the moment.

Would hiring one for that task be a cost saving? You can often get a good 'Weekend' rate.

What Spray Paint For My Balsa Glider?
Brian Sweeting 1 replied to Greg's topic in All Things Model Flying
Just to add my two-pennath, the experts appear to not be able to read the manufacturers correctly which makes them assume too much. The instructions, as stated above, state that "you CAN apply covering". Can is not shorthand for SHALL so I quite agree with Greg in asking a simple question and expecting some civil answers. I am a similar age as you Greg and we are always learning, if allowed. Good luck with the operation. -

Try "RC receiver switch" on ebay, lots out there. -
BAN on Model gliding on Dartmoor
Brian Sweeting 1 replied to Wookman's topic in All Things Model Flying
An update from our local paper today in Newton Abbot aboout the Byelw revisions proposed. "among other measures the revised byelaws will include: No person in charge of a dog shall cause or allow it to be exercised on Access Land other than under effective control and, if directed to do so by a Ranger, must keep the dog on a lead. No person shall operate a powered model aircraft or drone on or over Access Land unless they are authorised to do so in writing by the Authority." There is no mention of gliders or kites etc so perhaps the have quietly dropped that threat. -
Searching for a mini lathe
Brian Sweeting 1 replied to Jon H's topic in Model Engineering and Accessories
I bought a lathe from Chester Tools about 7 years ago and it has proved pretty good. Research I did at the time showed that yes, most of these ma hints are made in China but ones retailed by the UK virus had been specified by them and quality controlled by them as well. I would suggest that you buy via a UK tool supplier as you will have access to local backup and extra or improved parts as your usage grows. Of course YouTube is a great source of info on these tools as well. -

Well found and we now know that at least one person enjoyed their holiday 😉 Looks like a good spot though. -
